Ever since Marberry v Madison the court has recognized “stare decisis” the principal that issues previously decided by the US Supreme Court should not be overturned unless to do so would “further” a constitutional right. By overturning Roe v Wade the present Court has abolished that principal and has inserted its own notion that if you don’t care for the precedent then overrule it-even if to do so is to eliminate a basic right that has been decided and affirmed over and over. These are not scholars they are advocates.
Lest this go unnoticed: elections count. Had Hillary won -and of course she did win the popular vote-Roe v Wade would still be the law.
