Marbury vs. Madison Padlet by Mr. Meyer https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh Made with a quick smile en-us 2021-01-13 14:17:43 UTC 2026-02-23 22:07:19 UTC hello@padlet.com #1 Why did it happen? ameyer23 https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083102743 When Federalists were about to lose control of the government, they passed new laws that attempted to appoint many new judges that were friendly to Federalists.

When the Jefferson's new administration took power, he ordered James Madison to stop these new judges from taking their new positions.

Should the Government be responsible for judging what it can and cannot do? Should the Government be responsible for deciding when it has violated the constitution?]]> 2021-01-13 14:37:10 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083182101 Bella Ritchey https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083197710 No, The goverment is not a reliable way to answer that because they would be bias in the situation to simply if they were federalists or not.
I think citizens should be relied on more by the goverment if they have more knoledge, but them must be unbias in their statements.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:12 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083197710 Kayla Werline kaylawerline https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083198424 The government should be responsible for judging what it can and cannot do. For starters, the government knows itself better than anyone, so it would know its own laws and limitations. Next, other branches of the government could call out a part for "not doing its job." It wouldn't exactly be harsh, but it would be constructive criticism.

I do not trust my fellow citizens to protect our democracy. Now in modern times, our government seems to slowly be taken over by protests. If our government was "protected" by the people, where would we be? Our country would most likely would have fallen into anarchy years ago.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:19 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083198424 Dylan Lutz dylanlutz https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083198522 The government should be responsible for violating the constitution and for what it can and cannot do. The checks and Balances was made for the government to not have too much power and the government made the constitution as a set of rules they should follow them too.

I think people should protect our democracy, that way the government does not turn into a repeat of the British Empire.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:20 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083198522 Savannah Clark https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199051 I think that the Government should not decide what it can and cannot do. I think that they would bend that to there benefit. 

I would not trust my fellow citizens becase I feel that today there is a strong political divide. I think that this would cause people to be biased. I also think that some people would not be educated enough to make thses decisions.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:27 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199051 Nate Walls https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199187 Well, no, the government can't be the ones to judge whether or not the constitution that the government MADE. the government made a constitution that they thought would be best so they obviously wouldn't say that their OWN work wasn't good.

Nate W. Q. 2
I personally believe that almost every body in this life strives for power. Not only can we not trust them to try and use their ability of judging the constitution to get power, but that if they were educated in the government, the people would be able to find more full-proof ways to get themselves into a position of power. So, I would trust the people who are already in power, because they are already in a place of power so they would want to sustain that power.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:28 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199187 Nevin https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199284 The government should not be able to judge what they can and can't do.  They could be baised and say they should be allowed to do something when they really shouldn't be able too. 

Q2 I think the citizens should be trusted to protect our democracy because they can be relied on more.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199284 Kiley Zoeller https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199358 No, the government should not be responsible for judging what it can and cannot do based on the constitution. This is because the government will judge based on their opinions not on the constitution.

I do not think that our fellow citizens should be trusted to protect our democracy because I do not really think that the citizens are very educated in this. We are so divided right now I think that either side would use that trust to only benefit their personal opinions.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:29 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199358 Austin Perny austinperny https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199410 In the scenario there would be much bias no matter what party is in control, and that is exactly why we have a checks balances system. Each party will justify their own opinion, saying, "The president is the president for four years not three," while the opposite party can make an opposing argument. Hence, the government governing themselves would be a biased nightmare full of contradictory opinions.

I do not trust my fellow citizens to protect our democracy. We live in a whole different world now than Jefferson, and I believe that his quote is basically inapplicable. Media and news bias could not be worse than it is right now, with the majority of stations/sources sharing absolute lies that citizens blindly believe and follow. I truly think that Jefferson would agree on this: the majority of citizens of the USA are blind push-overs who believe anything that Lester Holt tells them at 7pm. ]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199410 Ashlyn Gillespie https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199997 The government should be responsible for what it can and cant do when it comes to the violation of the constitution 

I feel like the citizens should not be trusted to protect our democracy because some citizens are not that smart when it comes to this. They might not know enough and could just go with the the majority people say.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:37 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083199997 Ethan Smith https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083200804 I think certain people or groups of people that are a part of the government should be responsible for deciding when the government is being unconstitutional. The government most likely knows the laws and everything about itself better than some outside group.

No, I don't trust the other citizens of the United States to protect our democracy. The people are largely biased and a lot of the times when they don't get their way, they lash out. You see that with what happened at the capitol building. Not all people are "untrustworthy" in that regard, but the overwhelming amount of people that are would skew any system that could be put in place.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:44 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083200804 Lucas Mayer-Adams https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083201790 The government should be partially responsible for what it can and cannot do and when it has violated the constitution. The citizens should also be partially responsible for deciding what the government can and cannot do and when it has violated the constitution.

I would not trust present-day citizens to protect our democracy.]]> 2021-01-13 14:40:56 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083201790 Aundrea Fedrick https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083201808 The government should be responsible for what they can and cannot do.

They should not be completely responsible because then they would be bias towards themselves.

No, this is because the average citizen does not know as much about the government or what they are doing. Many are educated enough to make their own choices but there are also many that would do something for no reason and change the country in a way they didn't realize.]]> 2021-01-13 14:42:40 UTC https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083210581 Eric Ohm ericohm https://padlet.com/ameyer23/5vd0silbjax1g3mh/wish/1083213363 It’s not, because of Bias in The current, problem or
