1. Of all the famous U.S. Supreme Court Cases, which do you think is the most important for today? Why?

Brown v. Board of Education.

It unsegregated schools, which is very important. If that was still an issue, many important people might not have gotten the education or experiences that they did if schools were still separate. Some other important cases may not have happened or have had the same outcome had certain people not been involved.

I think that Plessy v Ferguson is important because separation was a big deal back then but something is still happening to where all races are still not really equal. Some still may get hate from others. W haven't really got rid of the big issue which i think is racism because that is most of the reason why that happened but it is still not completely gone.

Plessy vs Ferguson because it involves segregation and segregation is a major part in today's life.

1. I think brown v Board of Education is the most important because it shouldn't matter what your outer appearance is we should all have the same rights and opportunities regardless of our race.

1.) The most important one is Brown v. Board of education because it allowed all race to go to school together.

My favorite U.S. supreme court case is Brown Against The Board Of Education, because I think it is most important to were we stand today. If there wasn't all races in classrooms, a lot of people would not be friends. Also I believe that race shouldn't matter everyone should have the opportunity to learn the same things. It doesn't make us just relative in school manner to our own race, it gives us opportunities we would never get to explore without this case.

1. I think the brown vs the board of education because it allowed all races to go to the same school. That helped because without this case many people would not have gone to school, or they would not have gotten a good education.

I honestly believe Bush v. Gore is most important because if Gore was president, we might have had much different lives than we do now. We might not have even been born if anything was different.

1. All of them are important, but brown vs the board of education is the most important. No madder what color you are you have rights.

my favorite supreme court case was the brown v. the board of education because i think that is a very big thing in our society, the whole black and white thing. i believe that no matter what "color" you are, or anything for that matter, you should be treated for the same about of respect and integrity as everyone else because we're all poeple.

Nixon vs US because he order someone to break into a building. So he got impeached and he was the first president to get impeached he also burned tapes and refused to hand over the other tapes and he lied.

My favorite case was the Brown v. The Board of Education. I think this is more important because it allowed a lot of people back then to experience something that they weren't used to. It may have scared people but it most likely canceled out a lot of stereotypes. it effects this world today because it has made people more open minded and comfortable with change. They aren't afraid to do things that they aren't used to, and that may very much benefit everyone. It let everyone get the same education, and no one got poor teaching because the color of their skin. this was probably one of the biggest steps towards everyone being truly equal.

All of them are important but to me the most important one would have to be Brown V. Board of education. I think this because without this case I wouldn't have many school friends. I am an African american and so I wouldn't be able to go to school with Caucasians. Many of my friends are Caucasian and we only hang out at school so without this case I probably wouldn't even be able to go to a public school. Without this case I probably wouldn't even be doing this bell ringer because one, I'm in a public school which isn't allowed and two, because when the schools were segregated they made sure that all of the African Americans had nothing and were in bad condition. Today this case has affected this world in many ways. One being that without this case we wouldn't have some of the famous people we do. Like Barack Obama I'm sure he wouldn't be president because he wouldn't have had the correct education. Although it is very possible.

Bush v Gore I just think it was kinda funny how Bush took Gores spot as president because Gore would've been president if Bush didn't call for a recount.

I my opinion , Brown V. Board of education is more important. Without that case i wouldnt have all the friends i do today. The majority of my friends are African American and i met them during school. If this case didnt exist then I wouldnt have the friends i do now, and that would suck. Also without this case African Americans wouldnt be able to get good education and thats not fair to them.

Marbury v.s Madison was a important case because it has to do with how they deal with the congress and the executive

I think the plessy v. fergonnson case was more important. I say this because it has to do with racism and that was a major thing back then
