Yes, thats how the rule of law and limited government are supposed to work. Otherwise the the Congress could pass any law they wanted and just ignore the Constitution. The purpose of the Constitution is to establish the limits within which the government is supposed to operate. I personally think members of congress that ignore the Constitution should be thrown out of office. But that wouldn't leave many up there.

If the final courtroom have been to a technique or the different, hypothetically be certain that Obama replaced into no longer a citizen, that decision could nullify the 2008 election. it may be as though the election in no way happened. This actuality could eliminate the requirement of impeachment and conviction, that is meant for sitting, elected officers whose definitely elections to place of work have been valid. There could be no Constitutional disaster right here. the probabilities of the final courtroom, with 9 Justices, putting forward an opinion which would be desperate to be unconstitutional....is lots fetched at terrific...because of the fact the courtroom itself is particular with the job of figuring out suggested concern.
