[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why can't we put this on a ballot and let the people vote? End birthright citizenship - yes/no. Majority wins. [/quote] Because constitutional amendments require more than a majority. The process is laid out in the constitution. With that said, this ruling only affects universal injunctions, it doesn't address the merits of the case. It is silly to have a system where a single judge in texas can hamstring every democratic administration and a single judge in san francisco can hamstring every republican administration. The judiciary is not meant to be able to singlehandedly usurp the executive (or legislative) perquisites of other branches. It wasn't right when they did it to oabma and it isn't right now as a matter of procedural law.[/quote]
