What Does the Constitution Really Mean? Are liberals right when they cite the â€œelasticâ€ clauses of the Constitution to justify big government? Or are conservatives right when they cite the Constitutionâ€™s explicit limits on federal power? The answer lies in a more basic question: How did the founding generation intend for us to interpret and apply the Constitution? Professor Brion McClanahan, popular author of The Politically Incorrect Guideâ„¢ to the Founding Fathers, finds the answers by going directly to the sourceâ€”to the Founding Fathers themselves, who debated all the relevant issues in their state constitutional conventions. In The Founding Fathersâ€™ Guide to the Constitution, youâ€™ll discover: How the Constitution was designed to protect rather than undermine the rights of States Why Congress, not the executive branch, was meant to be the dominant branch of governmentâ€”and why the Founders would have argued for impeaching many modern presidents for violating the Constitution Why an expansive central government was the Foundersâ€™ biggest fear, and how the Constitutionâ€”and the Bill of Rightsâ€”was designed to guard against it Why the founding generation would regard most of the current federal budgetâ€”including â€œstimulus packagesâ€â€”as unconstitutional Why the Founding Fathers would oppose attempts to â€œreformâ€ the Electoral College Why the Founding Fathers would be horrified at the enormous authority of the Supreme Court, and why the Founders intended Congress, not the Court, to interpret federal law Authoritative, fascinating, and timely, The Founding Fathersâ€™ Guide to the Constitution is the definitive laymanâ€™s guide to Americaâ€™s most importantâ€”and often willfully misunderstoodâ€”historical document.
