Instead of the system that the U.S. Constitution intended, judges have created a system in which bureaucrats and appointed officials make most of the important policies. While the government claims to be a representative republic, somehow hot-button topics, from gay marriage to the allocation of Florida's presidential electors, always seem to be decided by unelected judges. What gives them the right to decide such issues? The judges say it's the Constitution.

Author and law professor Kevin Gutzman shows that there is very little relationship between the Constitution ratified by the 13 states more than two centuries ago and the "constitutional law" imposed upon us since then. The Constitution guarantees our rights and freedoms, but activist judges are threatening those very rights because of the Supreme Court's willingness to substitute its own opinions for the perfectly constitutional laws enacted by "we, the people" through our elected representatives.

I have read or listened to nearly every one of the "Politically Incorrect Guide" series since I first found Thomas E. Woods Jr.'s "Politically Incorrect Guide to American History". While all of these books are good, some are better than others. If I had to pick one for it's historical insight, accurate articulation of ideas and concepts, and fascinating evaluations of legal rulings, it would be Kevin R. C. Gutzman's "Politically Incorrect Guide to the Constitution". I would consider this book a "must read" for anyone interested in American History or the US Legal system.

The best PIG to date

While this book is called "the politically incorrect guide to the constitution " the intention of this book is to demonstrate how the supreme court has sought to the country and interpret the constitution as the judges see fit which goes against the intent of the founding fathers.

The supreme court vs the constitution

My respect for the law or lawyers has dropped two notches lower. Supreme court justices make up their own rules, no laws.
Biggest complaint: author does not define National vs Federal.
Looking the term up was not of any help.
Good book, worth a credit.

Supreme court unfair

I enjoyed this..Several areas are complex and need to be replayed. I recommend this highly.

Great!

Should not the narrator know the names of prominent people - like modern-day Supreme Court justices and mainstream radio personalities?

The narrator has no clue.

The recitation of U.S. Supreme Court cases tracked well as a review of my Constitutional Law course in law school. I enjoyed that part. However, as the author began to ramp up the sarcasm, his main argument began to be drowned out. It got to the point of, "thou doth protest too much."

Love the history; lose the sarcasm.

It's great to listen to a well reasoned argument for a morally bankrupt position. This book, which contains a case for strict constitutionalism, is 100% correct in terms of nominal law (laws on the books) but 100% off-base in terms of natural law (what is right and wrong). If the author had his way, we would still have slavery and we would not be a united country. That being said, the author is absolutely correct in his criticisms of the notion of "constitutional law". Draw your own conclusions from this conundrum. A good read.
