C) The Constitution's meaning is fixed and does not change over time is the best description of his interpretation of the Constitution. Originalism is defined as "the Constitution's meaning fixed at the time of enactment." This means that judges will interpret laws to try to understand what was meant by it around the time it was written and how to use it in the particular context they are looking at.
