The Supreme Court of the United States spends much, if not most, of its time on a task which is not delegated to the Supreme Court by the Constitution. That task is: Hearing cases wherein the constitutionality of a law or regulation is challenged. The Supreme Court's nine Justices attempt to sort out what is, and what is not constitutional. This process is known as Judicial Review. But the states, in drafting the Constitution, did not delegate such a power to the Supreme Court, or to any branch of the government.
Since the constitution does not give this power to the court, you might wonder how it came to be that the court assumed this responsibility. The answer is that the court just started doing it and no one has put a stop to it. This assumption of power took place first in 1794 when the Supreme Court declared an act of congress to be unconstitutional, but went largely unnoticed until the landmark case of Marbury v Madison in 1803. Marbury is significant less for the issue that it settled (between Marbury and Madison) than for the fact that Chief Justice John Marshall used Marbury to provide a rationale for judicial review. Since then, the idea that the Supreme Court should be the arbiter of constitutionality issues has become so ingrained that most people incorrectly believe that the Constitution granted this power to the federal judiciary.The Supreme Court received this power after the famous Marbury vs. Madison case in 1803. Accordingly, James Madison (Thomas Jefferson's Secretary of State) refused to seat William Marbury as a District of Columbia justice of the peace. The Supreme Court ruled that it was wrong of Jefferson to use his executive authority to prevent the seating of a judge.
It was "all racial minorities" that were affected when Lyndon Johnson signed the Civil Rights Act of 1964, which forbade discrimination in the US based on race or creed.
The correct answer is:
D. Helped to organize the Whig Party.
Explanation:
The Bank War was the central topic during the election campaign of 1832 between Andrew Jackson and Henry Clay. While <em>Jackson believed that the Second National Bank was too powerful</em> and only responded to Eastern interests so it needed to be shut down, his opponent <em>Henry Clay was an advocate for the recharter of the National Bank </em>and was supported financially by the Bank during his campaign.
When President Andrew Jackson won the election, he felt the compromise of defeating the Nation Bank on behalf of his supporters, President Jackson started shifting funds to state banks and vetoed the bill approved by the Congress of re-chartering the Bank, after this veto Henry Clay stated that it was an abuse of power by President Jackson and helped organize the new Whig Party, which consisted on Pro Bank Democrats against executive tyranny, ancient Tories became the Whig Party.
