That’s why they wrote the separation of powers and set up three branches of government. The individual branches having there own responsibilities but working together all at the same time through checks and balances. I gather from our readings and videos that the United States Judicial Branch certainly is the most power branch of government. I believe this has been the case since Marbury vs. Madison in 1803 exercising the basis of judicial review under Article III of the Constitution. Judicial review is where the court has the ability to examine and decided if a statue, treaty or administrative regulation contradicts or violates the previsions of an existing law, State Constitution, or United States Constitution. In my opinion the Judicial Branch has gotten a little too big for their britches in recent years. They basically have the final say on what is constitutional and what is not regardless of the situation. The Judicial Branch has the authority to override any of the other branches of government.
Abraham Lincoln and Franklin Roosevelt expanded the roles of the Executive Branch. During their presidency there were many crisis which lead to Executive gains in power. The President is the only branch of government that can act accordingly and authoritatively to such crisis. The Legislative Branch is indeed the weakest branch of government especially recently. I feel that it has gotten weaker and weaker since the United States adopted the Constitution. Although, in recent years the Legislative Branch has enhanced slightly since congress has become so
