Lesson Seven Discussion Question:In Federalist No. 78, Alexander Hamilton argued that the judiciary was the least dangerous branch of government.

The courts' power increased with John Marshall's establishment of judicial review.All presidents are concerned with the legacy they leave once out of office and major influence on this legacy is the Supreme Court justices they appoint. For this reason, politics plays an immense role the nomination process. Consider the nomination of Merrick Garland by Barack Obama in 2016 to fill the vacancy on the Supreme Court created by the death of Justice Antonin Scalia (an icon of conservative ideology). However, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell declared any appointment by the sitting president to be null and void. He said the next Supreme Court justice should be chosen by the next president — to be elected later that year. According to McConnell, "the American people should have a say in the court's direction. It is a president's constitutional right to nominate a Supreme Court justice, and it is the Senate's constitutional right to act as a check on the president and withhold its consent." Supreme Court picks have often been controversial but there was no precedence to ignore the nominee entirely. Scalia’s seat would later be filled by Neil Gorsuch (nominated by President Donald Trump).Based on this information (and your own outside research), analyze the process by which U.S. judges are nominated and confirmed.

Cite specific examples. Consider the concepts of judicial activism and judicial restraint in your response.Your initial discussion postings (250-300 words) should demonstrate an understanding and analysis of the assigned readings and video.
