Associate Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito has a new book, So Ordered: An Originalist's View of the Constitution, the Court, and Our Country.
Justice Alito is in line with the late Antonin Scalia, who also believed the founders were brilliant men, who wrote a document meant to last as long as America does.
It tracks the emergence of original judicial philosophy and defends it against other approaches to judging, like modern interpretations by liberals and socialists who want to use the founding document to advance their secular agendas and transform the country into something the founders never intended.
Alito says no one in 1868 thought that the 14th Amendment included the liberty to marry a person of the opposite sex.
Alito says he's not agitating for it to be returned, quote, "I don't want to even hint that it should be overturned, since a lot has happened since we adopted it." The book reveals how one justice feels about some of the controversial cases on which he had to rule.
