I never heard of the idea that Congress passing a law automatically makes it Constitutional, where did Obama learn that?
The Supreme Court assumes a law to be constitutional unless they find a legal reason to rule otherwise. Just like "innocent until proven guilty" the presumption of the court is "constitutional until proven unconstitutional".
But that's different than it BEING Constitutional.
A guilty person who gets arrested is presumed innocent in the EYES of the LAW. That doesn't mean he is actually innocent. If he were actually innocent, he shouldn't even hvae gotten arrested.
But in the real world, everyone who has ever been properly convicted was, at one time, legally deemed to be innocent.
Well sure. I agree, but I am just saying that the SCOTUS presumes a law is constitutional until they can show otherwise. Just because Congress passes a law does not mean it's automatically constitutional obviously, but simply that the courts start with the "presumption of innocence."
