And yes, the imposition of slavery and forcing the Civil War, the gutting of
Reconstruction, the suppression of labor unions and progressive
legislation - this is the prime legacy of the Supreme Court for the first
150 years of this country. I think it is completely accurate to see the
Supreme Court as probably the worst, most reactionary institution in the
history of the United States.

CB: When one thinks about it, you are right , Nathan. The only court only half bad was the Warren Court, probably.
What about the Presidency ? That's an atrocious institution too.
