I must say I’m flattered that you would come back after a year and a half absence just to reply to my post
But yes, it’s been pretty well exhausted in the media that Kennedy (and maybe Roberts) would be the deciding votes. Kennedy has always been known as the “swing vote”.
What I’ve said here is nothing new, of course. I mean, I quoted Madison, so of course the understanding of the Constitution that I’ve presented here (which of course is the correct one) has been known since the document was ratified. Tom Woods has of course done plenty of documentation on this. (Of course the various books are in order as well).
As for how the case went, it doesn’t look good for the defense, as can be seen in the Obamacare thread.
