Presentation transcript:

Who was John Marshall?  The Democratic-Republican victory in the 1800 election began a long run of Republican political success.  In spite of Federalists' departure from most elective offices, they remained a powerful force in American life especially through their leading position among federal judges.

Who was John Marshall?  In the final months of Adams' administration he enlarged the federal judiciary and appointed many new judges.  In the view of Governor Morris, a Federalist senator from New York, this created an independent judiciary necessary "to save the people from their most dangerous enemy, themselves.“

Who was John Marshall?  "MIDNIGHT APPOINTMENTS"  In Jefferson's view, the Federalists "retired into the judiciary as a stronghold... and from that battery all the works of Republicanism are to be beaten down and destroyed."  The most influential of Adams' final judicial appointments in 1801 was naming John Marshall as Chief Justice of the Supreme Court.  He held that position until his death in 1835  Shaped the court's decisions and dramatically raised its stature.

Who was John Marshall?  He also defined the basic relationship of the judiciary to the rest of the federal government.  His forceful actions as Chief Justice set the Supreme Court on a course it has continued to follow for the next two centuries.  Marshall was guided by a strong commitment to judicial power and by a belief in the supremacy of national over state legislatures.  His judicial vision was very much in keeping with the Federalist political program
