From the article “Original Intent.” Original intent refers to a school of thought among judges that as much as possible, judges today should apply the U.S. Constitution as the framers intended it to be applied, in other words, by preserving their values even if at the expense of other values. While all judges should be concerned about what the framers wanted, society today is much different than society was in the late 1700’s. How did the framers feel about red light cameras at traffic intersections, stem cell research, and the right to keep assault wespons? In fact, they did not have cameras, any knowledge of cells, or assault weapons back then. The framers decided to preserve the institution of slavery and to keep women from enjoying the equal rights that they have today, and probably no one would support turning back the clock. So, we need to temper our enthusiasm a bit over original intent. On the other hand, how can you say that a woman has a Constitutional right to an abortion when the framers probably weren’t thinking of abortion when they wrote the Constitution and when James Madison presented his draft of the Bill of Rights? That is one example of the argument in favor of original intent: How can you construe the words of a person speaking about one topic (religion, speech, press, peaceful assembly) to imply support of another completely different subject? Plus, in the words of a famous late twentieth century judge Robert Bork, “If we applied the Constitution to just those things that the framers knew about, the Constitution would eventually become meaningless.” Yet, every legal issue today must somehow be directly or indirectly tied in to the Constitution, else a ruling from the bench would be just a judge giving his or her personal opinion.

Discussion Question 2: Developmental Dyslexia

Susan is a 7-year-old female who has been struggling at home and at school with following directions and reading. She cries at night because she feels that she is always in trouble for not being able to understand. Her parents read books to her at night trying to help her to read. Her mother remembers having problems with reading too and still struggles to understand what she reads, but figures that her daughter will someday catch on. Her teacher has suggested that Susan be screened for a learning disorder. If the school finds enough reason to refer her, she may be referred to a child psychologist for further testing.

According to the assigned reading, what disorder does Susan probably have? How is this passed genetically through families and why do some members get it but others do not? What are some treatment options for Susan (based on your earlier diagnosis)?
