- In 2008 Ginsburg told Lesley Stahl, “the genius of the United States is that, over, now, the course of more than two centuries, the notion of "we the people" has become ever larger.”

Ruth Bader Ginsburg was one of the most respected women we have ever seen in this country, I think. It was very sad when she passed, but she left a monumental legacy. It's nice to hear her speak about such an important document.
too bad she's causing all these d*mb liberals to go crazy over the supreme court right now. she should have just retired when obama asked her to.
RBG never let the constitution get in the way of her feelings.
Patriots fight for freedom, Nationalists only know how to obey.
@@dudere but y'all are literally advocating to limit our rights :/
She was an idiot..totally Clueless...there are educated Godless idiot's
@@justinbrah627 Bruh, you dont even know who am am and what I believe in. I believe in removing your rights, but your are a sheep so you are going to let me do it anyway.
@j bo by defn the biggest patriots are likely nationalists. Love of ones nation. Stop letting cnn redefine terms for you to scare you and pigeonhole you into ignorance.
When i think of Justice Ginsberg, I think of four words/phrases: intellectual, poised, and competent, crackheads. I love how she stayed on the court too long which allowed a very very arch conservative to be appointed.
She was a damn battleship. Whether you like her or not, she would never sink. No matter how many blows.
retirement is not an option. dems sunk her life
Well she sunk
Elon wooow dude
She was a rusty garbage scow for several years. No way could a very elderly (87) frail woman fighting her fourth major malignancy (pancreatic cancer twice) have been able to make sound decisions. By the way she died surrounded by her family according to the news. So how long was she sick on hospice for be fore she died?? Who was making her decisions and writing her responses? You need to work on developing your intellectual curiosity and spend less time licking this old crook's taint.
Yes. she was unnecessary, inaccurate, ineffective, and too high maintenance. Just like a battleship in modern times. She didn’t represent the whole country, only the people who self identify as victims.
The founders specifically set up the amendment process so that the constitution could evolve with the time, the intention was not to bypass that process in the name of judicial activism. This judicial philosophy sounds great to the ear, but ignores the separation of powers that were specifically established so that the Supreme Court (unelected appointees) couldn't just come in and change the law however their political views saw fit. The supreme court is not a political entity, and is not meant to be influenced by popular opinion. Its job is to objectively apply the law as the legislature who wrote it intended.
Also, to say that just because no state allowed for women to vote at the time, the 14th amendment must have have not been meant to included women is simply false, and as a Supreme Court justice, surly RBG she knew that. The US constitution wasn't even first applied to state governments until 1925, and until then it was only seen to control the actions of the federal government, not the states. The 14th amendment very Cleary was meant to include all citizens, including women, and to interpret it as such is not a violation of originalism at all.
"There's nothing in the Constitution that says the president stops being president in his last year." - Ginsburg. So Ginsburg and Trump agree with what is right in this instance it appears.

@@SmartRobot-wc2fb
Yep. Mitch insisted in 2016 and delayed over 10 months.
There is only 45 days till the election. Smh
But yet on her death bed she says the newly elected POTUS should name her replacement, obviously hoping Joe will win. Typical lib, always trying to change the rules to suit their current situation.
@@uio890138 You're seeing your republicunts in the mirror and take everybody else for the same...she said that because she knew the face of FASCISM: Trump...
In all fairness, Obama held to that and picked Garland because it was his duty to, and Trump will do the same. The rest is up to the senate.
Like most democrats, she agreed with it when it aligned with her political activism and ignored it otherwise.
They want to blow up the system and get revenge, Republican is way to go
How can America claim to be a Republic when nine unelected Judges can determine if the laws of my community or state are legal or not?
State laws are still separate, do not forget that.
Federal laws are to keep the balance, hence the "checks and balances" system.
Unelected? Are you stupid?
@sb It's not just the democrats. I do not know of any judge that has objected to Judicial Review. If the court didn't claim that power, legislating from the the bench would be impossible.
@@MrSupercat48 I think your stupid tbh I don't remember that last time we had a vote on who is on the supreme court half wit

"There's nothing in the Constitution that says the president stops being president in his last year," Ruth Ginsburg 2016. In regards to the President nominating SC Justices.
What did Trump and McConnell say
@@mfk5533 Good point. Ask yourself, if Hilary was President and Democrats were in the same position would they nominate right away too? Yes they would. It is part of the Presidency and power. I am not hating the democrats for wishing to wait, I am just pointing out that Ginsberg herself said it was correct to do. It really should not even be an argument, not now and not in 2016. If there is a vacancy it should be filled immediately by the siting President. I did not vote for trump in 2016, but I am in 2020 (proudly I might add).
@k b What?! No obligation or loyalty to the left or democrats?! He is literally THE president of an entire country full of people of all different beliefs and opinions! He literally works for us (and I mean all of us) at our pleasure! He has the exact same obligation to democrats that he does to republicans or libertarians.
This is my exact point I made the other day on my class
Rbg died 3 years ago
Brilliantly Said Mrs. Ginsburg❗️💯 %
Certain truths are self evident.
Philisophical truths are pointless if you don't have a way of reasonably implementing them. She didn't say anything about re interpreting the constitution, she just said we need to adjust for modern times
A conservative replacement will be refreshing !
Evermore inclusive.....the key words ...
Where are the captions? Not inclusive enough.
that really didn't explain much, but she apparently is trying to say that she viewed the Constitution as a "living document" that ebbs and flows with the times and should be interpreted dictated by the current environment....rather than the original intent.....
Such a brilliant, caring woman. RIP, Ruth. 💚☮️
Thank you Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg for all of the important things you did for Americans, especially minorities! May you Rest In Peace in a wonderful and happy place. ❤️❤️💙💙💜💜 I hope that your most fervent wish comes true! 🇺🇸🇺🇸

Madame Justice Ginsburg is irreplaceable!
You don't interpret the constitution... that is not your job. It is the job of the supreme court to uphold the constitution. The federalist papers perfectly outline what each amendment meant and what they wanted.
Just b.s., the Constitution was not written to be interpreted or revised, how would freedom of speech be interpreted or revised, the supreme court does not have any power to " revise" the Constitution any more than judges have the right to interpret law to suit their own political beliefs !
It's called forerthought dipshit 😁
The interpretation of written documents is fundamental to the process and Practice of Law. Interpretation takes place whenever the meaning of a legal document must be determined.
@dragonsleeper31471 I agree the Constitution does not need to be revised just evaluated according to circumstances
@@herbertspanecki7029 dipshit to you ,democrat !

RUTH BADER GINSBERG was such a great model for young women and an inspiration to all! I wish she was able stay around a bit longer to see how we will come out in force in November to protect equality & justice for ALL.
Yeah. Flush em ladies.
Unfortunately Ruthie thought it was OK for women to have abortions. On one hand I here and that she fought for equality with all human beings EXCEPT Young heart beat unborn children, they had no equal rights.... Other than that I think Ruth was awesome
@MIssHowk OK I can accept that
RBG should have retired when *Obama* had the *Senate.* She was too *greedy* for power, and bet on *Hillary* winning in a *change* election. Her *judgement* was just as *bad* in, as it was outside of the courtroom.
There was no need for Ginsberg to retire as she was still intellectually and physically up for the job. Also, THREE Justices (Souter, Stevens, Scalia) vacated their spots during Obama terms (2008-16) with Scalia passing away in Feb. 2016, 8 months before November election but the Republicans majority Senate refused to hold hearings for a 3rd Obama nomination. They literally stalled the process for 8 months not even knowing a Republican was going to be in the White House or not in November. Had Ginsburg retired, it wouldn't have mattered any as Republicans wouldn't have let Obama choose a 3rd Justice anyway.
@@pohanahawaii No. Reason?! Welcome to Trump's 3rd Nomination to the Supreme Court.

Keep your biased Christian views out of politics.
@@discharge666 Spoken like a true Atheist!!!
@@ronaldshank7589 you can believe whatever you want, but no religious group should receive preferential treatment by the govt. That's in the constitution.
@@ronaldshank7589 No, it's spoken like they don't think their religious freedom is more important than someone else's. Why do you hate freedom? Why are you so unamerican? Our founding fathers created this land to escape state religions and tyranny. They roll in their graves that modern right wingers are trying to force Christianity into politics, the same way they roll for modern leftists trying to destroy the 2nd amendment.
She was on the bench way too long, should have gone to a nursing home years ago.
She used the bench like her on bed, she was slipping in it most of time in front of every body. Trump should fire her for slipping on the job.
Keep your unkind words to yourself. Karma awaits such like you!
By the way, where are your grandma or grandpa? Did you check which nursing home to visit them today?
One of America's greatest women. Rest well Ruth, we miss you.
I DON'T LIKE THIS LADY, SHE TOOK IT TO THE GRAVE, ABORTION, AND ALL HER CRAP! I'M SORRY, I CANNOT FIND COMPASSION.
You are not supposed to interpret it in light of your slipping morals but protect it in light of a national desire by the founding fathers to protect freedom. Not sad you died, more like about time.

@joshua traman
If you support Mitch McConnells effort to replace RBG then you are just as big of a huge hypocrite.
@joshua traman
In 2016 McConnell and Linsey Grahm said after the election. So... anything different is hypocritical.
On her death bed RBG said we should wait also.
Her friend Scalias died in February 2016, almost 11 months before the election. Mitch stalled it for almost a year. It's 45 days to election. We need to wait like the boys said to let The people choose.
The Bill of Rights was not written by "the founders". They explicitly left it out and only after certain States said they wouldn't ratify the damn thing without it were "the founders" compelled to amend it in.
RBG did not say “the founders,” she said “the framers” - it was inspired by Thomas Jefferson and largely drafted by James Madison who initially opposed a Bill of Rights. It was adopted in 1791 to make the first 10 Amendments law.
@@FR-ty5vn Exactly, Madison vehemently opposed them.
Christopher Collins yet they were crucial for ratification.
@@FR-ty5vn But no thanks to the men who actually wrote it.
The "WHO" of the protections in the constitution may have changed, but she wanted to change the "WHAT" was protected.
@Red Zun But my point is that you don't have to see through their lies to see how awful they are, look at what they are actually calling for. They call for the same amount of judicial activism as was seen in Dredd Scott. It doesn't matter if what they wanted was good, because it opens the door to more judicial activism which will eventually be unimaginably evil.
@Red Zun ".One day if possible ..they'll rip that constitution ,bill of rights to pieces!" They already have. RBG alone wanted to destroy 1st, 2nd, and 5th amendment rights, to speak nothing of the continuous assault that has occurred since FDR rolled up like a mobster to the supreme court and said it would be a shame if something happened to your institution like 6 new justices. Before FDR minimum wage laws had been deemed unconstitutional, now the government has the power to do anything.
Ever more people included in "We the People". How about next, we end the discriminatory electoral participation laws and allow ALL political parties and candidates to be on the ballot automatically?
She viewed the constitution as a loose list of non-binding suggestions...
The constitution is just a document! We gotto amend that piece if paper!!

Judges shouldn’t “interpret” the constitution. They should just read the words on the parchment
ah see but this in fact is an interpretation of the constitution, it even has a name! look up textualism. you have a right to your opinion about how it should be interpreted but no matter how you want to read it, you are interpreting it in one way or another
What a hypocrite she was. She celebrated that more and more types of human beings were gradually included within the phrase "We the People", but she rested her hat on the Roe v. Wade decision which dismissed preborn human beings as merely potential people, and not actual people. So she was just as bigoted and prejudiced as any racist, chauvinist, or fundamentalist religionist. I would venture to say that she was even MORE bigoted than they were, because she refused to learn from their mistakes, and she just repeated them with a new subset of the population. She just found a new victim class to be "-ist" against.
Great Job Ruth!

To be fair we can make changes to our beloved Constitution. We have a right to express ourselves and are capable to make our country better. I see nothing wrong what she is saying. What saddens me that still today we don't not educate the American people how to go about making an Amendment to the Constitution. Instead people are yelling, complaining and crying... that's not how you better our country or pass laws here. 🇺🇸 The Framers left open a way to make such changes and we have succeeded 27 times. 27 more times than any other Constitution in the world.. I think lol. We have the oldest Constitution still in use , in the entire world and the world tries to plagiarize it over and over again but never seem to wind up with one that lasts. WE THE PEOPLE.

Ruth Bader Ginsberg was in favor of equality, that equally Representative of all Americans
She really was.
Shes an icon of justice never forget her service to America rip Ruth Bader
I remember she voted against the question of the 2nd Amendment being an individual right . Good riddance.
Brett but yet it’s still an individual right.
To my conservative friends reading this -- just know this, our supreme court works the way it does for a reason. If there were serious issues with one side or the other, then we would know about it. Each justice's voting record is publicly available, and it's more even spread than you'd think. The cases they decide are literally there for a reason, because it was too complicated for other judges.
The SC is the final and highest appeals court. The cases they choose to review have already had verdicts rendered (unless it is under the SC's exclusive jurisdiction, which is seldom the case). The lower courts do not pass up their verdicts because cases are too complicated. Regardless, the SC usurped the power of judicial review and with that authority the court can and does legislate laws. That coupled with justices, like Ginsberg, who believe they have free reign to interpret the Constitution as what they believe it ought to mean is what "conservatives" have beef with.
@Julia Marie Kruskiego, RN If you took the time to research what she did in the timeframe you mentioned, you would see that she did accomplish quite a lot.
It's not that only "other judges" could handle the complications, but rather that the appeals process put the eyes & brains of more than a few "other judges" to work on specific issues within the cases.
Thank you Ruth for staying on the court long enough to enable the overturning of Roe V Wade. A great legacy.
Good riddance to bad garbage.
Never thought about that. Excellent observation.
I agree. People seem to think the constitution is a sacred, perfect, unalterable document of no mistakes. But even if you hold that view, you can read it as she does. Why are there amendments to a perfect document? To make it better? Or to implement it to a larger degree, ergo create a more perfect union
She didn't, she just made rulings according to her own wishes
Oh so like how Conservative justices struck down student loan forgiveness despite the federal government having the right to do whatever they want to their money just because of the Conservatives hyper individualist bias?
RGB was famous for hating the Constitution. She told a group of foreign students NOT to use our Constitution as a model . She helped make the ACLU into a leftist organization when it began as a Constitution guard.
@k b She reeks of pure evil for me. I cherish her absence,
No doubt about her as an intelligent woman. But pro LGBT and pro choice is something about her. Pro choice, did she forget about the tragedy of holocaust? She's not fit to be an icon of justice. Pro choice is act of injustice.
What's wrong with Pro LGBT?
LGBT as individuals with their own way of life, risks and responsibilities will be ok. But when they try to use and to control law for their purposes, that's a big problem. LGBT is fit only for private feelings, way of life, small society and interest.

Allen Michael Anderson David Anderson Ruth
Undermining the constitution is what she is actually saying she does. 2+2 is the same as it was 300 years ago. Her list of problems with America are largely overblown or disingenuous in her presentation.
I'm sorry I am replying to such an old comment but either way here I go. I find it funny how you say that she is disingenuous when you think that providing an absolute logical truth is comparable to moral belief systems which has obviously changed over the last 2 and a half centuries.
Again, she didn't say anything about "re interpreting the Constitution" she just said that we need to read the constitution while accounting for the modern era
@@oofoof6577, in order to interpret the constitution accounting for the modern era literally means reinterpreting the constitution. The constitution is timeless and doesn't need to be reinterpreted. It means what it says. Injecting morals into it leaves the constitution striped down to nothing. The constitution is not a list of rights, it' limits the power of our government. Now we find ourselves as a population under the jackboot of government as oppressive as Americans have ever seen. With those in power committing crimes and never being held accountable regardless of what the law says. How is that a better state of affairs for we the people?
Maybe now we can get a Judge that respects the constitution!
Alex Rivera: She ALWAYS did!
This is why SCOTUS Justices need to have an 18 year term limit with staggered ends dates. This way two justices end their term every 4yr presidential term. If a Justice dies or steps down then the sitting president fills the vacancy for the remainder of that justices term.
This will depoliticize the SCOTUS and will end the trend of getting young justices just so they stay there for as long as possible. In the past justices would retire after a good number of years, this is no longer the case.
A terrible loss...as a woman, I respect her accomplishments very much. However, she should and could have retired five years ago.
She, like all of us, expected Hillary to win. We cannot blame her for that--let's commend her for holding on for as long as she could.
She should have retired 5 years ago for what? So Senate Republicans could delay yet another court vacancy until after the election? Was she also supposed to see into the future that a Democrat would not be elected president?

She has an awful view on the Constitution and should have never been on the supreme court in the first place.
Bill Clinton put her in the Supreme Court, probably she smoked his Cigar also like Monica.
She interpreted in whatever way best suited her political ideology, instead of interpreting it in a way faithful to its intentions
That's partly true. It isn't right to rule according to what would inevitably be an argumentative guess at the intentions. It is proper to judge according to the wording of the law(constitution)
Conservatives are much worse at only interpreting through an ideology but whatever
"Old and outdated", that's how she interpreted it.

the role of the supreme court is to interpret the amendments. interpret doesnt mean define.
@@JoefromNJ1 I respectfully disagree. The role of the supreme court is to determine if that which is before the court abides, violates or is outside the boundary of the Constitution - a document which is constructed to be taken literally in a simple and straight forward manner on behalf and to the benefit of it's citizens. Interpretation assumes a lack of objective clarity. But I know what you mean, right?
