For our special print issue on the country’s 250th anniversary, we asked about 100 historians and other public intellectuals to make some lists for us that summarize the nation’s high and low points: our best and worst presidents; the images that most sharply define American history; the greatest works of art; and more. The results are fun, fascinating, and give a real and true sense of the sweep of our history. Now it’s your turn! Take this reader survey and tell us what you think the right answers are—and see where yours stack up compared to our experts and to other readers. 👇
Best and worst presidents, important works of art, and more! #America250 #NewRepublic

“In establishing the American republic, the Framers unleashed a pair of seductive ideas: popular sovereignty and written constitutionalism. One is treated as a God-given right; the other, a cherished means of ordering society.” @Harvard_Press #America250

What’s in John Brown’s Constitution and how did it differ from the 1787 US Constitution? @USArchives
“As another season of last-minute U.S. Supreme Court opinions are handed down, Americans are faced with a perennial question: how much compliance is obligatory and how much room is there to disagree?” time.com/6981058/suprem…
It should be clear by now that SCOTUS’s power is no longer merely interpretation but national policymaking in nature, with all of the hopes, dreams, and demands for accountability that that entails.
The Supreme Court, which ordered Alabama to create a second Black opportunity district just three years ago, has lifted that order one week before the primary. The Purcell principle says courts shouldn't permit chaos too close to an election—it's now an open question as to
To what should you be paying attention if you worry about the future of free and fair elections in the United States? @huntercollege @Roosevelt_House
I’m all for more people reading the Constitution
Where can you play offense if you have a more robust vision of equality? #PracticalEquality
I look forward to addressing fellow teachers on the principle of equality at @ConstitutionCtr
🙌 Yes! potential sources of constitutional ideas are not only the institutions and regimes in power, but also ignored or seemingly defeated ideas
They’re not “purely” political actors. But they nevertheless are quasi-political actors. So long as judges are selected and socially disciplined through partisan methods—and continue to enjoy the equivalent of national policymaking power—any other description is misleading.
