Scalia's "Originalist" Interpretation Of The US Constitution Is Challenged

Antonin Scalia was known as an arch-conservative who was at the vanguard of what we see today in the politics of the USA.  He had a dogma-induced blindness behind an affable personality.  He never could see that he was cherry-picking within his "Originalist" bias as least as much as those he was criticizing for interpreting the US Constitution from the view of present circumstances.  He never revealed a humble understanding that politics is not a "hard" science, but a "soft" social science, with very imprecise tools at arriving at truth.

The originalist position on constitutional interpretation should be laid to rest along with Justice Scalia.
