Democracy and Equality: The Enduring Constitutional Vision of the Warren CourtFrom 1953 to 1969, the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren brought about many of the proudest achievements of American constitutional law. The Warren declared racial segregation and laws forbidding interracial marriage to be unconstitutional; it expanded the right of citizens to criticize public officials; it held school prayer unconstitutional; and it ruled that people accused of a crime must be given a lawyer even if they can't afford one.

From 1953 to 1969, the Supreme Court under Chief Justice Earl Warren brought about many of the proudest achievements of American constitutional law. The Warren declared racial segregation and laws forbidding interracial marriage to be unconstitutional; it expanded the right of citizens to criticize public officials; it held school prayer unconstitutional; and it ruled that people accused of a crime must be given a lawyer even if they can't afford one. Yet, despite those and other achievements, conservative critics have fiercely accused the justices of the Warren Court of abusing their authority by supposedly imposing their own opinions on the nation.

As the eminent legal scholars Geoffrey R. Stone and David A. Strauss demonstrate in Democracy and Equality, the Warren Court's approach to the Constitution was consistent with the most basic values of our Constitution and with the most fundamental responsibilities of our judiciary. Stone and Strauss describe the Warren Court's extraordinary achievements by reviewing its jurisprudence across a range of issues addressing our nation's commitment to the values of democracy and equality. In each chapter, they tell the story of a critical decision, exploring the historical and legal context of each case, the Court's reasoning, and how the justices of the Warren Court fulfilled the Court's most important responsibilities.

This powerfully argued evaluation of the Warren Court's legacy, in commemoration of the 50th anniversary of the end of the Warren Court, both celebrates and defends the Warren Court's achievements against almost sixty-five years of unrelenting and unwarranted attacks by conservatives. It demonstrates not only why the Warren Court's approach to constitutional interpretation was correct and admirable, but also why the approach of the Warren Court was far superior to that of the increasingly conservative justices who have dominated the Supreme Court over the past half-century.

Solves the problem of the ground location.
Color: White, Size: 5FT
In the master bath a lot of things need power. It really helps to be able to rotate the plug head to leave room for other devices.

Fabulous idea!
Color: White, Size: 3FT(13A)
I needed to puppy proof my sewing room. It has 4 stations for various machines and ironing. Lots of cords including TV, dyson vacuum, and computer. I bought two sizes, For my house the shorter one works from the standard wall outlet to above desks, ets. That included a small curve for positioning. There are 4 outlets, surge protected and c and a. My only con is the size. It is a very thick size. For something on the wall I wanted it flatter. The cord is a flat cord, and it came with connectors to put on the wall to contain the cords. If it were flatter it would be perfect. It is a bit bulky. It sure is very functional for all my needs. I also bought one of the stick ones which I would not do again. Heavy and even bigger to contend with. They both work well, It would depend on your own needs for the cord size. But certainly a good idea and the price is even better.

Does the job well
Color: White, Size: 1.5FT(13A)
I needed this as my wall outlet wasn't located near enough to my needs. Since it does exactly what the listing describes so, from my point of view, it gets 5 stars. Price was good. Well made.

So convenient
Color: White, Size: 5FT
Perfect function for my charging system and the length is a right to my night stand. I like that it has surge protection, also I can plug in my phone and watch charger directly. I would buy it again next time.
