It is the thesis of this short essay that the Senate's role in both of these functions was intended by the Framers of our Constitution to be a very limited one; that the negative entrusted to the Senate was only to be exercised in the case of treaties by a minimum of one-third-plus-one senators and in the case of nominations by half or more of the Senate; and that altering these proportions may properly be done only by amending the Constitution pursuant to Article V.2 If this is true, then it follows that internal Senate rules or accommodations based upon courtesy unconstitutionally infringe upon the President's executive Power3 and authority to make Treaties and appoint diplomats with the advice and consent of the Senate.4 Although some of the reasoning in this essay may apply as wel...

DENVER -- Progressives have long lamented the fact that the Framers designed a Constitution replete with impediments to federal government activism -- fetters such as federalism itself, enumerated powers, three branches of government, two rivalrous wings of the legislative branch, supermajorities, judicial review, presidential vetoes. Colorado progressives, however, have decided the Constitution has a redeeming feature -- the infrequently invoked Guarantee Clause.
Their argument, which some conservatives here embrace, is that when Colorado voters passed an initiative circumscribing their Legislature's ability to increase taxes, they violated this clause. The plaintiffs in their lawsuit -- state legislators, local government and education officials -- want a judge to resolve "the contest...
