#11 - The Judiciary and War with Dr. Benjamin Slomski

On the eleventh episode of The Constitutionalist, Shane Leary and Dr. Benjamin Kleinerman are joined by Dr. Benjamin Slomski, an Assistant Professor of Political Science and Prelaw Advisor at Purdue University Fort Wayne. They discuss the role of the courts in determining the constitutionality of presidential power, in particular during war, and the health of our constitutional system today. The Constitutionalist is a podcast cohosted by Professor Benjamin Kleinerman, the RW Morrison Professor of Political Science at Baylor University and Founder and Editor of The Constitutionalist Blog, and his student, Shane Leary. Each week, they discuss political news in light of its constitutional implications, and explore a unique constitutional topic, ranging from the thoughts and experiences of America's founders and statesmen, historical episodes, and the broader philosophic ideas that influence the American experiment in government.
