Barnett's pioneering contrarianism made it acceptable to believe that the Court should side with liberty against encroachments by both state and federal government. He has played an integral role in the rise of originalism, the movement to identify, restore, and defend the original meaning of the Constitution. Barnett's mission to restore the lost Constitution took him from the schoolhouse to the courthouse, where he argued the medical marijuana case of Gonzeles v. Raich in the Supreme Court and devised and spearheaded the constitutional challenge to Obamacare. His compelling journey from a working-class kid in Calumet City, Illinois, to \"Washington Power Breaker\" is recounted in his memoir.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e: 1058g\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimension\u003c\/strong\u003e: 236 x 166 x 49 (mm)\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eISBN-13\u003c\/strong\u003e: 9781641773775\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Randy Barnett","offers":[{"title":"Hardback","offer_id":46582275342586,"sku":"9781641773775","price":24.74,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0522\/4297\/2845\/files\/1723832519936_book.jpg?v=1724066940","url":"https:\/\/shulphink.com\/products\/a-life-for-liberty-the-making-of-an-american-originalist-9781641773775","provider":"Shulph Ink","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
