[28] 随后杰弗逊进一步掌控了国会。失势的联邦党人开始押宝在司法系统。在政治斗争中失败的联邦党人退居司法领域,继续与杰弗逊党人进行斗争。1801年1月20日,亚当斯任命原国务卿马歇尔为最高法院首席大法官。2月4日, 马歇尔宣誓就职,但仍然继续履行国务卿职责。2月13日,联邦党人国会通过1801年司法法案,创设了16个新的中间法院的职位。亚当斯随即任命了这些法官。继而,马伯里被亚当斯任命为华盛顿特区的治安法官,并在亚当斯离任前为参议院所确认。但马伯里从未就任。亚当斯签署的委任状并非寄出。麦迪逊担任国务卿之后,不愿发出该委任状。因此在杰弗逊开始就任总统之后,马伯里将案子起诉到最高法院,要求麦迪逊签发委任状。这就是有名的马伯里诉麦迪逊案,Marbury v. Madison, 5 U.S. (1 Cranch) 137 (1803)。 [29] See Bruce Ackerman, The Failure of the Founding Fathers, Harvard University Press, 2005, P3-6. [30] See The Federalists, E.

[59] See Paul Kahn, Putting Liberalism in its Place, Princeton University Press, 2008, P265: “The revolutionary breach is the paradigmatic political act, successfully creating a new identity by identifying an enemy. It breaks the bonds of authority by which the polity is subordinate to a political power that is now conceived as external to the poeple themselves, regardless of whether that power is actually a foreign state.” [60] See Paul Kahn, Putting Liberalism in its Place, Princeton University Press, 2008, P266: “A civil war may appear to an outsider as a contest between factions, but from within the nation-state, it will appear as a contest over the locus of the popular sovereign-that is, each side will purport not just to represent but to be the People”.

The higher lawmaking track, in contrast, is designed with would-be revolutionaries in mind.”.
