Conservatives v. Libertarians: A Reason Event Featuring Damon Root, Doug Kendall, and Eugene B. Meyer
The last few years have been good to the Conservative Judicial Movement, but at what cost? Some conservative judges say these victories have been gained by stomping on precedent.
Should libertarians turn to the courts for political solutions, or do they risk giving ground to liberals pursuing a competing agenda?
On June 30, 2010, Reason sponsored a debate between Reason Associate Editor Damon Root, Doug Kendall of the Constitutional Accountability Center, and Federalist Society President Eugene B. Meyer. The debate was based on Root's July 2010 cover story.
Approximately 51 minutes. Shot by Dan Hayes and Josh Swain. Edited by Josh Swain.
