1. The court system is more reliable in adhering to the individual because they make decisions based of the peoples rights first and foremost. They are not swayed by public opinion, nor do they pay attention to political beliefs or pressure. Their actions are entirely independent from all of that. For example, in the Ernesto Miranda case, the Supreme Court ruled that his Fifth Amendment was violated and was retried. This is a prime example of the court system making decisions based off of our rights. Miranda, being part of a minority and accused of rape and kidnapping, was not discriminated against but was instead listened by the court.

2. The Federal judges, unlike other political figures such as the President, are not appointed by popular vote. Which may add to the anti-democratic notion. I don’t believe the Federal Court is anti-democratic to discriminate, that being said, I still do believe that it is in fact anti-democratic. In “Federalist #10”, it mentioned that the Constitution is being made to prevent powerful factions from rising to the top and dominating the government. If they were to appoint democrats, a progressive faction that gains more people as time goes on, it would risk the possibility of going against the very reason the Constitution was made.
