What did Minton believe the Supreme Court should be more deferential to?

  • International law

  • Economic theories

  • The political branches

  • State courts

Answer

The Supreme Court should be more deferential to the political branches because they are more representative of the people and more accountable to the people. The political branches are elected by the people, and they must answer to the people for their actions. The Supreme Court is not elected by the people, and it is not accountable to the people in the same way.
