Marbury V.S. Madison - Part 1
Storyboard Beschreibung
Sorry, some of the text became wonky after I finished it. John Adams, a federalist, is replaced by Thomas Jefferson (Liberalist) as president. Adams makes a lot of federalists judges at the last minute, but Jefferson and the liberals refuse to honor the last-minute appointments. William Marbury was one of the "midnight judges" appointed.
