How would a strict constructionist characterize the Federal Government?

A strict constructionist would characterize the Federal Government as one that operates within a limited scope of powers explicitly defined by the Constitution. They believe that the government should only exercise the powers specifically granted to it and that any implied powers or interpretations beyond this framework are unconstitutional. This perspective emphasizes a literal interpretation of the Constitution, advocating for a clear separation of state and federal authority and a strong adherence to the original text.


Was Monroe a loose constructionist?

Monroe believed that the US needed a strong central government that had power. He believed that most of the powers were implied in the Constitution, though, not specifically spelled out, because 1) if the Founders did that they were bound to forget something and 2) he wanted the goals of the Constitution to be able to be flexible to changing standards and the evolution of the US. Therefore, he technically could be considered both a loose and strict constructionist, but most consider him to be a loose constructionist because he was in favor of a powerful executive.

What does it mean if a power is not expressed or implied?

To the framers of the constitution there were two types of powers. Expressed power and implied. The expressed powers are ones that are stated like the power to declare war is given to congress, but to the framers it was clear that they didn't mean to have these powers be the final word so they built in a " fail safe" method to give leeway in what congress can do. They used a clause in Article 1 stating what was " necessary and proper." This means that congress can make laws to carry out the expressed powers. To a strict constructionist this is hazy and they are fearful that the government might take on too many powers and they claim that the constitution limits congress to powers only expressed in the constitution. A loose constructionist feel that congress not only has the power but the responsibility to adapt to changing times by making new laws. The existence of the clause in Article 1 indicates that the Framers knew the government would change and have to take on additional powers or obligations. The Supreme Court brought the concept of implied powers to life by hearing cases like aMcCulloch v Maryland in 1819.
