I think the essential question is at the age of 52 he needs to prove how he has conducted his life as an adult. Mistakes are made by people at 15, but if they continue on the path of crime they need to face the consequences of their actions.

In addition, to further the diffusion of governmental power, it gave unenumerated powers to the States.
Representatives in the House of Representatives reflect population in each state. This is why California has the most seats, because they have the highest population. Conversely, the senate only awards 2 senate seats for each state, so it can be argued that this is unfair because then states like wyoming are afforded the same amount of political power as a state like California which reflects a much larger portion of the population.
