LOOSE VS STRICT INTERPRETATION
Strict • What the Constitution
says is what it is• If it doesn’t say you
can do it, then you can’t• No wiggle room• Gives less power to
federal government
Loose• Constitution is more of
a guideline• Can be interpreted• Gives more power to
federal government• Implied powers
Unwritten Constitution: refers to the ideas and processes that are accepted as a needed part of American government, regardless of the fact that they are not actually in the Constitution.

HAMILTON VS JEFFERSON

HAMILTON VS JEFFERSON
Jefferson
• “All powers not expressly delegates to the federal government are reserved to the states and to the people. For congress or the president to take a single step beyond these limits is for them to grasp unlimited power.”

QUICK WRITE
