what checks are on the federal exective government? Can you take them to court? Can their budget be eliminated?
The requirement for the Miranda warning is an excellent example: The Government wrangled confessions out of folks, the Supreme court says those cannot be used.
You might also consider President Obama's campaign for health care for everyone. The Congress is debating many sides of this issue, and the final bill will contain lots of compromises. But it will only become law if the president doesn't veto it.
It's also possible that someone will see something unconstitional in the final bill. If that happens, then the Supreme Court could decide if it is in truth unconstitional.
