This is one of the least known amendments in the bill of rights.

Of course everyone knows 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6.

Because of Marbury vs Madison (where the court usurped the power to "interpret" the constitution), 9A has been obscured by history.

For clarification, to those ignorant, 9A states:

"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall nrabroad
be construed to deny or disparage rabroad
hers retained by the people"

For those ignorant of the English language, or those overshadowed by liberal mindset, this simply states, that no law, or precedent, shall be made to deny any right to any person of the US, and no interpretation of the constitution shall be allowed to do so.

This amendment has been ignored throughout history, and has allowed the usurpation of power throughout the government, illegally and unconstitutionally. This bill, on top of the previous 8, is the legal icing on the cake for the bill of rights, if nrabroad
ignored.

Discuss.

A constitutional scholar, you most certainly aren't.

The purpose of 9A is to clarify what might have mistakenly been inferred without its presence in the Bill of Rights: that the rights contained therein are the only rights people have. Thus it works in conjunction with the tenth.

Incidentally, I know you tentatively dislike the SCrabroad
US particularly insofar as their rulings disagree with your juvenile ideology, but if you want to talk Marbury v. Madison, you're opening a huge can of worms.
 
When the Bill of Rights was first proposed, the major argument against it was that by specifying some rights that the government was nrabroad
free to violate, there would be the implication that the government was free to violate any rights nrabroad
specifically prrabroad
ected in the Constitution. The Ninth Amendment was written to address this concern.
