Your link provided examples of cases of political question, certainly there are others, and there are some that you claim would fall under the PQD that SCOTUS would actually hear based on the question of the case. Because you claim, or your hero Mark Levin, something to be PQD, doesn't make it so. An example of SCOTUS probably invoking PQD would be if Congress dq'ed Cruz as President elect for not being a "natural-born" citizen. If a case were to make it to SCOTUS regarding Cruz's birth, then it wouldn't be a PQD case, it would be similar to the WKA case, and would be heard.Well I don't think you understand the Political Question Doctrine any more than you understand basic English. To my knowledge, they have never decided to hear a case that was a political question. If you think they have, you don't understand the Political Question Doctrine or what we're talking about. You're trying to make it so that virtually EVERYTHING is a political question, and that's not the intent of the Political Question Doctrine.
:sigh: If a case were to make it to SCOTUS regarding Cruz's birth, it would be heard by SCOTUS. If the Congress denies Cruz as President elect, then SCOTUS wouldn't here Cruz's case do to PQD. Have I dumbed it down far enough for you to comprehend what has been shown, stated, and explained?You see, like with "context" you also have a problem with "nuance" and I strongly suspect you've ingested lead paint chips as a child. This can lead to a retardation of your mind's ability to process critical thought. The Political Question Doctrine is specifically to deal with cases brought in the heat of politics by partisans of one side or another over an issue being politically determined. They are simply not going to get into the middle of a political fight. This is a politically-driven initiative and they will not get involved.
