Meese has attacked that position saying such interpreta- tion reaily only reflects the jud~e•s personal stand on i88ues ranging from death penalty to abortion. . Bork shied away from talk of h!S candidacy for a Supreme Court seat _ "all I know is what journal- ists tell me" _ and added he w~n't going to avoid debate on Consbt':'• tional intent just to improve _his chances of getting the appoint- ment. "There's been speculation for 12 years that I was a candidate for the Supreme Court, and I'm no_t _goin~ to worry about tactical dec1s1ons, he said. "It began in 1973 when I was SolicitQ,r General."

Con• stitutional law is becommg more theoretical among 5eholars The courts have to have their own theories," Bork stated. "Until recently, no OJ\e ~id judges were not bound by the m- tentionll of the onginal framers of the Constitution. This school of thought started around World War TI." . . Its adherents, he aid, believe it is 1mpo88ible to guellll what the na- tion's forefathers intended the Constitution to mean, or how to apply their concept of law to to- day's political, social and techno- logical advances. In contrast, Bork believes there , are plenty of materials available which shed :.\ight on the princip~ea behind th Con t1tution. Those m- clude the Federalist Papers, notes by James Madison, reports of Con- stitutional debates by the state~, and early Supreme Court deci- sions. He said much historical research is conducted m the area of Con- stitutional intent, and documents from the ratification debates have recently come to light. "We don't look at what they thought about radio and TV," Bork explained, "but what they thought of freedom of the press, and we ap- ply that to radio and TV." Bork noted there IS still much debate over the 14th Amendment, granting full citizenship rights to "all persons born or naturalized in the United States," and that "no one knows" the meaning of the 9th Amendment, granting rights not enumerated in the Constitution. judges expressing their views sa ou can't know what they meant 200 years ago. Others say ~t all arbi r ry to interpret the Constitution. Still others advocate interpretation to the modem moral philosophy," he said He admitted the complexities of figuring out the original intent as it may apply to a world the framers never dreamed of. I suspect, when there is no evide~ce for a judge to show he is enforcing origmal intent, it's preference for democracy over rule by a small group of men end wome~ who haven't got any law to apply· In other words, he suggested, new areas of law should be left for legislators. To his USO audience, Bork had acknowledged "entire ranges of problems will be plac~d off limits to judges" under his theory. "What is the tie-breaker? "Opponent of intentionalism
