Buzz, precedent is a key feature of English Common Law, which was adopted as it then existed in 1776 by the 13 colonies, and subsequently by the new United States and by all but one of the subsequent states. The exception is Louisiana, whose state law is based on France's Code Napoleon. That said, common law precedents are trumped by statute and even more so by the Constitution. Precedent is a factor in the SCOTUS following past interpretations of Constitutional or statutory provisions, but they are not bound by it.

The problem in the birthright citizenship case was a precedent that involved a child born to foreign citizens who were lawfully in the United States. That should have been a precedent as to Green Card holders but NOT as to illegal aliens or tourists. Even after ratification of the 14th Amendment, American Indians were not considered US citizens and a special law had to be passed to make them citizens. Since that was required for people whose ancestors had been in America longer than anybody else, something similar should have been required as to children of people who are illegally here in the first place. I am appalled at the positions of Roberts and Barrett in this case. Four justices correctly ruled that the 14th Amendment does not make the children of tourists and illegal aliens US citizens.

By now, its probably been a couple of decades since I read that law schools no longer teach the Constitution. They only teach Precedent law.

They need to review history. Get away from Precedent and adhere to the Constitution. They are not to legislate from the Bench.
