May I suggest that one point that both Earl and Sandy might agree on
(and this is a very, very shameless plug for a piece I just published in
Perspectives on Politics) is that whatever the merits of doctrinal
courses in American constitutionalism in law schools, it is absolutely
inexcusable for the undergraduate course to focus obsessively on
doctrine at the expense of the more fundamental issues of American
constitutionalism such as whether the constitution is actually
funtioning.
