Bill Moyers speaks with former Attorney General Edwin Meese and Judge Robert Bork about how the “original intent" of the framers of the Constitution should be applied to questions of abortion, presidential powers, and big government. Edwin Meese, one of Ronald Reagan’s top advisors, discusses Presidential power and how Congressional law applies — or does not apply — to the Chief Executive. Robert Bork, a Reagan nominee to the Supreme Court, discusses his conservative jurisprudence and how the Constitution describes the Court’s role.

ROBERT'S RULES OF ORDER: A Conversation with Robert Bork
There are often said to be two competing schools for interpreting the meaning of the Constitution. On one side are those who believe that the meaning of the Constitution must evolve over time as society itself changes. On the other side are those who insist that the original intent of the framers of the Constitutionâ what they wrote and what their intent was in writing itâ is all that matters. Robert Bork is firmly in the latter school. We asked him to explicate his understanding of the U.S. Constitution, using recent Supreme Court decisions as case studies.
