“Originalism requires that the Constitution be a type of document literally beyond the capacity and purpose of the framers,” writes 
Mary Sarah Bilder, Boston College Law, in 
an op-ed prompted by Judge Gorsuch’s confirmation hearings, in today’s 
Boston Globe.   And, while I’m on the topic of originalism, 
here is my 
Georgetown Law colleague 
Randy Barnett’s response to 
Jonathan Gienapp’s blog post, 
Constitutional Originalism and History, and 
here is an additional observation by another 
Georgetown Law colleague, 
Lawrence Solum.
