Answer to Question 2
An ideal response will:
1, Explain the difference between an ordinary precedent and a superprecedent, including the fact that a superprecedent has to be reaffirmed over time.
2, Analyze the ways in which a superprecedent runs contrary to the basic American idea that cases that have been wrongly decided should be reversed regardless of their age or the number of times that such precedent has been affirmed.
3, Note that labeling a case a superprecedent may make it difficult for future courts to respond to changed social circumstances, which is an essential feature of American democracy.
