Answer to Question 2

The incorporation doctrine is a legal theory that maintains that the Bill of Rights (or at least portions thereof) should be incorporated through the Fourteenth Amendment Due Process Clause and made applicable to the states. Over time, the U.S. Supreme Court has began to incorporate select provisions of the Bill of Rights through the Fourteenth Amendment's Due Process Clause, thereby making these provisions applicable to the states.
