final round of the faculty club table with soft professor andrew weissmann and history professor s, david blight and eric foner. professor blight, how should the supreme court define the words officer and insurrection, if they feel they have to, in section three of the 14th amendment? well, if the president is not an officer of the united states, and then nobody. s he s the only person in charge of the entire nation. and by the way, framers of the 14th amendment were worried about the possibility of jefferson davis coming back in as a presidential candidate. he was ruled out eventually, by the end of 1872, but they were worried about that. we can hope that the justices will read up on, maybe in eric s book, is that the fall election after the passage of the 14th amendment became a referendum on the amendment, all across the north.
