Under judicial supremacy, the branches of government are not co-equal.  Instead, under judicial supremacy, courts are above checks and balances by other branches of government.  This subverts the Constitutional [[Separation of Powers]] that exists to prevent the rise of tyrannical government.  Numerous American statesmen have rejected judicial supremacy, including Presidents [[Thomas Jefferson]], [[Andrew Jackson]], [[Abraham Lincoln]], and [[Franklin Delano Roosevelt]].  Also, [[Alexander Hamilton]] completely rejected judicial supremacy in [[Federalist No. 78]].

Judicial supremacy is a concept broader than judicial activism, in that judicial supremacy is a mistaken belief system adopted by many attorneys, laypersons, and people in all walks of life.  It attaches an inflated significance of the judiciary beyond what is justified.  judicial activism, meanwhile, relates to how liberals attempt to attain political goals through legal decisions, such as legislating from the bench.
