His [[activist judge|influential]] rulings reshaped American government, making the Supreme Court the final arbiter of the Constitution, with power to overrule the president, Congress, the states, and all lower courts. He fought to protect the rights of individuals and corporations against intrusive state governments. Marshall, along with [[Daniel Webster]] (who argued some of the cases), was the leading conservative of the day, expressive Federalist approaches to build a strong nation over the opposition of [[Thomas Jefferson]] and the liberals, who wanted stronger state governments.
