Abstract
This Article asks why Justice Thomas' dissent in Term Limits has aroused such intense criticism. After considering and rejecting a number of possible explanations, it concludes that the dissent can plausibly be viewed as a revolutionary threat only by those who are committed to a radically nationalistic position. Upon examination, that position is found to be based not on majoritarianism but on an aspiration for exhaustive control by legal prescription.
