Federal Election Commission, and Miranda v. Arizona, the Court has determined the outcome of a presidential race, declared women have the right to abortions, struck down segregation, upheld campaign finance reform laws, and stipulated that police officers must inform those accused of crime their rights.

In the latter part of the 16th century, Spain was the major international power and her leader, King Phillip II, pledged to conquer the Protestant heretics in England. He envisioned a two pronged attack. He would send his ‘Invincible Armada’ of 125 ships into the English Channel where it would link up with the Duke of Parma. The Armada would ferry the Duke's soldiers across the straight of Dover and these troops would march on London, seize the Queen, and proceed to conquer the entire country. Over 400 years have passed since this momentous expedition 'sailed and failed', but its fascination and significance remain undiminished.
