I want to play the devil's advocate here by saying that, taking a realistic view of society like many of the founding fathers, people are generally not intelligent, not well educated, and certainly not politically minded. For this reason, an enlightened body such as the SCOTUS SHOULD make decisions for the better of society, even if they do not go with what the 'ignorant masses' would desire.
