    You can’t send him to Washington. He’d be exhausted.

    And, if you watched the mini-series, you'd know he's unavailable.

    I'm only on season 7. Don't tell me.

    Yes, there are two paths you can go by, but in the long run, there's still time to change the road you're on.

        I saw that today. Did not read it (Newsmax, y’know), but how exactly would that work? I don’t want to have to wade thru all the ED potion ads.

              quota-based diversity

              Yes, another black justice will make 22% of the court black

              Only 12% of the country is black, 22% appears to be too many justices of color

              But wait, you are doing the wrong math. There have 114 Supremes, and only 2 black. There is a long way to go.

                                Wiki lists all the mock trials she participated in with the Shakespeare company and none of what she has heard in her 7 months at the appellate level.

                                I'm not saying she isn't qualified, but I haven't found much yet to say she is. To be continued.

                                    Well, there's a qualification, to be sure.

                                    It'll be interesting, during confirmation hearings, to see if that comes up. SCOTUS is supposed to be above politics, right?
