    Winners write the history OA, and FDR made the Democrats the winners for a long long time

    FDR was the worst kind of statist.. threatening to stack the court just to get his way... The way he was venerated in the history books was despicable.

    I have no issue with presidents appointing Supreme Court justices. I have an issue with the Supreme Court legislating.

    @avanti, I never suggested that SCOTUS justices should run for office. Although I have insisted that some of them are, at best, celebrities.

    Justices will have to raise campaign funds.
    Do we really want Microsoft or GM picking our next justice?

    @Eud,
    I considered that, but do we really want our SCOTUS campaigning for office?
    The circus you are watching now will be repeated for the Supreme Court. Then, how do the justices raise money for their campaign. Think about it, do you really want Microsoft picking your next justice?

    @avati I agree with that, changing the law so that Supreme Court Justices have term limits. Or better yet, make them run for office and then give them term limits...

    Avati. Add congress to that. Term limits. There's a reason for those!

    @kevinw, sure, it's easy. The moderators choose who speaks, when, and for how long.

    Wait... The Supreme Court justices are supposed to have respect for the constitution? I must have missed something the last 12-15 years
