What will be the makeup of the person nominated to the Supreme Court?

 

[CrusaderFrank]

Obama will nominate himself

 

[Iceweasel]

She will be black, gay and to the left of Lenin. They are searching hard as we speak.

 

[ScienceRocks]

I hope it is a sane pro-science, pro infrastructure and pro federal government justice!

The only sane choice

 

[DigitalDrifter]

Whoever it is, it won't be good.

Might as well not have a southern border now if Obama is successful getting a replacement soon.

Let's start praying the GOP controlled Senate can keep the nomination bottled up as long as possible.

[Katzndogz]

obama will go for broke and,nominate eric holder.

I never thought this preezy would go so far as to assassinate a Supreme Court justice.

 

[Dhara]

WTF assassination rumors? Scalia died in his sleep.

you'd probably do better to look at who the current circuit justices are than to look at demographics.

 

[ScienceRocks]

Holder

 

[Dhara]

Funny, no one has mentioned any real qualifications other than demographics.

Hey will, how about Morgan Freeman? Seriously, I have no idea who is out there, but I am hoping for a moderate with a heart that doesn't rush to judgement. I believe the Constitution was meant to be a fluid document to be adjusted with the times while maintaining all the basic values so thoughtfully laid down by our fore-bearers. Do you have a person in mind?

Right

Because the people on this board keep up with the current circuit justices.

And how will the president decide on which current circuit justice will fit best on the court?

Will he pick them because of longevity in service, location, age, color hair, length of hair?

I posted a poll on general demographics.

I didn't include Republican, Democrat, Conservative, Moderate, Liberal, or Socialist, because that is pretty much a given depending on who the president is at the time.

Obama will nominate himself

I don't think that's possible. He'll have to resign and Joe will do it.

No.

I would like to see the short list.
