Yep wait till next year when Obama is out of office and HRC or Bernie nominate Obama to the court, after all he is a Constitutional Lawyer who graduated law school at Harvard.

Obama is to much of an attention whore for something like that.

How can he be a lawyer.

President "selfie stick" is too much of an attention whore to ever be on the SCOTUS. 
 
It would be beneath him.

I can't see him spending hours upon hours involved with case law. Hell, he doesn't show up for the presidential briefings half the time.
 
Some of his colleagues at the University of Chicago, where he was a senior lecturer claimed he was a slacker.

Drivel.

Drivel.

She has no actual intellectual personal opinions or arguments on anything. So drivel is an apropos description. She posts items only to gain an emotional response and nothing more.

That's also why I made my comment last night (tongue in cheek) before going out to dinner. I knew it would illicit the same reaction from her that she tries to get out of us. And it worked and made me chuckle.

Exactly, would cut into his golf time and desire to be in front of the public for his sycophant followers.

The People should raise the salaries of Supreme Court Justices to 1 Million per year but also require them to have no personal holdings in the Stock Market. If they retire they live off a very nice Government pension and nothing more. As much as possible they should be prevented from the lure of any self interests either Political or Religious and only serve to uphold the Constitution.

The Supreme Court should be as unbiased as humanly possible.
