voted yes, because we need a Jewish majority on the supreme court
What the Court really needs is a good, Bible-believing Baptist.
What the Court really needs is a mandatory retirement age.
This is one of my least favorite ideas in political reform discourse. It's worse than term limits.
I have to concede this will easily result in Presidents appointing younger and younger candidates, but I'm not very comfortable with the idea of someone sitting on the court for like 40 years.
The obvious solution is to put term limits. 18 years, with one Justice's seat up every 2 years, seems reasonable.
This is such an easily implemented solution. Have each justice's term come up on 1/20, one and three years after the presidential inauguration, so they're as far removed from electoral politics as possible. Or maybe have them come up in November for the same reason. Whatever the timing, it's a good-good idea.
