I'm sticking to my one judge proposal.

I disagree with this proposal on several grounds:
- A single person, no matter how approved, would have a significant amount of power.
- Judicial appointments would be very politicized, and independence restricted.
- Senators might not be willing to agree on one candidate, and the previous officeholder would stay in office for a lengthy period of time.

Instead, I propose the following plan:

Three justices be appointed by the President, with the advice and consent of the Senate, for six-month terms, except that for the first three appointments, one judge's term expire within two months, and the second expire within four months. A new justice would be appointed every second month.

With minor changes I'd have to agree with my collegue and the distiginused Gentlemen from Emsworth from New Jersey

the justices should not be for a lifelong term
