Accordingly, if Ms. Clinton becomes president, Senate Republicans should give her a list of acceptable nominees — not limited to conservatives; that inappropriately would be dictating to the president — in the mold of Justice Anthony Kennedy. Sometimes he votes with the four conservative justices, sometimes with the liberals. Providing a list of acceptable centrist nominees would not only be legitimate, but wholly consistent with the constitutional prescription that "consent" be predicated upon the phrase "by and with the Advice" of the Senate. |

All, that's ALL middle of the road supreme court nominees later voted anti-freedom and departed from constitution intents. Even some of the constitution professing nominees became anti-bill of rights justices once in office. Can we realize a Trojan Horse attempt here? |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
Before a standing army can rule, the people must be disarmed; as they are in almost every kingdom of Europe. The supreme power in America cannot enforce unjust laws by the sword; because the whole body of the people are armed, and constitute a force superior to any bands of regular troops that can be, on any pretense, raised in the United States. — Noah Webster in "An Examination into the Leading Principles of the Federal Constitution," 1787, in Paul Ford, ed., Pamphlets on the Constitution of the United States, at p. 56 (New York, 1888). |
