her area of expertise is not one that is particularly useful for a USSC Justice. There are far better qualified liberal ladies as well-such as Stanford's brilliant Pam Karlan (who is female and a lesbian BTW)

Women attorneys…what’s that?
Would she be the first Native American to serve on the Supreme Court?

There are three hands. On one, she would be great. On the second, she is so linked to politics, there's an issue with the idea of her as a non-political Justice. On the third, Republicans put their *frickin nominee for the presidency* on the Supreme Court where he blocked FDR's agenda, so that ship has sailed.

She's far too political, lacking in Bench experience.

Don’t forget, Kagan had zero bench experience before her appointment.


* Not an endorsement of Warren for SCOTUS Justice.

I like her views on bankruptcy law. But I doubt many of those cases will be finding their way before her if she received the nomination.

I sort of like the idea of broadening that idea of what is or is not 'particularly useful as a field of expertise on the Court. Not a bad thing if one has more tax law experience, another has maritime or military law experience, another was a lifelong public defender, and another hung around divorce and family law courts for a decade or so before going into appelate work.

I tend to wonder a little more if Warren has that judicial temperament or not, can she 'play well with others' on the court etc.

Fauxchahontas a Supreme Court Justice?

Supreme Court of what, the "Southy" tribes?

Good grief - the gall of anyone presuming EW would be a good SCJ is appalling.

Being a prosecutor, a law professor and an author do not make a supreme court justice IMO. She has way too little bench experience in landmark cases.

She's 72 years old. Ideally, I'd like to have a Justice who will be capable of serving 30 or so years.

I like Goodwin Liu on the California Supreme Court.
I was about to say. It would be a waste to nominate her. I can't believe anyone would give her serious consideration.

how many right wing choices have been the perfect choice .....? I think she could set aside politics in the best interest of that position and America.
