Sadly coveritlive has put me against my usage limit again. So I will answer any questions you have in the comments here, and copy and paste them back to this page.

At the bottom of this post is a link to comments. Please ask them there and I will answer them during the review session time on Wednesday.

Thanks!

Can you explain the selection process for Supreme Court justices?

 Sean H said...

SC Justices are nominated by the president and confirmed/rejected by the Senate. They go through the vetting process and are asked questions by the Senate Judiciary committee, then voted upon by the committee and entire body respectively

How about the active vs. restraint model?

 Sean H said...

Restraint: Stick to the Constitution, precedent
Active: Be a bit more flexible, read between the lines, change policy from bench
