Potential Kerry Supreme Court nominees
http://www.nytimes.com/2004/10/22/politics/campaign/22kbench.html

Some people who could be considered for the Supreme Court, according to interviews with several Democratic advisers:

Harold Hongju Koh, the dean of Yale Law School. Professor Koh, a widely admired scholar who has worked in both Democratic and Republican administrations, would be the court's first Asian-American member.

Kathleen M. Sullivan, a professor and former dean at Stanford Law School.

Diana Gribbon Motz, a federal appeals court judge in Baltimore who has been a powerful dissenter on a largely conservative court.

Sonia Sotomayor, a federal appeals court judge in New York.

Other candidates include Walter E. Dellinger and Seth P. Waxman, both former solicitors general; David S. Tatel and Merrick Garland, federal appeals court judges in Washington; Elena Kagan, the dean of Harvard Law School; and Dennis Archer, who has served as a Michigan Supreme Court justice, mayor of Detroit and president of the American Bar Association.

2. Al Gore for Chief Justice!
It's only fair. Let him undo the wrongs done to him and others. He deserves the honor.

4. Cuomo is too old
We need to keep this person on the court for the next 25 to 30 years.
