david jackson and she asked anti the package and consulate documents have
been quite president obama's victory could spell the and of a conservative
supreme court
for the first time
like forty years this has been
they've decades long campaign by conservative until the last thing the
jordy on the u_s_ supreme court
if mitt romney had been elected that may have been a reality
with the election of president obama to a second term
we now have the possibility depending on whether president obama a point one two
or three supreme court justices and specifically which justices he's
replacing
of actually having a liberal supreme court i want to
propose an idea
if we look at the progress that's been made over the last forty years on
everything from civil rights including uh... uh... racial equality
marriage equality etcetera
some of the progress on the war on drugs
all the different things that we have made strides on a lot for years with a
conservative supreme court
imagine what could happen if we finally get a liberal supreme court were talking
about huge things here those and it's pretty bad that we even have to frame it
this way right
that we have to say will currently is a republican but we prefer liberal supreme
court because they are a lot right shouldn't just be the light
all this should be inside record your political ideals should not be a play
not be a style
battle with no
so this is a big deal it depends on who gets replaced on it and i think
right uh... in order to shift the balance in favor of a five to four
liberal majority you would have to probably see sculley uh... or anthony
kennedy retire
uh... repair it improve the retires him but that's not gonna happen acting for
the liberals so what'll happen
