RE:
Appointed Officials —
Attorney General; National Security Advisor; FBI Director;
Prosecutors et al. — especially Federal and Supreme Court Judges
To prevent future Authoritarian-minded presidents from appointing
unqualified, sycophantic, self-serving,
individuals who — to satisfy their
Boss — are willing to ignore the Constitution and
the rights of those who disagree with their
Boss' anti-American politicies, . . .
. . . Federal-level appointments must be made according to the
Nominating Committee rules hereinafter
described in our
Even-Number Solution.
Regarding Supreme Court Term Limits
The
politically-biased interpretations of our
Constitution, now being made by
lifetime-tenured justices, make it vitally important that a
constitutional amendment limiting
the tenure of all federal judges be ratified.
Moreover, like any other human being,
Justices are not infallible. As human beings, they are prone
to make
emotional, biased or questionable decisions that affect millions of individuals.
Accordingly, consistent with our foregoing
Americratic conclusions, we hereby extend
our suggestions. To wit:
The Even-Number Solution
To ensure
unbiased, UNANIMOUS and
egalitarian court decisions that affect the lives of millions
of individuals, an equally bipartisan,
5+5,
10-member Supreme Court should be established.
Nominating Committee
- Nominating Committee: Senate majority and minority leaders shall appoint a four-member (4)
committee (2 per party) for the sole purpose of nominating qualified candidates to fill a vacant chair, provided that:
- All prospective nominees for the Supreme Court shall first be referred to the Senate.
- No Senate member shall have had any prior business or personal relationship with recommended nominees.
- The Senate cannot prevent nomination of qualified, recommended nominees.
- The Senate must promptly refer qualified, recommended nominees to the nominating committee.
- A full four-member (4) nominating committee approval shall be required to validate all nominations.
- Promptly after nominations have been approved by the nominating committee, Senate majority leader must bring
nominations up for a Senate approval vote.
- Term of Office: 10-year maximum.
- Confirmation: shall be approved by a 2/3 Senate majority.
- Expulsion: Impeachment by House of Representatives majority vote and
conviction by Senate 2/3 majority vote required to expel any Justice before his or her Term has
expired.
- Premature Vacancy: filling a premature court vacancy due to expulsion,
death or otherwise, shall begin promptly after a qualified, prospective nominee is recommended.
