(18,556 posts)I have not much interest in "a different court". SCOTUS has in the past made some notable bad calls. I would hope that any future rulings, be they tweaks or reversals, would be based on truth and reason. The Obamas are Harvard grads and the Harvard motto, Veritas is part of the coat of arms of Harvard Law. The idea that law is fluid and may change at the will of the popular vote or "feeling" of the court is no more desirable than having the law depend on the capricious whims of a tyrant. The must be based on and reflect liberty and justice.
Sam Adams referred to what we have here in the US as "...the animating contest of freedom...". The quest of our courts, executives and legislatures is the balance between order and freedom. I'm sure most of the folks, including yourself, on both sides of this debate are wanting the best for everyone.
Have a nice night.
