I would agree, except for the fourth item. Also, I would add that since the advice and consent envisioned by the Constitution did not, and does not, require referral to a committee for hearings and testimony by the nominee, hearings hereafter shall be dispensed with and the nomination be considered directly by the full senate.
My proposal stops just short of yours; there’s nothing wrong in principle with conducting Judiciary Committee discussions of the nominee’s record or of his responses to written interrogatories - without television and without the nominee being expected to answer extemporaneously.I’m not sure why you seem to like televised committee meetings but don’t want any meetings at all.
