SMU was probably a better law school back in the day, as when they had Eric Dickerson. We dont need any more inside players on Scotus however. Insiders on the court is why we have go along to get along justices who wont roll back the Warren legacy
You may be right, I don't know. When I applied to law school some 29 years ago it was not on my radar screen as a national law school, which means it was not generally considered to be tier one or upper tier two.
We dont need any more inside players on Scotus however. Insiders on the court is why we have go along to get along justices who wont roll back the Warren legacy.
I understand the concern. I want a strong conservative nominee, just one with top academic and professional credentials. I don't think it helps our cause to nominate someone whose primary claim to fame is close connection to the President and who has not demonstrated the kind of legal mind necessary to be a good judge.
