[Non-Sequitur]

It may help, but the Court can and does make decisions along purely political/ideological lines rather than what the founders intended.

True. But what alternative is there that wouldn't be even more inclined to make those decisions based on purely political/ideological/regional/social lines? Any system dependent on people will have it's flaws and abuses. The idea is to minimize those as much as possible.

Politics has always been involved with the court. It is an imperfect system. I don't know the solution.
