Dear Mr. President, please appoint Elizabeth Warren to the Supreme Court before the end of the week.
Sign our petition to the president, asking him to nominate Elizabeth Warren to the Supreme Court. And forward this to your friends, so that they can do the same.
Why Elizabeth Warren? She started waiting tables at the age of 13, a year after her father was driven into poverty by a heart attack followed by huge medical bills. She later taught children with disabilities. She was a Harvard Law Professor for almost two decades -- in fact, the only one there with tenure who had attended a public university.

Never had an American Indian in that position before. /sarc
Qualified? Since when is that an issue?
Warren did practice law for 8 years without a license. She’ll fit right in with the Washington elites.
Yes, I know, you don’t have to be a lawyer to be a supreme court justice. However, all of them now are lawyers and all of them went to top tier law schools. Lieawatha Warren definitely did not go to a top tier law school.
She's not the only one in that category.
