Clement would be a disaster she is for precedent.

All judges are for precedent.

If a judge is not, it puts chaos into the law.

Hardly true, the Supreme Court overturns itself all that time, more recently than in the past. They just protend not to, when doing so suits their purpose.

That said, the first precedent is the Constitution itself. It's written in plain English, aside from a few obsolete usages, and is understandable by anyone with an eighth grade education, at or the equivalent of one 50 years ago anyway.
