>>>Basically, the need is to stop appointing lawyers as judges<<<

You are so right!! We must also stop electing lawyers as judges, at the local and state judiciary level, and create a pool of non lawyer judges for the Federal system to appoint from.

Lawyers have become manipulators of the law, for personal profit. Justice has fallen by the wayside. As an extension of this "manipulation", far too many congressmen are lawyers.

A doctor cannot manufacture a sick person for profit, a lawyer goes looking for "victims". Bad profession.
