<< Justice belongs to those that can manipulate the system. Judges should not be lawyers, plus the system should be opened up for representatives other than lawyers. >>

Absolutely.

It is ridiculous that the endemically interest-conflicted failed lawyers and the few other low life scoundrels that comprise America's political classless should take time from their real business: -- that of rearranging their "interpretation" of the American Constitution in order it more conveniently enrichen themselves and their lawyer henchmen: -- and sit about pontificating about such matters as "conflicts of interest" among the various activities and investments of political appointees to this or that [Invariably-unconstitutional] feral-gummint department.

Just as it is ridiculous that generations of Americans have sat still and, as if enthralled, still sit still, while those elected to represent US have have effectively disenfranchised every American while so gerrymandering the "electoral system" as to appoint and re-appoint only themselves -- and others of their choosing.

And while they have so stacked our "courts" as to have given every feral court -- and especially the supreme court -- more tyrannical power than that once held by England's king George the third!

Tyrannical power that is wielded unconstitutionally, unlawfully, illegally, as often as not criminally -- and always ruthlessly -- by way of the "judicial" fiat of party apparatchiks posing as "judges" -- and perpetuated by way of the bad habit that is "stare decisis!" [Adhering to decided cases!]

With far less provocation, our Founding Fathers fought Our Beloved FRaternal Republic's War of Independence.

Perhaps we will one day find similar courage?

No where in the Constitution for the United States does it state one has the right to an attorney. It does however state;

"...and to have the assistance of counsel for his defense."

6th Amendment of the Constitution for the United States.

I believe it was Paul Harvey that stated (several years ago) on one of his radio programs that when this country was first settled, just about every kind of vermin came over with the ships, but the one thing the people made absolutely sure would not come over (at least for the first 100 or so years) were lawyers.

Now I'm not saying every lawyer in this country is scum and some may really be trying to do something good. The problem is even the so-called good lawyers are still practicing law within a corrupt (most of the time un-constitutional) system. One can not make things right while still working within a system that is wrong.

Shakespeare was correct when he stated that; 'in order to make a perfect society, one must kill all lawyers.'
