Filling the Vacancy on Our Supreme Court

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg DEAD at 87 from Pancreatic Cancer...

What now?

More than likely, the Republicans will attempt and quite possibly succeed in appointing a conservative justice to the Supreme Court before the November 3, 2020 Presidential Election.

If that happens, the Supreme Court will be out-of-balance between conservatives and liberals with a 5 to 3 conservative majority plus the Chief Justice who is conservative as well.

Is this imbalance appropriate for our country?

While I am no longer a full-fledged liberal, I think that our Founding Fathers always envisioned FAIRNESS in how they set up our Democratic Republic form of government and that FAIRNESS commands a balance-of-power platform.

And, while I am not supportive of Pelosi, Schiff, and Nadler in the House, I think that our country deserves this Democratic Party control there especially since the Senate is controlled by the Republicans.

Most every time that we have had a situation where one party controls both houses of Congress plus the Presidency, we have had movements in ONE DIRECTION that did not necessarily favor our country as a whole but favored the platforms of that POLITICAL PARTY whether it be liberal or conservative.

WE MUST MAINTAIN BALANCE...  whether we like it or not.
