Presidency and the Constitution. The making of a justice
Description
On what basis should Supreme Court justices be nominated and appointed? Should the Court be representative of the general population? Should there be a 'woman's' seat? A 'black' seat? Should the president choose justices using ideology as the sole criterion? This programs pushes panelists that include a former President, judges, legal scholars and journalists covering the Court to explore the tough questions involved in selecting Justices for our highest Court.
