    The research is clear: judicial elections and the money that pours through them undermine judges’ ability to perform their constitutional functions. A new Brennan Center report makes recommendations to ensure they can do their jobs fairly and equitably. https://bit.ly/2PyFgy8 pic.twitter.com/RxodMhIU2U

        11. State Legislatures, people should be able fire State Supreme Court judges. Independent board makes recommendations for state judges - Governor may pick from this list or not. Far too often, judicial recommendations governor gets are morons who are enemies US Constitution.

        8. to be able to sue businesses. Trial by jury was very important to them - mentioned in Declaration of Independence. Wall Street banks that sexually harass their employees should not be protected by binding arbitration agreements. Employees have a right to sue employers when

        7. Judges on US Supreme Court who do not realize binding arbitration agreements have never been constitutional where value in controversy exceeds $20 - Amendment 7 should be put in prison for many years and do hard time. Many of our founders owned businesses and wanted people

        5. Amendment US Constitution - State Legislatures should have power to fire judges on US Supreme Court. It would be nice to have real conservative judges and real progressive judges on US Supreme Court who enforce Amendment Nine and Amendment 10.

        4. Many judges on US Supreme Court are enemies of many of Bill of Rights, other parts Constitution. I have discussed this many times on twitter. Before Amendment 17 ratified, State Legislatures via US Senators they chose had say on Judges on US Supreme Court.

        1. I am going to discuss US Supreme Court and then State Supreme Courts. Our founders came up with our check and balance system to reduce odds a Hitler like leader could cause great harm in USA. Hamilton talks about Pericles, Carthage, etc in Federalist 6.
