    Put Al Gore on the Supreme Court says Hendrik Hertzberg. As he admits, it isn't going to happen. But after reading this I have to think that Jennifer Granholm is a strong candidate. She's lacking in some departments, but she's barely 50 and she's not a judge.

    Quoted: The heart of a Justice’s job is interpreting and applying the Constitution, and for that things like a knowledge of history (including Constitutional history), a feel for the workings of government, a strong moral sense, an ability to think and write clearly, and a temperamental affinity for the long view—all of which Gore has in spades—are much more important than a professional familiarity with the details of contract or case law.
