Justice Obama?
August 26, 2020 at 6:58 am

There’s been some loose talk on the interwebz that Biden will nominate Barack Obama to fill a vacancy that’s sure to come up on the Supreme Court. Assuming that Biden is elected and the Democrats take the Senate, do you think Obama would accept the nomination? And would he be confirmed?

I think she might be OK with it.

The Supreme Court would be lucky to have Obama.

I doubt he would.
He doesn't deserve the aggravation....

Well, it’s part-time and comparatively light work compared to his last government job. And he seems to have a genuine passion for public service. I don’t think he’d turn it down.

I concur, but that’s not what I asked. Do you think he’d accept the nomination?
