We should expand the Supreme Court. I am serious. We should add another 100 justices. Tack an addition onto the building in Washington.

I suggest this because of the way we now go about selecting justices. We select them on the basis of sex and race. And then we pat ourselves on the back. And we tell each other our court is now more “representative” and more “inclusive.”

More representative and inclusive of what? Well, of Hispanics. And African-Americans. And women.

This seems to me to be a highly prejudiced way to select justices. Justice is supposed to be blind. But, hey, what do I know?  People who know about these things tell me we just have to have a Hispanic judge. And one or two African-Americans. And some women. And I say “Go for it.”

But I also have to ask about the Asians. We’ve got lots of Asian-Americans. We’ve got lots of Native Americans. How come these folks don’t get included when “inclusion” comes around? We’ve got lots of Protestants. How come they don’t get represented when our court becomes more “representative”? (I may be wrong, but I believe there are no Protestants on the bench.) And don’t get me started on illegal immigrants. Who represents them?
