    Biden Tells '60 Minutes' How He Plans to Change the Court Process.....

    Forget trying to get a straight answer out of Democratic nominee Joe Biden on court packing. But it sounds like the former vice president finally has some kind of response to the question. In a recent sit down with CBS's Norah O'Donnell for "60 Minutes," Biden still didn't offer a "yes "or "no" on adding more justices to the Supreme Court, but he did share how he plans to "reform" the court process.



    "If elected, what I'll do is I'll put together a bipartisan Commission of Constitutional Scholars - Democrats, Republicans, liberals, conservatives - and I will ask them to over 180 days come back to me with recommendations as to how to reform the court system," Biden shared.


    Because, he said, it's "getting out of whack."



    O'Donnell pursued what that meant. Again, does that mean he'll pack the court?
    "There's a number of alternatives that go well beyond packing," he said. Whatever that means......snip~

    There was an article on Drudge yesterday or today about options. They are floating term or age limits. But I don't see how that can be done without a Constitutional Amendment. Also some sort of lottery- not sure what that is since I didn't pay much attention to the article. Same constitutional issue.

    This isnt working out like the Demos thought. I guess they thought there would be more support for it.

    I support a Constitutional amendment for term limits for all politicians including judges and justices.
    Call your state legislators and insist they approve the Article V convention of States to propose amendments.


    I pledge allegiance to the Constitution as written and understood by this nation's founders, and to the Republic it created, an indivisible union of sovereign States, with liberty and justice for all.

    Sure, it's getting out of whack because the conservatives finally have the numeric advantage.
    As for his bipartisan commission, sure there will probably be one conservative and one Republican. And 10 Democrats advocating court packing.
    It's a shame Trump is so evil that he nominates justices when there are vacancies.

    Its just another way for the Demos to undermine the Constitution. Plus another way for the Demos to politicize the courts.

    You don't need an amendment for Congressmen.
