When the People are Caesar

Just a little politics and a hint of religion, here – and reactive at that:

Much fuss and bother about the new nominee to the Supreme Court, as we as the unusual withdrawal of the last nominee. With not a few blaming all on the “Religious Right” or the “Extreme Right.”

I’d like to point the not-so-right to the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution. “We the People” are the government.

The visible influence of the nomination of Justices to the Supreme Court by backers of the elected Administration is simply representative democracy is at work.
