4. Min of two but max of 3 or 4!!

Obama is already thinking about it.

Standard #1 is that they have to be progressive.

2. But conservative for decades.

6. It'd be nice to see Obama on the Court after serving for 8 years as POTUS.

It's been done before. :shrug:

7. Yes... but I'd like to see Obama continue as elder statesmen of the dems after his 8 years in offic

Kinda like a Bill Clinton without the baggage.
