It should be a woman, the Supreme Court needs a woman's voice because it lost a woman's voice.

They don't, but only Catholics and Jews from the Ivies are best for SCOTUS? There are lots of smart lawyers in the countryUsername checks out said:Osodecentx said:I'm fine with a woman. I'm also fine with a Protestant who did not graduate from an Ivy League law school.Gruvin said:

No (avowed) Atheists, Muslims, Hindus, or Mormons either. No Jewish representation now either. Why do Protestants need special call out?

I wasn't arguing one way or the other regarding diversity. I was noting user's comment regarding no Jewish representation that two current justices were raised Jewish.Osodecentx said:Why not more diversity?90sBear said:Yes, I know.Osodecentx said:The other 7 are Catholic or were raised Catholic (Gorsuch)90sBear said:Elena Kagan, Stephen BreyerUsername checks out said:Osodecentx said:I'm fine with a woman.

Personally I think more diversity in backgrounds would be a good thing, especially in terms of where they were raised. I understand the critique of all Ivy League law schools and that there are a number of other quality law schools throughout the US, but to me where and how they spent their formative years might matter a little more. Just my opinion.
