Do We Have Some Interesting Supreme Court Nominees In Our Midst?

Dear Mr. President,


As you evaluate nominees to replace Justice Souter on the U.S. Supreme Court, please consider two outstanding law professors - Steven Gey and Michael Goldsmith. Both are accomplished attorneys who have shown courage beyond belief and have taught the law to a myriad of students. As they both deal with ALS, you can be assured that their minds are as sharp as ever and their judgement has the added wisdom that comes from confronting the really important things in life.

Oh, you had someone with a longer life expectancy in mind? If we would simply have funded ALS research correctly and attacked it smartly and aggressively, that would not have been a problem.

Are you up for a really daring choice for Supreme Court nominee? ...or else some really smart and aggressive ALS research funding? Either or both would be fine with many of us.

Sincerely,

Sleepy
