Wisest man I know, very fair and he knows the Constitution.

Talked with Uncle Thatcher last night and he declines. Says he isn't getting closer to DC than 100 miles. Also said he didn't want to disappoint the ladies at the senior center but did say he would like the opportunity to visit RBG in her office for a "private" conference. (hey he is 93 yo)

For the first time in my adult life, a name that I know is being mentioned as a possible contender for Supreme Court nomination: Elizabeth Warren. There are not words for how much I respect her, and for how safe I think our Constitution would be in her hands. I would trust her to approach each decision unbiased and with a clear head. One vote for Warren!

I agree, she would be a great choice. Some member of Congress might find her too "activist."
