Issac Asimov once said "I write for the same reason I breathe - because if I didn't I would die." I feel the same way. My poetry is an outlet for my frustration, my anger, my happiness, and my confusion. While reading the poetry contained in these pages you may feel those same emotions. My goal was to trap these feelings in the moment and set them free. Some of these pages contain advice that may benefit you in some way. Take to heart the words and emotions trapped here and then set your problems free as well. Don't let them drown you..... just let them go.
This new edition of this classic history of the Supreme Court discusses the selection, nomination, and appointment of each of the Justices who have sat on the U.S. Supreme Court since 1789. Abraham provides a fascinating account of the presidential motivations behind each nomination, examining how each appointee's performance on the bench fulfilled, or disappointed, presidential expectations.
Like many aspects of the nation's history, its elections have had their share of behind the scenes activity and drama. This work is an examination of each of the presidential contests and some of the unusual events surrounding them such as the back room convention deals, compromised candidates, campaign strategies, both successful and failures; and major effects on the outcomes due to such inventions as television. In some cases, a swing of just a few votes to another candidate could have had a profound effect on America's future.
Totally revised and updated, this classic history of the 110 members of the U.S. Supreme Court addresses the vital questions of why individual justices were nominated to the highest court, how their nominations were received, whether the appointees ultimately lived up to the expectations of the American public, and what their legacy was on the development of American law and society. Enhanced by photographs of every justice from 1789 to 2007.
