It would seem to me that it would not be without merit to establish a national association similar to the ABA, but certainly not the ABA, but perhaps made up of attorneys who have left the ABA, and headed by someone like Justice Newby to classify judicial nominees regarding their tendency to be activist or non-activist judges. This would be separate from their classification of qualified or not based on strictly knowledge of the law and court procedures, etc. This truly should be a national issue for debate with the purpose of solidifying a solution to one of the most obvious flaws in the US judicial system.
Superb idea. We'd need a "David Horowitz" from the legal community for that task........and I already have a candidate. It's John Plecnik, who is a law student at Duke University, and happens also to be a good friend of Judson Cox, the founder, Editor in Chief and Publisher of The North Carolina Conservative newspaper.
John Plecnik's email is: John.Plecnik@law.duke.edu
John writes splendid articles on the abuses of power in the judiciary, and he has the focus and energy to start up exactly the kind of organization that you smartly propose. Let's send him some encouragement!
