First step. Federal District Court judges only have jurisdiction for orders within their judicial district.

Second step. Federal judges to stand for confirmation by voters every eight years. No confidence - they are gone.

Seems like that would put a presidential Order straight to SCOTUS. Agree that it's nuts to let folks "circuit court shop" but how many issues (like a presidential decree on immigration) are contained by certain judicial districts?

Can't even require that each district weigh in because then we would have a mish-mash of districts with legal means to go contrary to an overarching Federal order.

Second step. Federal judges to stand for confirmation by voters every eight years. No confidence - they are gone.

I don't see anything wrong with this one - like it.
