He’s an old-fashioned liberal, not a totalitarian leftist type.
Time has passed him by in today’s Democrat party.
Many here have asked the rhetorical question as to where JFK would fit into today’s Democrat Party. We could ask similar questions about people like Jonathan Turley. We could ask why are they still officially Democrats, when that party has moved far beyond what they themselves say they believe.
These are the types of people who in an ideal world would be the type of people Democrat Presidents nominate as judges. We wouldn’t agree with all of their rulings, but they would not be written to make sweeping new laws as a super legislature, nor would they be designed isolate and demean people who disagree with them. Alas, those days are long gone...if they were ever here to begin with.
