DirkJohanson: Easy to Find Successor to Kagan
Law.com ran an article today discussing who would succeed Elena Kagan as Solicitor General of the United States, to which I commented: “It shouldn’t be that hard to find a replacement equally as qualified as Kagan: after all, there are plenty of people – like Kagan- who aren’t straight white guys [and] who have never done [a single] oral argument in their legal career [prior to taking the job].”
For those of you not versed what the Solicitor General does, oral argument is a big part of the job, and its something hundreds of thousands of attorneys throughout the United States have experience with, and that thousands of attorneys – in fact, perhaps tens of thousands of attorneys – do on a regular basis.
More on the Kagan nomination later, assuming she’s still in consideration by the time I get around to it, and hasn’t been offered a job she’s equally qualified for: Designated Hitter for the Yankees.
Take a look at this picture and judge for yourself. After all, based solely upon amount of judicial experience, you’re at least as qualified as Kagan to judge anything.
What am I saying! If you’re part of my intended readership – guys – you’re almost undoubtedly MORE qualified.
