tejek, re:And the current pool ratio may be an indicator for where things are right now but I don't think its a good gauge for determining how many women justices should be on the Supreme Court. Women are 50% of the total population......I think that's the figure that should be the standard or benchmark........after all, the Court makes decisions that effect both men and women. There are obviously two competing ideas here both with validity - we have the fair representation to the population versus the best qualified. All things being equally distributed on a curve of best qualified within the pool it would be true the court should reflect the pool. Forcing the court to equality to match the population would (probably) be artificial as compared to the pool - is that the right thing to do? Perhaps. I personally believe the court should be the best qualified - the job is to critical to the country to be based on some other agenda. Of course the president in power at the time has an agenda - so it's already flawed in the beginning. :-(
