RedStateVT Exclusive! Obama's SCOTUS Nominee List

RedStateVT has obtained a copy of the closely guarded secret list of President Obama's potential Supreme Court nominees. We present the list below along with our commentary explaining the likely rationale for Obama's choices.

1) Hillary Clinton (if she does not get the Democrat nomination for president)

Rationale: Consolation prize for Hillary. Plus Barack is tired of hearing that Bill and Hillary think he jumped the line in 2008 and squeezed Hillary out of her presidential birthright. Obama: I let you play at Secretary of State and now you can be a pretend Justice. The debt is paid. 

2) Bernie Sanders (if he does not get the Democrat nomination for president)

Rationale: Consolation prize for Bernie. Plus Barack wants to keep Sanders busy with something else besides disparaging the rich given that he (Obama) has every intention of getting rich after he leaves office. Also, it will give Sonia Sotomayer someone to have lunch with.

3) Johnnie Cochran

Rationale: No one has successfully used the court system more to gin up racial conflict in the U.S. than the flamboyant JC. If the Republican racists in Congress refuse to consider Cochran's nomination on the grounds that he is dead, Obama will default to the Rev. Al Sharpton. While Sharpton is not a lawyer, Obama will make the case that Sharpton knows the legal system well given his 'representation' of assorted criminals and his own legal travails. No Justice No Peace!

4) Barack H. Obama

Rationale: No one knows more about (shredding) the Constitution than the former constitutional law professor.


Not on the list:

President-in-Waiting Elizabeth Warren
Rationale: She is the President-in-Waiting.

Nevada Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval
Rationale: Obama's rope-a-dope about nominating a Republican didn't even fool the normally gullible Republicans.

Joe Biden
Rationale: Obama has finally had enough of Biden's mouth. The VP's comments arguing against filling a SC vacancy in an election year may have come decades ago, but Republicans are now calling it "the Biden rule." It's a no go for Joe.
