[QUOTE]Originally posted by Zefram: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Daniel Butler: [qb]and all she seems to care about is who doesn't or does support abortion - and that's not even anything the President has any power to do anything about![/qb][/QUOTE]Not necessarily: one of the President's most far-reaching powers is the power to appoint Supreme Court justices. It is theoretically possible, although unlikely, that a President, or a series of like-minded Presidents, could appoint enough pro-life justices to overturn Roe v. Wade. I personally support the idea of strict constructionist judges; i.e. judges who refuse to make a decision on something that the Constitution remains silent on. Under strict constructionist judges, Roe v. Wade would never have been decided by the U.S. Supreme Court and the decision would have reverted to the states. Thus, for example, abortion would be illegal in Utah while it would be legal in Vermont. [/QB][/QUOTE]
