(18,775 posts)5. That's an interesting surmise.
Have any ex-presidents been anywhere near a Supreme Court nomination in the past?

He was Chief Justice, as a matter of fact.

(10,237 posts)7. Taft, later in his life, said...

Aristus
(68,332 posts)8. And he was better at that than as President.
He was a pro-business, anti-progressive Republican.
