10 People Who Should Have Been Nominated For Supreme Court Justice
Tumblr

This year's presidential election rallies on and gathering even more momentum the closer that fateful November day leers in the horizon. However, another important nomination bobbed relatively below the radar within the last month. Merrick Garland was chosen as the Supreme Court Justice by President Obama recently. With Donald Trump comically leading both angry supporters and taunting angry protesters, Hilary Clinton deflecting scandals that are a little more serious than dealing with a White House intern named Ms. Lewinsky and Bernie Sanders promising free tuition like the elementary school StuCo Rep promised no homework, it's easy to let your imagination run wild with what kind of character could be America's newest Supreme Court Justice at this rate.

10. Gretchen Weiners

There are few characters out there that are as loyal to whoever assumes power over their head, like the Toaster Strudel heiress. Gretchen always carefully accessed people, formed a judgment and then was sure to explain (gossip) why the guilty can't sit with us. She'd be perfect for this kind of position, even if she would secretly be jealous of the President.

9. Kris Jenner

You can say a lot about Kris Jenner, but nothing gets past her. The Danny Tanner of the modern day, scantily clad "Full House family." She manages to untangle her children out of numerous scandals and after years of watching her boss her former husband Bruce around it's clear she is a natural-born leader. She'd thrive as the Supreme Court Justice with her ability to see through any guilt-ridden face until they crack "yes mom I did make that tape, I'm sorry!" After years of her offspring causing mayhem, she has a keen sense when something is off.

8. Ellen

After years of putting people on the spot with that cunning smile and a friendly jab that barely grazes being snarky; she'd easily be able to scope out the truth quickly. If Americans count on her to crack the case on whether Kourtney and Justin really did have a fling, we can count on her to crack the equally important cases that the Supreme Court Justice has to deal with.

7. Rory Gilmore

After years of pining after Harvard and then going with her gut to Yale, it's evident she is not only intelligent enough to earn that spot, but holds herself to the kind of high standard a Supreme Court Justice should. Not to mention that Ivy League degree gives her more qualification than Gretchen.

9. Monica Geller

After years of arguably being the ringleader and mother hen of the five other Friends, she can handle responsibility and will hardly raise an eyebrow at any case or dilemma that lands in front of her.

5. Dwayne the rock Johnson

Would you second guess anything this man said? I wouldn't. Not to his face.

4. Nick Saban

He obviously knows what to do when it comes team work like the Supreme Court Justices. Saban also has to research, observe and determine whether someone deserves to be on the team. This parallels almost (kind of) with what Supreme Court Justices do.

3. Most Mothers

Once someone becomes a mom they develop this trait where they can look at someone and know if they're trouble, lying or fake. It's like a gift that is bestowed upon them for being in charge of another human for 18 years. Most mothers out there would probably be a very good, maybe a little stern, Supreme Court Justice.

2. Judge Judy

That woman has been on television for years, it's about time we gave her some leverage. Take her from your local channel 13 to her rightfully deserved place amongst the best.

1. Michael Scott

He made "The Office," "The Office" and I can only imagine his reign over only the most important cases in the country.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
