I hope they put Kavanaugh in there. I just Kavanaugh does not become like Roberts. I guess in the judicial system taking a middle of the line approach is the healthiest approach to take, but it can be very dangerous in the end game and when ensuring that certain pretexts and contexts inscribed in the legal code are not misinterpreted on some basis of being "balanced" and "even-handed."
This could have a drastic impact on the lower courts and future decisions on certain matters and if a case becomes significant enough and no legislation has tended to all the fuzzy logic working in the system can be interpreted to frame new amendments in that constitution that would be damaging to the country.
Enough damage has been wielded with the ignorance or way concepts have been employed to justify a pretext/context in the legal code being applied in this manner to this particular situation, so as to create this "general spirit" embodied in the "spirit" of the constitution.
