I looked at some of the possible candidates now, and I kinda want Obama to pick Sri Srinivasan. He was confirmed 97-0 to the DC court of appeals just three years ago, and I really want to see Republicans argue why they approved him then but not now. Also, he swore his oath of office on the Bhagavad Gita, and I'd love to see Republican heads explode, when he does the same for the Supreme Court.
Also, he's clearly brilliant, and I think he'd be the first Asian American on the court.
