What makes Brett Kavanaugh a good choice for the Supreme Court? To answer that question, we need to first ask ourselves: what is the role of a Supreme Court Justice?

Here’s how Kay Coles James, president of the Heritage Foundation, answered those questions:

You see, the Constitution grants judges the power to determine whether a law is Constitutional – not the power to make or change them. That authority rests solely with the people’s representatives in Congress, as it should, and the Constitution itself can only be changed if Congress and the States amend it.

Adherence to these parameters is at the heart of our democracy. Fidelity to the Constitution is more important than any single issue, any political party, or any partisan interest. Indeed, all else has to be set aside in order to uphold the document that has enabled America to survive and thrive.

As a result, fairness, impartiality, and faithfulness to the Constitution aren’t just good things for a judge to be – they are the measure of whether a judge him or herself is good.

Judge Brett Kavanaugh is known for many things – and fairness, impartiality, and faithfulness to the Constitution are chief among them.
