Quote:
And I propose an amendment to the U.S. Constitution
whose time is long overdue-to provide for popular control of the Federal
Judiciary, allowing the voters to recall Federal Judges and Supreme Court
Justices.

Why not use the constitution as originally penned. Article III, Section 2 gives congress the power to remove the right of appeal from SCOTUS. Regarding all there levels of federal courts, congress created it, congress can kill it, change it at its will. Congress can't do anything about SCOTUS justices short of impeachment.
I don't buy the argument we as a society are helpless in the face of an omnipotent and all powerful supreme court. We have the tools to control it. Congress has failed to exercise control.
