It is what we call a nonjusticiable political question. It would be\u00a0decided by Congress and not by the courts. And it reflects on her judicial philosophy, I think because her answer on that would tell us a little bit about how strongly she feels about the court\u2019s independence. It concerns me that she hasn\u2019t been willing to offer her opinion.
