Top 10 Supreme Court Justices in American History

I think a worst Supreme Court justice list would be a little weird, but a most partisan list would be pretty interesting.

Derrick

That is a solid point. Lately it has been conservatives going on and on about freedom of speech.

Mr. Beat

Yeah Potter Stewart isn't exactly a household name. lol

Mr. Beat

I love these Supreme Court episodes! I hadn’t heard of a lot of these justices and it was fun to learn about them.

BAsed on what i read on his wikapedia page id say my statement stands i dont think he would be considered Radical left. pro free speech puts him as a liberal at worse (Think Tulsi Gabbert) but no one could accuse him of being radical Left by todays standards.

Devin Canada

WOOP WOOP I WAS RIGHT!!

Devin Canada

Based on what you have described William Dougless i dont think he would be considered Radical Left by conservatives. the Radical left wishes to censor free speech not expand it. William Dougless sounds like a Ben Shapiro or Steven Crowder to me based on your description of his first amendment beliefs (and that being the only thing i know of him so far.)

Devin Canada

ohhh John Story Wrote a book is it avalible i wonder. got to remember title "Commentaries on the constitution fo the United States."

Devin Canada

ok 4 minutes in im betting John Marshell gets number one, and howerd Taft dosnt make the list. lets see if i get both right.

Devin Canada

That's classified information. 😆

Mr. Beat

How about Pets of Supreme Court Justices? Ha!

Robert F.

Another great one, and wonderful quote!

Mr. Beat

Awesome list! My favorite is probably Robert Jackson, FDR appointee and the last justice not to have a law degree. I think a list of the worst 10 would be cool. “If there is any fixed star in our constitutional constellation, it is that no official, high or petty, can prescribe what shall be orthodox in politics, nationalism, religion, or other matters of opinion or force citizens to confess by word or act their faith therein." -Justice Robert Jackson, West Virginia v. Barnette
