Roberts is getting that job

In an article discussing why Roberts is qualified and virtually a shoe-in for the nomination, I came across this quote:

" But he quickly added that "the ideal in the American justice system is epitomized by the fact that judges -- justices -- do wear black robes, and that is meant to symbolize the fact that they're not individuals promoting their own particular views, but . . . doing their best to interpret the law, to interpret the Constitution, according to the rule of law."

I didn't know that. Fascinating.
