@jontheniceguy add me on Skype. It doesn't look like you are online to me, so I can't start the conference call. -

@mv this is what it would be like...only more fighting. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0QMgGf-OX4&feature=relmfu -

@nrlucre and I are going to have an Argentine lawyer on our show in a few minutes. We always end with a track. Any Argentine CC suggestions? -

I'm still not sure how or why organizing people for or against legislation or constitutional amendments doesn't fit into that. Why is that not "start building a different one"? -

perhaps if they win one, inconsequentual debate, they will feel empowered to move forward. -

@mv I suppose the more direct question is "how do you convince people to take to the streets?" -

@mv if SCOTUS is 20 years behind the mainstream and the system never works, that means the mainstream is wrong. How do you combat the fact that the majority of people appear not to agree with you? After listening to 49 episodes of your show, I'm not sure I understand your vision. -

I'm concerned about being governed by a Cambridge-New Haven oligarchy, which is a problem outside SCOTUS, but expanding SCOTUS is one way to help. -

political power is a more legitimate argument that diversity? -

unfortunately, there are millions of people that watch FAUX News and are itching to shoot people taking the streets. Cannot be won on any single front. -

@mv in the spirit of small changes that can have a big impact - Golan v. Holder: Copyright in the Image of the First Amendment - http://legaltalkmedia.com/LTN/SUL/SUL_110911_Holder.mp3 -

unfortunately, you aren't in power, so you can't write a new constitution. We have to get assembly laws and such fixed before there can be any revolution, bloodless or otherwise. -

FDR was doing to get what he wanted. Actually, I don't want to give Obama all 6. 2 in 2013, 2 in 2021 and 2 in 2029. That way we ensure different presidents. We used to have 7 and I think 5 at one point too. # isn't in Constitution...so that's an easy fix. -

jabber should work, though I'm not enthusiastic about spending time lining up the two sides...though I think I know how I can improve my efficiency. -

we probably need to do 2 things with SCOTUS: 1) increase the # of people (probably to 15) 2) have some recusal guidelines. Right now if a Justice recusing themselves their "side" is at a significant disadvantage. If you increase the number, each Justice becomes less important. -

I guess this could be a topic for the show "Is SCOTUS truly accountable?" -
