On the upcoming Supreme Court nomination(s?), Discerning Texan writes:

Dear Mr. President:

Please, please nominate originalists to the court. It may be the most important thing you do in your entire Presidency. Don't cave in to these back-stabbers: if you have to go "nuclear", so be it. But this is too important. I know you know what the right thing is to do. And I have faith that you will do that right thing. Please don't let us down now.

You took an oath to "...preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution of the United States." If you really meant that, please stand up for what is right, rather than what is expedient. For this is the very reason you were destined to be President at this moment in history. God Bless.
