What was the “clear and present danger” test, and who were the SUPREME COURT JUSTICES associated with it?
What was the “clear and present danger” test, and who were the Supreme Court
justices associated with it? Is it the law today?
Answer: Clear and present danger is a doctrine used to test whether limitations may be placed on First Amendment free speech rights. It was established in the case of Schenck v. United States, 249 U.S. 47 (1919). Charles Schenck, general secretary of the American Socialist Party was arrested and convicted for sending 15,000 anti-draft circulars through the mail to men scheduled to enter the military service. The circular called the draft law a violation of the 13th Amendment's prohibition of slavery. It went on to urge draftees not to "submit to intimidation," but to "petition for repeal" of the draft law.
The government accused Schenck of illegally interfering with military recruitment under the espionage act. Schenck admitted that he had sent the circulars, but argued that he had a right to do so under the First Amendment and was merely exercising his freedom of speech. Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes held that Mr. Schenck was not covered by the First Amendment since freedom of speech was not an absolute right. There were times, Holmes wrote, when the government could legally restrict speech. According to Justice Holmes, that test is "whether the words...are used in such circumstances as to create a clear and present danger."

If they were picked BECAUSE they were women and/or minorities, absolutely.

How can SUPREME COURT JUSTICES disagree?
I admit my knowledge of the legal system is very limited, but thats why Im asking this question. My understanding of the supreme court is that they are supposed to interpret the law/constitution.
I just dont understand how there can be a 5-4 decision; it seems completely arbitrary to me. Why dont they just call it something along the lines of a "hung judiciary?" It seems fairly obvious that either a) the justices arent doing their job properly or b) the law isnt covered by the constitution and any interpretation from the constitution is extremely stretched.
If b) is the case why dont we amend the constitution or do something. It just seems strange to me that such important decisions can be made by a swing vote. I guess maybe its better than how a new law would be passed. But is the reason we allow them to implement as low 5-4 decisions just because we dont have any better options?
Unrelated, but it also seems strange to me that every election we seem to elect a leader that nearly half the population dislikes. This system seems weird to me too. I guess I cant think of anything better, but it seems like somebody should be able to; unless everybody is just interested in maintaining the status quo.
Answer: Well the legal system used by the UK, America, Australia, HK and other former British colonies not only allows for this sort of thing, it encourages it.
Some legal systems, such as China and much of Europe codify the laws, so that there is a very specific set of rules.
But the American legal system works on the principle there is the written law then there is the interpretation of the law (eg case law).
Eg, if there is a law that says you can't use offensive language, then it is up to the judges to interpret the meaning of offensive. For example with the common use of the F word on TV and in movies many judges believe it is no longer offensive to use this word.
In addition there are often a range of laws that conflict. For there might be something in the constitution that protects freedom of speech and another law that stops you spreading lies. These two laws are in fact in conflict.
In addition, you are right, many aspects of the consitution are in fact written very generally. Eg, the right to bear arms. The wording of this ammendment is very ambigious. What is meant by "bearing arms". Does it mean the right to own them, or the right to carry them in schools (eg teachers in some states are allowed to go armed). It seems that the wording implies the right to bear arms is only associated with a militia, but the grammar allows anyone to bear arms.
Yes, constitutions and laws can be ammended and improved. But often laws are badly written. Attempts to make things too explicit often makes the laws inflexible allowing people to escape punishment because of the letter of the law, or people going to jail when they are really done nothing wrong.
Yes, the legal system seems very odd. But think about everybody who kicks out the British (the Chinese in HK, Ghandi in India and the US) all say take your pansy soccer football, your warm beer and you annoying accents and go home, but they keep the legal system.
This system is complex, but it works. It is flexible. Courts can react to things that are happenning in the world without waiting for governments to do anything.
These interpretations are done while listening to experts present their arguments.
These happen over legal issues that are not clear (which is why they get challenged all the way to the supreme court).
One problem is that the judges are political appointments. If there is a Republican president you get conservative judges, and now you are getting left wing judges. This is part of it as well.
Finally the alternative is to have a highly beauracratic process, where anonymous bueracrats make rules (eg, this is how tax law works).
Anyway, I don't know if this answers your questions or confuses you more. But yeah, a lot of what you say is right, but also this is a system that works effectively in most cases.

How can the people remove the SUPREME COURT JUSTICES that vote in favor of the government and not the people?
It appears we have in place Supreme court justices that feel a deeper obligation to the government than the people of this country and we should come together and rid ourselves of all these self serving thieves and liars we have in the courts and public offices.
Answer: You Can't.
You are stuck with the justice that is selected by the President and approved by the Congress.
Also- keep in mind-- for every Supreme Court decision you don't like - there is someone else who agrees with it.
Here is a list of current Supreme court justices and who appointed them:
John Paul Stevens - Ford
Antonin Scalia - Reagan
Anthony Kennedy- Reagan
David Souter - George HW Bush
Clarance Thomas- George HW Bush
Ruth Bader Ginsburg - Clinton
Stephen Breyer - Clinton
John Roberts Jr- George W Bush
Samuel Alito - George W Bush
As you can see - most of the supreme court is made up of Republican appointees. In the next 4 years, it is expected that several justices may retire. Keep this in mind when you vote. The next president will appoint the replacement. You may want to consider voting Demacrate to allow for some balance on the court. Because like to or not, Presidents appoint Justices who support their political positions. A diversified court is a good thing. It makes sure that both sides are considered in the decisions.

Answer: No. If the circumstances change, then it is the lawmakers responsibility to change the laws, not the courts. The laws are created for a reason, and how the law is written, and what the intent of the law was when written should be all that is considered.

How many SUPREME COURT JUSTICES will vote to listen to the Obama case?
Two cases are now pending in the Supreme Court, and one of them will be privately reviewed on December 5th. IF 4 justices vote to listen to the case, it will go into a full-fledged review.
So, how many justices do you believe will vote in favor of taking the case to a review?
Answer: If you let your little fingers do the walking, you can find the actual Supreme Court docket of pending cases:
http://search.access.gpo.gov/supreme-court/SearchRight.asp?ct=Supreme-Court-Dockets&q1=obama&x=28&y=24
Where you will discover first case 08A391, an application for an injunction, which was DENIED by Souter.
Also 08-570, where it says "response" due by December 1. The FEC et. al. waived their right to respond; in other words, "this is not worth our time."
And here are the cases due to be argued (Berg's case is nowhere to be found):

How many SUPREME COURT JUSTICES will President Obama have the opportunity to appoint?
A. Obama will have the chance to appoint two in his first term and two more in his second term if he is reelected.
B. Supreme court justices serve lifetime appointments, so it is impossible to know in advance how many vacancies any one president will get to fill.
C. Obama will be able to appoint a new justice for every member of the Court over the age of 65.
D. Obama will be able to replace as many justices as he chooses.
Answer: "B" is the correct answer (do your homework, this stuff is actually kind of important).
However Justice John Paul Stevens is like 90 years old and supposedly retiring, so it's safe to say Obama is on deck for at least one Supreme Court nomination in his first term.
There were rumors that Bill Clinton was going to get picked but he personally denied them and recommended a younger person be nominated.

How did the Republican Agenda, begun by the Nixon administration, affect the appointment of Supreme court justices in the 1970s? Did the appointments promote this agenda?
Answer: republicans attempted to appoint conservative judges, who would interpret the constitution in a strict manner. (democrats try to appoint liberal judges, who will be more activist in nature) a study of the judges appointed since FDR will show that a good portion of them have been a "disappointment" to the president and/or his party, as they have turned out to be more liberal (or at least less conservative) than wanted by the republicans, and more conservative than wanted by the democrats who appointed them
about the only thing that can be said for certain of the supreme court judges, whether that were appointed by a republican or democrat, is that they knew they could not be fired, and so they voted the way they wanted to vote, usually voting their conscience, no matter who put them on the bench

If so How? If not, Why?
Answer: I think that's in the constitution, & it's there for a reason. The reason is so that the judges are free from partisan politics. If they had to run for election/reelection, that would involve raising $$$, which means they would owe somebody. Being appointed once & serving until they retire means they are ( hopefully ) above politics & being influenced. Trying to keep them pure judges.
