I think Emsworth is. He has a hell of a lot more legal knowledge than she has shown.

I like Emsworth, but Miers is more qualified.

That is true, but I would give Emsworth the slight edge.

I'm sure Emsworth is more qualified than Mier's was at 12 or whatever his age is.

Miers. She's an American citizen (I think that's a requirement?)

If not... Wink

No; there aren't any constitutional requirements at all. Smiley

Miers, of course, is much more qualified, whatever the criteria may be (whether legal experience, education, or anything else).

Miers is more qualified now, having graduated from Law School and done al that she's done.

I have no doubt that when Emsworth is 60 (or 40 for that matter) he will have surpassed Miers' qualifications.

putting Harriet Meirs on Supreme Court is about as qualified as putting Q on the Supreme Court when he was SE lottery comissioner.
