The passing of Justice Scalia has left a sad void on our Nation's highest court.
There are many people that wish for the President to appoint a "progressive" judge to the court, but nothing could do more for cohesion and respect to the American people than replacing Justice Scalia with someone of his same Judicial ideology. That person should be Senator Ted Cruz.
Let it be known that nominating Senator Cruz is NOT a political calculation to derail his candidacy for President of the USA; rather, he is the MOST suitable person to replace the Justice Scalia.
Senator Cruz has an Ivy legal education and has an extensive legal career clerking for the Supreme Court among other things. He is Hispanic, adding diversity. He is Protestant, adding diversity. Again, his ideology is that of Scalia
