OVERTURN A PRESIDENTIAL APPOINTMENT?


Is it possible for a Solicitor General to propose to overturn a presidential appointment of the Supreme Court Chief Justice and for that proposal to be approved by a handful of justices? 

So where does power rest now, is it in the president, or the Solicitor General? 

Unfortunately, Folks, the Constitution is very explicit on how to remove a Chief Justice, but will the justices who voted for CJ removal obey that if pressured by the Senate and other sectors of society? 

The way we experience democratic processes now, if they hew closely to how it is defined, will determine our future actions on issues that will have a bearing on our status as a democratic nation.
