Biden In 1992 - No Nominee Until After Election

President Obama is weighing the selection of Brian Sandoval, a centrist former federal judge who has served as governor since 2011, according to two people familiar with the process. Though the review process is in its initial phases and it is unclear whether the governor could ultimately emerge as the president’s pick, even the prospect of his nomination poses a difficult dilemma for Senate Republicans who have promised not to consider any nomination before November’s elections.

centrist is just another way of saying a just left enough to vote with the liberals on a regular basis..

Anthony McLeod Kennedy (born July 23, 1936) is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States who was nominated by President Ronald Reagan on November 11, 1987, and took the oath of office on February 18, 1988.

Kennedy became the most senior Associate Justice on the court following the death of Antonin Scalia in February 2016. Since the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor in 2006, he has been the swing vote on many of the Court's 5–4 decisions.[1][2][3][4] He has authored the majority ruling in many of these cases.

the Republicans over the years have went for a centrist to get nominees through.. and that compromise has led US to the brink of losing our rights.

the source being the extreme far left mother jones says it all.... I would draw the line between Alito and Roberts as to who was right or left.. leaving Roberts as a centrist.. not Kennedy.. I hope the next few picks are solid Constitutionalists.

If we have a conservative president and republican senate - I'd like all old conservative justices to accept retirement for the good of the country. Replacing them with conservatives that might sit for 40 more years.

Clarence Thomas, 6/23/1948, Age: 67 yr 8 mo, is then the oldest.
