There has never yet been a Hindu on the bench. Or a Buddhist. Much less a Pagan.
Well, maybe it's time that there was.
Come on, President Obama: among the ranks of the qualified, there must be some non-Abrahamic candidates available. Think of it as affirmative action.
You can do this.
You should do this.
Yes you can.
