This is how Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg welcomed Justice Neil Gorsuch to the Supreme Court
About a quarter-century earlier, a young Gorsuch was a clerk splitting his time between Justice Byron White, who had hired him but retired, and Justice Anthony Kennedy.White tasked Gorsuch with organizing the so-called clerk manual, a set of notes meant to guide law clerks as to their responsibilities. White wanted to pass on the binder to his successor, Ruth Bader Ginsburg, in case she might find it helpful as she organized her chambers.
"Originalism says simply that the words on the page that were written and ratified by the people cannot be changed," he said."The Court can't change them -- you can change them through the Amendments if you want, and there have been 27 of them in our history."Ginsburg sees things very differently."Think how things were in 1787," Ginsburg said to a gathered crowd of about 10,000 people in Little Rock, Arkansas, last week.
