President Ron Paul’s Likely Supreme�Court�Nominations by Walter Block:

"My first nomination is of course Andrew Napolitano. As an ex judge, surely he has an inside track. I hesitate to mention him in this context because I see him more as a Vice Presidential candidate than a potential Supreme Court judge.

But, if Dr. Paul chooses someone else for that position, it is hard to imagine a better nomination than Andrew. There is also a sitting judge, U.S. Federal District Court of New Orleans, Martin Feldman, who is a personal friend of Judge Napolitano’s. Marty, who on October 12, 1983 was appointed United States District Judge for the Eastern District of Louisiana by President Reagan, is justly famous for lifting Pres. Obama’s deep water oil drilling ban in the Gulf Mexico.

One trouble with Judge Feldman for this purpose is that he is closer to the end of his career than to the beginning of it."
