Diversity in the Supreme Court

Everyone talks about diversifying the Supreme Court and now the time has come. Souter is leaving soon and then that will leave the court with five Catholics and two Jews. This will be a seriously bias Supreme Court and hopefully Obama will do something about it. There are other ways for President Obama to make the current court, one of the most homogenous in history in terms of education and experience, look more like America. All of the Supreme Court Justices went to private colleges. Obama could nominate someone that graduated from a public school because 75% of citizens in the United States graduate from public institutions. I think that we need more diversity in the court. Possibly another black? Or maybe even a Hispanic? Knowing Obama he will try his hardest to diversify the Supreme Court but still pick a worthy candidate.
