A Court Supreme: The Not-So-Endearing Legacy of Justice Antonin ScaliaThe Un-Democratic Party Helps Hillary Win Without Actually WinningDr.
Gerald Horne, the John J. and Rebecca Moores chair of history and
African American studies at the University of Houston and frequent
analyst of world affairs on Leid Stories, discusses the enduring impact
of Justice Antonin Scalia on the U.S. Supreme Court, decisions that
reflect both its politicization and rightward shift in recent decades,
and whether President Obama’s nominee to replace Scalia could
substantially change the tenor and direction of the court. Bernie
Sanders’ underdog campaign almost torpedoed Hillary Clinton in Iowa,
and she definitely “felt the Bern” in New Hampshire with Sanders’
double-digit victory margin. Yet she’s winning. Big. Leid Stories
explains how the Democratic Party’s rigged delegate system could cause
Sanders to lose the party’s nomination, even if he wins in the
primaries.
