When presidents appoint judges to the federal courts, judges go to the bench for a term of "good behavior" which means they can
marusya05 [52]

When the president appoints judges to serve in federal courts, they can remain on the bench for how long they wish. According to the "good behavior" principle, the only exception exists if a Congressional impeachment takes place (which is very rare). The lifetime appointment has its pros and cons:

<u>PROS</u>

  • Judges' decisions are free from political pressure since they're not worried about whether they'll be reelected.
  • The longer he/she spends on the bench allows them to develop a greater knowledge regarding the law and specific cases before them.      

<u>CONS</u>

  • Judges appointed for life might get comfortable and start creating their own laws from the bench.
  • These judges under lifetime appointment are often subjected to bribes (political favors) and corruption.

trapecia [35]

Answer:

Kamala Harris is the candidate for the vice presidency of the United States for the Democratic Party, sharing the formula with Joe Biden. In addition, she serves as a senator for the State of California, and previously was Attorney General of that state.

Ideologically, she considers herself a center-left Democrat, with an enormous sense of identification with the social, political and economic problems of the nation's minorities. In this sense, during her political career she has constantly worked to improve policy standards at the national level, with the aim of including racial and cultural minorities, and generating greater situations of equality for all Americans, both socially and economically.
