Yesterday, President Obama alongside Vice President Biden, announced Merrick Garland the Supreme Court nominee to replace Justice Antonin Scalia on the high court. As a true political junkie - the topic of the Supreme Court has always been at the forefront of my mind throughout this election season and I am glad that it is now receiving the proper attention. Furthermore, I hope the nomination process is able to play out as set forth in Article II, Section 2, Clause 2 of the United States Constitution the (Appointment Clause.)

Side Note: The Rose Garden was absolutely beautiful yesterday with the Cherry Blossoms in full bloom and the wonderful weather just made it a perfect day.
