While it's a question that has nothing to do with your studies, per se, it could have a lot to do with your future if you're planning to work in the legal profession. How will this election affect the law? I'd love to hear your thoughts.
There are the obvious connections - the President, with the advice and consent of the Senate appoints federal judges, including the Supreme Court.
But what about the more subtle ways? First, of course, there is all the electioneering - as I write this, it appears that we could be heading toward a legal battle to determine the results of the Senate election in Minnesota, for instance.
And then there is the fact that our President-Elect is a lawyer himself. What will his legal perspective do to change the law?
And then there is the economy, and how it affects lawyers. The legal job market has been very tight for the past year or so, due in large part to the economic changes. Will that change?
How do you think that elections will affect the law?
