during more than 30 years on the supreme court, justice kennedy was the most pro free speech justice. he voted against the government in nearly three-quarters of the free speech cases. the flag protects those who hold it in contempt. why did justice kennedy believe that that flag, the majestic flag flying over us now protects those who hold it in contempt? because of his profound commitment to limited government, respect for the individual and tolerance of diverse view points. that leads to justice kennedy's third contribution to american life. his insistence on equal liberty and dignity for all individuals. although he believed that cultivating reason is a moral duty, he believes that the equal liberty protected by the constitution means that moral disapproval of individuals or animus or d on prejudice has no place in the law. he has written moral disapproval of a group like a bare desire to harm a group is an interest that is insufficient to satisfy the equal protection clause. that's from lawrence versus texas. in a 2003 speech justice contendy declared that liberty means the right

justices. and supreme court. we have two great supreme court justices, right? right to justices of the supreme court they are great men. and how about the pain that they put justice kavanaugh through. [booing] over a phony deal i hate to tell you. over a phony deal. what a disgrace, what they put that man in that family through. just remember it come november. you've got to remember. it's a long time. in the life of trump, ten months is an attorney. somebody said congratulations sir and i said don't say that. just don't talk about it. let's always pretend you're one point down. like last time. it'll be close, nope it's can be close. but what they put that man through his horrible. what they put his family through his horrible. and you know, those stories largely have been recanted and those that haven't, i don't know what a supreme court judge, said but he should sue them. he should sue them. so, we want to take back the house, will hold the senate, and will keep the white house. you will have the greatest health care, you will continue with the greatest judges.

first there is a supreme court lottery under this reform every judge on the federal court of appeals would be appointed as a associate justiceof the supreme court. the supreme court word here cases of a panel of nine randomly selected and then you say bylaw h panel panel would be prohibitive from having more than five justices nominated by a single political party: no more than five republicans or democrats out of time and the second is the balanced bench and this is the proposal that pete buttigieg has endorsed and you would start with 10 justices fully affiliated with the democratic party and pie with the republican party. 10 person affiliated justices would have to select an additional five judges unanimously two years in advance for a one-year term. powerful, creative and not easy to get through congress, obviously to put it mildly, so is it fair to say that convention may be the sure store most possible way of achieving these are forms and what do you think of the idea of an article five convention to achieve the reforms you advocate? >> with respect to these reforms in particular i think the clear what we were trying t

appointed to the supreme court, justice neil gorsuch and brett kavanaughthey join three other justices in the supreme court who all declared themselves, consider themselves to be constitutionalists. what that really means is they believe the constitution, the structure at least, should be preserved at all costs. approach theas we next couple years when cases will start to come to the court where the issue of nondelegation can be considered by justices, i think we have a good shot here that the nondelegation doctrine will be restored. what does that do? forces congress, if a law is declared invalid because it is delegating authority to the executive branch, it forces congress to go back and reconsider that law and make the big decisions in that law itself. that is what this book is about. thank you, peter. >> i want you to get your point and. opening remarks. -- your point in. >> that is a good segue. i want to talk about two cases of the past term of the supreme court that show both sides of the same coin and the pushback against the administrative state.
