jackson center that your question brings to mind the remarkable concurring opinion of justice jackson in the fabled steel seizure case and in his concurring opinion he reflected and meditated on the nature of our separation of power system, particularly in the context of presidential power. and i think that is a way to sort of reflect on the relationship which is obviously special, and i think it's fair to say it's a unique relationship between an article ii officer who ever's occupying the office of the solicitor general and all of those who serve under her leadership and in the article iii judiciary but, obviously, particularly the supreme court of the united states. and one way to think about it perhaps at an overly high level of abstraction is that there's a conversation that's continually underway. and the advantage that having a single officer, the office of solicitor general, sort of in charge of the executive branch's part of the conversation is that the solicitor general has very elaborate ways developed over time, extraordinarily efficient, of inviting different people into
