Supreme possibilities of Justice Sotamayor
On the US Supreme Court
Nine justices serve
Their make decisions at the highest level,
That only an amendment to the constitution, or a future court decision can overturn.
Presidents nominate them for a lifetime appointment.
Congress and the senate vote to confirm “The Honor,"
Like in 1981 with the first female justice
Sandra Day O'Connor.
Supreme Court justices work hard and are driven to achieve more.
One example is justice Sonia Sotomayor.
Her life story’s unique
She calls it “My Beloved World.”
Even though she had a tough time when she was a young girl.
Her dad passed away at a young age,
She was diagnosed with childhood diabetes,
She had to learn a new language
Some things were not so easy.
Money was tight, housing projects inner-city,
But she would not be knocked down when she faced adversity.
She works to share her lessons
To be an Inspiration to kids
She finds time to give back
By going to events like Bronx children’s museum’s “Dream Big."
So when a case gets moved up from a lower court it can be a historic issue that needs a resolution...
And each justice makes a decision based on their interpretation of the Constitution...
They make judgements that are often split and they don't always agree.
But there's one judgement that's unanimous - to sit on this court - education is the key.
To unlocking the all important question of... What type of judge will you be?
