Former Vice President Kamala Harris wants to expand the Supreme Court.  This is a seriously awful idea.  FDR, at the height of his popularity , after winning his first reelection, tried that – and got his head handed to him.  The reason for his effort, in 1937, to have as many as 15 justices was to overcome conservative opposition to his blizzard of New Deal programs.  HARRIS' 'NO BAD IDEA BRAINSTORM' FOR DEMS INCLUDES PACKING SCOTUS, ELIMINATING ELECTORAL COLLEGE Sound familiar?  Even some Democrats at the time thought this would fatally undermine the independence of the judiciary.  Congress refused to approve the bill, even though Roosevelt enjoyed a big Democratic majority.  HARRIS LABELED 'INSTITUTIONAL ARSONIST' FOR PLAN TO FUNDAMENTALLY TRANSFORM SCOTUS AND ELECTORAL COLLEGE But the high court, perhaps under pressure, then did start upholding major New Deal programs launched after the Great Depression.  Harris said she wanted to "invite ideas," suc...
