Important comoonts, and i have taken this on to try to understand as much as i can about judge gorsuch, to understand the dynamics of what his membership of the Supreme Court would mean because i recognize its not just an appointment for this term of congress. This is a lifetime appointment and it is very possible that he, if confirmed, will serve on the Supreme Court for a generation. So his impact on the white house of the Supreme Court is something that is extremely important to each member of the senate. I think many of us are looking for an associate justice who can bring about more consensus on the Supreme Court, who can try to deal with some of the great divisions of our nation in a way representing the values of our constitution that will allow our nation to move forward in a united way. We also recognize that the senate must give an independent evaluation of a Supreme Court justice. This is not because a president of your party nominated someone to the Supreme Court, whether y

Senators graham and carton, as well as congressman smith and the congresswoman. Probably about an hour and a half talking about issues from budget to peacekeeping issues as well as conflict and syria and iran. A healthy discussion. We came over to the white house and the president greeted all the members, had his picture taken with them, and we all sat down for lunch. It was an open dialogue, the members wanting to hear from the president what his plans are, what he will continue to do on syria or not continue to do with north korea, and all of those issues are at the forefront.
