a start; let's expand
A '''Pro-Life Judge''' is one who has a presumption of a right to life for the unborn and other vulnerable members of society. The presumption can be rooted in the [[Declaration of Independence]] recognition of a right to "life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness." It can also be rooted in [[natural law]], the [[common law]] and the [[U.S. Constitution]].

Presumptions are widely recognized in the law on other issues, such as the presumption of "innocent until proven guilty" and presumptions about the burden of proof. A pro-life presumption carries with it a tendency to rule in favor of the unborn and against [[abortion]], and in favor of protecting other vulnerable aspects of innocent life against the State and more powerful adversaries.

A Pro-Life Judge would be willing to overturn ''[[Roe v. Wade]]'', while a mere [[originalist]] judge may resort to ''[[stare decisis]]'' to abide by that mistaken decision.
