Welcome to the Supreme Court Project, which will harness the power of this collaborative site to analyze and explain the U.S. Supreme Court, its significance, its direction, and suggest legal approaches for change.
This page is for brainstorming on how to proceed with this project. Areas of interest are:
- precedents overturned by the Roberts Court
- recent decisions
- cases being appealed to the Court
- philosophies of the Justices
- prior decisions that can be overturned
- religion
- abortion
- private property
- Second Amendment
- evolution
- law enforcement
- pornography
- taxation
- sovereignty

Current Justices
- Chief Justice John Roberts (since October 2005)
- Justice John Paul Stevens
- Justice Antonin Scalia
- Justice Anthony Kennedy
- Justice David Souter
- Justice Clarence Thomas

Issues where the Court now has 5 votes, with the replacement by Justice Alito of Justice O'Connor's seat, to overturn liberal precedents:

- affirmative action
- campaign finance
- Establishment Clause
