He in turn appointed me as an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court because of my experience working in the courts in the United States, my long and continuing involvement in the party, and my desire to help the middle and working classes.
I expected to be named Chief Justice, but that position was given to colleague of mine, Humberto Menéndez, who had been involved with the party since its inception and had had experience with the Esperanzan Supreme Court.
I disagreed with a lot of the policies, as did some fellow justices of mine who were able to preserve their positions in the same manner I did, but I stayed on the bench in hopes of affirming any land reform legislation that came the Court’s way.

 The Jaded JD: NARAL WINS! President Withdraws Roberts's Nomination as Associate Justice!!*   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-19)
The AP reports that the president has announced his intention to withdraw the nomination of Judge John G. Roberts, Jr., for Associate Justice of the Supreme Court in order to renominate Judge Roberts for Chief Justice of the United States.
This means, naturally, that 67-year old Justice Stephen G. Breyer will continue to answer the phone and the door when the Conference meets, and that, rather than having last pick of chambers when he is confirmed (by virtue of lowest seniority), Chief Justice Roberts will have first pick of chambers.
I suspect Justice Breyer's knees and Chief Justice Roberts's prospective chambers are really the most significant changes to arise out of the nomination swap.
