Am I the only one who has realized that the Supreme Court is just nine judges without a jury? But it took years before I realized it.

From the American Bar Association:
PART I. BASIC DUTIES
6–1.1 General responsibility of the trial judge 6–1.2 Community relations 6–1.3 Adherence to standards 6–1.4 Appearance, demeanor and statements of the judge 6–1.5 Obligation to use court time effectively and fairly 6–1.6 Duty to maintain impartiality 6–1.7 Judge’s duty concerning record of judicial proceedings 6–1.8 Proceedings in the courtroom 6–1.9 Obligation to perform and circumstances requiring recusal 6–1.10 Issuance or review of warrants or other ex parte orders 6–1.

It could not be clearer, could it?

This makes the role of the Supreme Court as it is today null and void! Especially because they are appointed by a succession of presidents. This also makes all decisions by the Supreme Court null and void. How strange that the American Bar Association has not figured this out.

(Let me clarify that the Constitution can be corrected through an Article V convention of the states.)
