13. that was a killer

I think he would have been a pretty good president, but the biggest loss was that George W Bush appointed John Roberts to the SCotUS in 2005 and Samuel Alito in 2006.

Just imagine those two replaced with a younger Sonia Sotomayor and Jennifer Granholm or similar instead. No citizens united
