Nah, Obama would be a terrible choice. Teaching law for a couple of years is hardly sufficient qualification. The one president that became a Supreme Court justice was Taft. Before his presidency, he was Solicitor General and a federal appeals court judge. After his presidency, he became president of the American Bar Association and taught law at an Ivy League school.
I like Obama, but he's less qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice than Harriet Meyers was.
