 | | In 1816, Taney was elected to the Maryland Senate, and in 1827 Attorney-General of Maryland. |  | | Keys sister was the wife of Judge Nicholson, Chief Justice of the Baltimore Court, and one of the Judges of the Court of Appeals of Maryland. |  | | From the organization of the Supreme Court, its incumbents were punctiliously and critically chosen, not primarily because of their knowledge of law, but with the certain anticipation that they would apply law in consonance with the creed and interests of the divisions of the class from which their appointments came. |

| | Slashing Congressional Spending, Part I: Congressional Pay, Pensions, Perks, and Staff |
 | | Public outrage at an overstaffed, overpaid, and oversupplied-with-perquisites Congress forced majority Democrats in the 103rd Congress and majority Republicans in the 104th to respond in varying degrees to calls for cuts. |  | | When Congress passed its first pay raise in 1816, furious voters replaced nearly two-thirds of the House of Representatives -- a turnover rate unsurpassed until the controversies over slavery that led eventually to the War Between the States. |  | | Although some Congressmen argue that their districts need regular mass mailings to be informed about what is happening in Washington, it is difficult to argue that the government should provide news services or that Members of Congress are politically neutral sources. |

 | | In 1816 Thomas Jefferson said, "The true foundation of republican government is the equal right of every citizen in his person and property and in their management." |  | | The U.S. Supreme Court, by its 5-4 decision in Kelo, struck a major blow to Jefferson's vision of private property. |  | | I wonder if the Supreme Court's ruling means that governments can use eminent domain to get back at critics or if incumbents might use it to interfere with competitors for public office. |

| | U.S. presidential election, 1992 - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | The U.S. presidential election of 1992 featured a three-way battle between Republican George Bush, the incumbent President; Democrat Bill Clinton, the governor of Arkansas; and independent candidate Ross Perot, a Texas businessman. |  | | Clinton successfully capitalized on these weaknesses by running as a centrist New Democrat and won the presidency. |  | | Every U.S. presidential election campaign is an amalgam of issues, images and personality; and despite the intense focus on the country's economic future, the 1992 contest was no exception. |
