The first female Supreme Court justice has revealed the plans for her upcoming education game project, Our Courts, meant to teach children how America’s courts operate and exactly how their future is determined by a hand-picked few.
Justice O’Connor (78) believes the only way to preserve an independent judiciary is through public education, which in the past has failed to properly educate citizens about the three branches of U.S. government (legislative, executive and judicial). She hopes that using new tools, such as Our Courts, to reach younger students will achieve this.
Justice O’Connor served as U.S. Supreme Court justice from 1981 until her retirement in 2006. (VIA Reuters)

I should say, as a lot as I enjoyed reading what you had to say, I couldnt support but lose interest after a although. Its as if you had a excellent grasp on the subject matter, but you forgot to contain your readers. Possibly you should consider this from far more than a single angle. Or maybe you shouldnt generalise so significantly. Its far better in the event you consider what others might have to say rather than just going for the gut reaction towards the subject. Consider adjusting your own thought method and giving other people who may well read this the benefit in the doubt.
