Clearly, you do not understand what "Law Review" is or how it works.

And law students are prohibited from having their work appear in the review?

Law students simply do not have "articles" appear in Law Review.

>>> Oh, I was asking you as my posts simply contains questions to you, no declarative statements. N.B. the question marks in my posts.

The question was rhetorical because Obama hadn't appointed anyone to his cabinet...my query to you was "how do you know what Obama intends to do?"

>>> I would be feeling beyond ridiculous and totally duped having eliminated a presidential candidate from my consideration based on McCain/Palin's unsupported rantings of domestic terrorism when Obama does not appoint Ayers to his Cabinet.

And so you should...by Obama...because McCain's points were all well supported. It might, however, have behooved you to have listened to them because then you wouldn't be feeling beyond ridiculous when you learn that McCain never accused Obama of terrorism or claimed that Ayres represented a current threat from terrorism.

>>> And completely bamboozled if Obama can't find a single place among the vast 5,000 job openings. Surely, that could never ensue....unless McCain/Palin were lying to the fringe. Oh, that's simply not possible. ;) I'd personally be an idiot if I had based my vote on McCain/Palin's outright lies. Thank goodness I didn't do that.

Unfortunately, you based your vote on Obama's lies. Say, you weren't approached outside your voting center by a Zogby representative, were you?

>>> I do hope for the sake of the fringe who eagerly devoured McCain/Palin's delicious Kool-Aid that Obama finds a place for Ayers somewhere, somehow in the Administration. Gosh, there's the Cabinet and then 5, 000 other job openings for Obama to appoint Ayers and carry out Obama's and/or Ayers evil agenda. How could Obama not with such a close acquaintance to Ayers and his causes, right? ;)

I hope he appoints Ayres too...but we all know how quickly and easily Obama will throw his friends and family under the bus when he finds it politically expedient. Poor Rev. Wright still has the tread marks on his shirt.

But Sandy, there is a big difference between McCain's relationship with Ketting, who was doing something illegal during their relationship while McCain was doing something unethical - family vacations etc. and Obama who had a professional relationship with Ayers who was not doing anything illegal, although he had in the very far past well before Obama meet or knew him.

So, in general terms, forget about the actual people involved for a minute, which is worse?

1) Having a relationship with someone while they are doing something illegal and while you are doing something unethical with them or

2) Having a professional relationship with someone who had (or may have) done something illegal several decades before you knew them, but was currently working in a professional capacity at a large university?

See I have more trouble with the first, if we are going to address character, then the second. Yes, I accept that McCain learned his lesson - but what he did was wrong. What 'wrong' has Obama done other than not address the issue of a relationship to your satisfaction? What ethics charges could possibly be leveled over that working professional relationship? Are there any ethical violations even hinted at? No.

The "President" I was referring to was the "president" of the Law Review. But that aside, how common is it for editors and Presidents of Law Reviews to NOT have ANY published works?

Well for me, I don't think it is just Ayers.

Sorry, but you said you didn't want to debate this with me.
