It doesn't, but here's the rub. If Obama wants to appoint strict Constitutionalist justices, he would have said so. Everyone states how intelligent the man is, yes? If that's true, would he have not said so? If one "reads between the lines" what he's implying is that he wants justices appointed that will lean in favor of who he deems as "disadvantaged". IMO, Obama is not looking for constitutionalst...He's looking for justices that will base their interpretations and subsequent rulings, not upon constitutional law, but upon how they "feel"
