Justice Ginsburg is a very competent justice, and it is a joy to have her on the court, but particularly for me it is a pleasure to have a second woman on the court.
My concern was whether I could do the job of a justice well enough to convince the nation that my appointment was the right move.
I'm not on the court anymore, so no use looking for my philosophy. If somebody's waiting for that, they can wait for another justice.
Each justice hires their own clerks, and applications are made individually to the justices. It isn't a group decision.
