Good article on the front page of the NYT today which gives quite a bit of insight into Obama's opinion of the judiciary. Obama's felt for some time that real power lay in the legislative and executive branches - which was why he went into politics rather than the law. As a professor at University of Chicago Law School he would routinely poke holes in the arguments of conservative and liberal justices alike. He would stress to his students that the Supreme Court was not something to be in awe of.
