A Judge is either appointed or voted in, and in some states both. A state judge gets his/her power from the governer of the state. or the people. A judge is not all that powerful if you think of it. He/she is only following and interpreting the laws that the people have set fourth through their legislature. A judge does not even enforce laws, that is done through the executive branch of Government. Our Government is based on the U.S. Constitution. Think about it, if we the people decided that the Democracy is not working out for us, in theory, we could change it because we the people give the Government its power; however this would be extreamly difficult and everyone would have to agree or at least the majority would in order to change out system to something we think would be better.
