Who is the only female Supreme Court justice?
Elena Kagan was sworn in on August 7, 2010.Kagan is the Court's 112th justice and its fourth female justice. She is the only member of the current court with no judicial experience; however, she is an expert on Constitutional Law.
Is Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan married?
Elena Kagan's sexual orientation has been a topic of much debate and little factual information. Harvard Law Review named Kagan as a lesbian, but she has never made a public statement about her status, nor has her private life been open to scrutiny.In a May 11, 2010 interview in Politico, Kagan's former law school roommate, Sarah Walzer, told journalist Ben Smith that Kagan is definitely a heterosexual. According to Walzer, "I've known her for most of her adult life and I know she's straight.... She's dated men when we were in law school, we talked about men - who in our class was cute, who she would like to date, all of those things. She definitely dated when she was in DC after law school, when she was in Chicago - and she just didn't find the right person."Other friends and classmates confirmed Walzer's testimony.Apparently, rumors about Kagan's sexual orientation had been circulating on gay blogs for months before a conservative CBS News site blogger reported the information as fact.While those familiar with the Supreme Court nominee's personal life have been emphatic about Kagan's sexual orientation, they have also expressed concern about offending gay friends by implying there is anything wrong with being a lesbian. Either way, Kagan's private life and orientation are irrelevant to her ability to perform as Solicitor General or as a Supreme Court justice.See Related Links, below.
Did Elena Kagan help write the health care bill?
While many people contributed, there is no evidence Justice Kagan did. She is a former law professor and former college dean, and while President Obama respects her knowledge, it is doubtful she wrote anything related to the Affordable Care Act; this is especially true since she became U.S. Solicitor General and then a Supreme Court Justice.

Who could be appointed to the US Supreme Court?
Technically and constitutionally, anyone the President nominates who is approved by the Senate. There are no written qualifications for US Supreme Court justices. Practically speaking, the choices are likely to be limited to licensed attorneys with a strong understanding of constitutional law, an Ivy League law degree, and an impressive legal history. All the justices on the Court as of May 2010 have appellate judicial experience; however, this is not a necessity. President Obama recently nominated Elena Kagan, US Solicitor General, to succeed Justice John Paul Stevens. Kagan was formerly Dean of Harvard Law School, but has never been a judge.
