Is it appropriate for US Supreme Court justices to be active in the selection of new justices?
It's as appropriate for US Supreme Court justices to suggest potential candidates as it is for any other group, assuming they don't exercise undue influence over the nomination. It is both inappropriate and unconstitutional for them to take an active or official role in the appointment process (and they don't).

Why are viewpoints of judicial restraint and judicial activism as well as originalist and active liberty philosophies particularly crucial in supreme court justices?
Viewpoints of judicial restraint and judicial activism, along with originalist and active liberty philosophies, are crucial for Supreme Court justices as they shape how the Constitution is interpreted and applied in contemporary cases. Judicial restraint emphasizes the limited role of the judiciary, advocating for deference to legislative decisions, while judicial activism supports a more dynamic interpretation that can adapt to social changes. Originalism focuses on understanding the Constitution based on its original meaning, while active liberty promotes a living interpretation that emphasizes individual rights and democratic participation. These philosophies influence landmark rulings and ultimately affect the balance of power within government and the protection of civil liberties.
