but i was glad to hear earlier that comment that we had too many judges from yale and harvard. there are outstanding law schools all over this country . some more so in certain fields and others but i've been shocked at just how few supreme court justices are considered that went to some other law school, no matter howbrilliant . i would love to see more diversity in that area. would you comment about that? >> as a graduate of harvard law school i can't say there are too many of us out there but i agree ulthat elite educational category is not necessarily the best determinant of what would make a good judge. i would love to see justice barrett bring directly to the court. it's not up to harvard or yale in terms of the number of judges that we have on those schools. so i was pleased to see her bring that diversity and i think it's a perfect example of how really you can find confidence, brilliant judges from any law school in the country. so the test shouldn't necessarily be did you go to harvard for gail. the test should be are you impartial? do you have the integrity? do you h
