Join Supreme Court experts Jeffrey Rosen and Jan Crawford Greenburg for a revealing Citizens' Constitutional Conversation about the nation's highest court. Rosen, the legal affairs editor of The New Republic, is the author of The Supreme Court: The Personalities and Rivalries that Defined America. He discusses how personality and style mold decision making within the U.S. Supreme Court, almost as much as precedent and constitutional philosophy. Greenburg, author of the new book Supreme Conflict, is also an ABC News correspondent. She will take us inside the Court to tell the back story of the Rehnquist and Roberts courts. Program recorded on 2/13/2007. Questions or comments? Write programs@constitutioncenter.org
