JUSTICE

"I believe that the speeches that have been made recently by Chief Justice Burger are good indications that substantive reorganization is necessary. To the extent that it was appropriate, I would work closely with him and the other federal judicial leaders of the country in seeking far quicker trials, assured justice for equitable sentences, and a fair treatment of our people within the criminal justice system, without respect to wealth or social prestige or influence."

JUSTICE

"Reinhold Neibuhr, my favorite theologian, said that the purpose of politics is to establish justice in a sinful world. The definition of justice is to eliminate discrimination."
