The 1996-97 Supreme court term

Cover Story | A preview of several key cases

A court after his own image

Cover Story | Presidents come, presidents go. But a president's legacy lives on through his appointments to the federal courts. So far, Mr. Clinton's legacy is a judiciary firmly committed to legalized abortion; by the end of a second term, almost half the entire federal bench could be made up of Clinton appointees. Though some say there is not a dime's worth of difference between the parties, there is a gold-mine gap between President Clinton's stated views and the rulings of his activist judges.

In this issue: "Tipping the Scales," Oct. 5, 1996
