I tend towards political observer, rather than political activist. Whatever happens in politics, white male lawyers (which I hope to end up as) tend to do pretty well. I'm also skeptical of my impact on any of these movements, on how effective I can be at "fighting" it.

Not that I'm indifferent to causes I like. I'm spending much of this summer doing appellate work for indigent clients. I'm just disenchanted with the political process in general. Guess that's why I'm not so annoyed by "activist" judges. *shrug*
