Jonathan Bourne expresses criticism towards Theodore Roosevelt and Woodrow Wilson over their disapproval of recalling elected judges. Roosevelt and Wilson fear if judges are able to be recalled, their opinions will be influenced by political interests, but Bourne argues that judges are already politically motivated to rule a certain way because of renominations and promotions.
