Thurgood Marshall Was An Eloquent Speaker

[dalej42]

Here’s my thread about Thurgood Marshall and senility. I’d say the consensus is that he definitely declined.

Was Thurgood Marshall senile in his last few years on the Supreme Court?

I think Mr. Kennedy ducks the question by referring to the writings - as they couldn’t have been prepared without considerable help from the clerks. When the question is whether the clerks did most of the work or just a good bit of it (which is normal) merely pointing to the opinions themselves is the very definition of a non-answer. But then, that’s a lawyer for you.
