    who says there needs to be 3 branches? add a 4th… having a partisan DOJ makes the judicial basically powerless

      Personally, I think that America should be split into four regions, each with their own congress, president, and judiciary. The supreme court can have each region submit four of their retired regional judges apiece to serve the nation as a whole. Plus another five judges, each chosen by a regional president, and a figurehead president who was elected by the other presidents. Toss in term and age limits, to make sure that they are swapped with fresh minds relatively often.

      21 national justices, with a lot more checks and balances.
