To the opening poster: How does the president of the US pressure the US Supreme Court? It cannot be done. Why can you not understand that (a) the Supreme Court justices are independent of the executive branch of government, they are appointed for life, can be removed only for high crimes and misdemeanors, e.g., accepting bribes, and (b) sometimes intelligent people (such as you, me and the justices of the Supreme Court) can in good faith see things differently. A majority of the court (4 appointed by Democratic president, one appointed by a Republican president) found the Affordable Care Act (sometimes called “Obamacare”) constitutional. Get over it.
