Watch Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg give a perfect response to the question, 'How many women on the Supreme Court are enough?'
Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg spoke to students at Georgetown University earlier this week, and when the discussion turned to the role of women in law, Ginsburg brought up the fact that people ask her all the time: How many women on the Supreme Court are enough?
"My answer is, when there are nine," Ginsburg says, grinning.
You can watch more of her comments in the video, courtesy of PBS, below. Her recollections of women fighting to be welcomed into the legal profession are interesting and important, to be sure, but stick around until the end to find out what one great talent Ginsburg wishes she had. —Sarah Eberspacher
