He should nominate Bill Clinton.

Clinton was disbarred, so I don't think he can ever be any type of judge. I might be incorrect on that though.

Uh, you don't even have to be a lawyer to be a federal judge. Thats just a tradition started by George Washington, not that anyone would think of breaking it.

Curiously enough all Supreme Court justices are admitted to the Supreme Court Bar, so you would automatically become a lawyer anyway (without ever having to study or pass an exam [img]/images/graemlins/laugh.gif[/img])
