Paul Martin Simon November 29 1928 - December 9 2003 was an American author and politician from Illinois. He served in the United States House of Representatives from 1975 to 1985 and in the United States Senate from 1985 to 1997. A member of the Democratic Party he unsuccessfully ran for the 1988 Democratic presidential nomination. After his political career he founded the Public Policy Institute at Southern Illinois University Carbondale in Carbondale Illinois which was later named for him. There he taught classes on politics history and journalism. In July 2005 the Paul Simon Historical Museum was opened in Troy Illinois where Simon lived for 25 years. It included the desk and camera from his days as at the Troy Tribune items from his presidential campaign and his lieutenant governor license plates. An insider's view of the Supreme Court appointment process chronicles the Senate's role in confirmation proceedings since the George Washington administration suggesting that the president discuss potential nominees with the Senate before submitting his final choice. With America suffering from the most mediocre court in history recent bloody confirmation battles in the Senate have confirmed one thing: the process has run amuck. Senator Simon a leading member of the Judiciary Committee provides an insider's viewpoint on the appointment process and reveals the maneuvering that goes on behind closed doors.
