Why did you want to be a judge?

Well, it's something I have felt a calling for.

Certainly, being a lawyer for over 19 years now, I've learned the importance of We need attorneys that remember what it's like to be people.

So many attorneys, the people that get a lot of times appointed to be a judge are straight from a government position or straight from a quasi-government organization.

They forget what it's like to be normal attorneys that represent normal people in court.

And so one of the most important things that I have found in my desire is I want to bring that to the bench.

I want to bring the fact that I remember what it's like to be a poor, broke college student.

And correct me if I'm wrong, but that's the way it should be, Charles.
