U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg lamented partisanship in Congress during a talk at Stanford University on Monday and said she hoped it would return to an era when "it was working for the good of the country and not just along party lines." Ginsburg recalled Monday that she received bipartisan support for her nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court, saying Republican Sen. Orrin Hatch was her most ardent supporter. The 83-year-old justice offered personal reflections at a discussion billed as an exploration of what it means to lead a meaningful life. Asked by a Stanford student who else should eat more kale in Washington, D.C., the justice quipped, "Justice Kennedy." Anthony Kennedy, 80, is the second oldest justice on the Supreme Court and is considered a swing vote.
