Clinton: Nominating Obama For Supreme Court Is 'A Great Idea'

As President Barack Obama begins his last year in office , we can't help but wonder what he'll do next. Write another book? Go back to community organizing? 

An audience member at a Hillary Clinton campaign event had a unique suggestion: Supreme Court Justice. 

During a campaign rally in Iowa on Tuesday night, one man asked her if she'd consider appointing Obama.

Clinton was enthusiastic about the idea.

"Wow, what a great idea! Nobody has ever suggested that to me," she said. "Wow. I love that!"

"He may have a few other things to do," she added. "But, I'll tell you, that's a great idea."

None of the current justices have indicated that they'll retire anytime soon, but four years is a long time -- especially for Ruth Bader Ginsburg , who turns 83 in March.

Obama's resume actually makes him a pretty good fit for the position. He graduated from Harvard Law School, where he held the prestigious position of president of the Harvard Law Review . Later, he was an attorney on high-profile civil rights cases and taught constitutional law at the University of Chicago. 

Still, we have a feeling congressional Republicans would take issue with the choice...
