RELEVANT JOB DUTIES
As Assistant to the President of the United States, and as a female, my current job entails many duties that will help me in a position at the Supreme Court, such as resolving disputes. For example, while planning the last Capitol Hill softball outing, I discovered the Republicans wanted to have barbecue and the Democrats wanted vegetarian. Thinking quickly, I called Pizzeria Uno and order a variety of their delicious deep dish pies which were a big hit with everybody. I think this goes to show that I am a real "people person" with the feminine touch to get the job done, consensus-wise.

RELEVANT DUTIES
In my capacity as female Chairperson of the Texas Lottery Commission, I also experienced many, many experiences and tough choices that will be relevant to being a female on the US Supreme Court. For example, in 1997 a woman from Tyler sued us for a share of the Texas Big Game jackpot because she forgot to buy her regular favorite combo ticket (11-17-22-26-41, Powerball 43), the week it came up a winner. At my trial testimony I explained to the judge, woman-to-woman, that Texas Lottery advertising precedent was clear: "If You Don't Play, You Can't Win!" My dramatic testimony led to a bench aquittal and earned me the prestigious "Annual Award of Excellence" from the Chairperson of the Texas Lottery.
