Be constitutionally correct, make it the law.

Why Is This Idea Important?: To be constitutionally compliant the three barnches of government are to be kept seperate.

Card carrying members of the judicial branch (Lawyers) are in all other branches of government. The three branches of government are to be kept seperate "constitutionally" so why are they there?

    To be specific, only the lawyers who are bar members need to be excluded from the other two branches. In the rest of the English speaking world, these are called barristers. When this country was founded, it was possible to be a lawyer without being a bar member, which was called a solicitor. That is why we still have a solicitor general in DC, and city solicitors in the eastern states: these titles are explicit that they're NOT to be bar members - who are to practice law in the courtroom only as officers of the court, and are not to solicit business from the general public directly, but only via solicitors. This has the fringe benefit of reducing conflict of interests.
