No, judges should not be elected because they would just become another part of the political system. The Senate confirmation process was fucked up by Harry Reid when he eliminated the filibuster for judicial appointments. The 60 vote majority in the Senate to bring about a confirmation vote on a court nominee helped to make sure nominees were acceptable to both parties. In order to get Obama's nominees confirmed Harry Reid nuked the judicial filibuster, and that shortsighted decision by slimy Harry allowed Donald Trump to make three Supreme Court appointments. I do agree that there need to be term limits for Supreme Court justices as well as for members of Congress.
