Ginsberg: I'll be a SCOTUS justice for as long as I can

Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg revealed on Friday that she does not plan on retiring anytime soon.
"My answer is as long as I can do the job full steam, I will do it," Ginsberg said, receiving applause at an Equal Justice Works event.
"I used to have an answer, it worked for a lot of years. It was Justice Braindeis, when he was appointed he was the same age as I was, 60. And he stayed for 23 years, so I expect to stay at least as long. Well, now I've passed Brandeis, I've passed Frankfurter," she said.
Ginsberg, 84, has served on the Supreme Court for 24 years.
