Abstract
We first describe an observation based on an analysis of data regarding the outcomes of decisions in cases considered by the United States Supreme Court. Based on this observation, we propose a simple model aiming toward producing an objective notion of an ideology index. As an initial step in justifying this concept we produce explicit formulas for the highest-energy eigenvectors of reversible Markov chains with rank-2 transition matrices.
