Answer:

The answer is D) court decisions can be reached without regard to political considerations

Explanation:

Federal judges are appointed so that court decisions can be reached without regard to political considerations. The Founding Fathers worried that federal judges might have their decision swayed based on their desire to be reelected rather than by facts and legal issues.
