Monday’s expected confirmation of Robert Wilkins to the D.C. Circuit Court will be the latest judicial win for the White House — not just because he’s the third of the three nominees the president announced in June to increase pressure on Senate Republicans, but because he’s the 41st African-American Obama’s gotten confirmed for the bench.President Barack Obama has talked a lot about increasing diversity on the bench. A year ago, shortly after Obama’s second inauguration and fresh on the job himself as the new chief of staff, Denis McDonough decided to actually make it a West Wing priority.
now if they want to contest these appt's or question motive they should look at fact that it's the 41st African American appointed meaning that all these years and justices only 41 but maybe that is their real beef so many Black Progressive judges hopefully it puts a damper on their privatized prisons.
you can say what you want about what they call his failures in reality they are his blocked efforts by them.
The White House is eager to talk about its record of success, despite its complaints about long waits on confirmations that led Democrats to the nuclear option in the Senate. Obama has nominated, and the Senate has confirmed, more women, more African-Americans, more Latinos, more Asians and more openly gay judges than any previous president.
that whole paragraph of nominees are not just denying him they are also Americans that republicans would never dream of nominating. they are fighting against America and Americans. 2014 recognize
