Good points above and don’t leave out the Dred Scott v. Sandford Supreme Court decision. Judges are very fallible. That is why confirmation demands due diligence and not just a rubber stamp because she is a double minority. That is a pathetic way to pick a justice.[/quote]
I agree that confirmation demands due diligence. But are you suggesting that her nomination was solely because she is female and latina? She has more bench experience than any nominee in the last 50 years.
