Question 1: The report did not give that information. There are many AA and other minority judges out there. The question is was their ideology like that of the President? or did he care not to appoint them even if they shared the same ideology? If the latter is the case, why not? was it not popular at the time?
Question 2: You tell me. I'm speaking about Reagan and the all of the 'black" leaders and their careers he's supposedly responsible for (that someone mentioned in this thread).
It wasn't until Clinton's tenure that MORE minorities were appointed to cabinet-level positions.
Obiviously, his lack of inclusiveness is apparent. If it were not apparent, this discussion and many discussions like this would not take place as his legacy is being reviewed and discussed.
