US President Barack Obama has picked federal judge Sonia Sotomayor as his first Supreme Court Nominee. If approved by the Senate, Sotomayor would be the first hispanic judge to serve at that level. Supreme court appointments are among a president's largest influences upon domestic policy, as such appointments are for life.
A political moderate, Sotomayor became the first Hispanic federal judge in New York State, as well as the youngest judge in the Southern District of New York.
Baseball fans remember her for her ruling in the 1995 baseball strike that led to the cancellation of that year's World Series (she ruled on the players' side).
Sotomayor was first nominated to a federal bench by George HW Bush, and later to the federal appeals court by Bill Clinton.

Thanks for that good information
My initial impression is that she is a great choice. It will be hard to object to her.

Obama’s selection of Sotomayor is excellent.

INNUMERABLE OF THE WORST CASES OF RACIAL PREJUDICE IN WORLD HISTORY!
LONG LIVE PRESIDENT BARACK OBAMA!
Barack Obama is a racial minority and does not like racism.
WORLDWIDE DISSEMINATION OF INFORMATION RELATING TO SCANDALS:
(I) I do solemnly swear by Almighty God that George W. Bush committed atrocious, racist, hate crimes of epic proportions and with the stench of terrorism which I am not at liberty to mention. Many people know what Bush did. And many people will know what Bush did—even until the end of the world. Bush was absolute evil. Bush is now like a fugitive from justice. In any case, Bush will go down in history in infamy.
(II) It is opined that Bill Clinton committed terrifying, racist, hate crimes during his presidency, and I am not free to say anything further about it. ‘Be sure your sins will find you out’ (Numbers 32:23).
(III) What if basically all racial minority people would subscribe to the interpretations that George Herbert Walker Bush committed monstrous, racist, hate crimes while he was the President of the United States? It will eventually come out: it is only a matter of time.
(IV) I know it may be hard to believe. However, Ronald Wilson Reagan committed horrible, racist, hate crimes during his presidency.
