Today’s been a hot bed of news for this nation. Our President has nominated federal appeals judge Sonia Sotomayor to become the nation’s first Hispanic Supreme Court justice. This is sooooo cool. Finally to have the possibility of two women again serving on the nation’s highest court (getting us closer to having women fill high positions.) And the fact that she’s Hispanic is also really cool. Her background of coming from poverty in Harlem to a federal appeals judge is what we’re taught is the American Dream. Hopefully her nomination will fly through without many problems. (And hopefully she’ll turn out to be a much more empathetic justice than some of the ones we have now!)
