Well, just what in the hell is so hard for them to appoint an African-American to high positions?

Where is *their* Condaleeza Rice or Colin Powell?

The entire Democratic Party is a sham, that's why.

A chronic problem of the Dems. When convicted felon Illinois Dem Gov Kerner produced the KERNER REPORT he was asked why he had no Blacks in his cabinet. Kerner answered that there were no qualified Blacks. Of course qualifications had not been a problem when he appointed the illiterate in laws of White Chicago Ward Bosses to high positions.

Republican Ogilvie came in days later and immediately appointed Black Republican Bill Robinson, not only because Robinson was qualified, but because he was the brains behind the Ogilvie rise to power and held a big IOU on Ogilvie.

It's all about quotas with the scumocrat party. Clinton's powerful buddies and big donors got all the good jobs, "minorities" got all the 2nd tier positions to ensure "diversity".

Excellent points, DCPatriot. Moreover, Condoleeza Rice and Colin Powell are there because they are eminently qualified, not as tokens. It's hard for the Demo leaders to appoint African-Americans because they don't want to give up any power themselves.
