A letter to today's issue of the Star-Tribune addresses' President Obama's Supreme Court nomination. They accepted a pro-letter and a con-letter... so this is not necessarily a complaint about the left-leaning Strib. Just the letter in question.
I am thrilled to hear that President Obama nominated a Latina to the Supreme Court. Latinos are the largest minority group in the United States and yet have been unrepresented. If Sonia Sotomayor gets appointed, Latinos will finally a powerful voice in American politics!
I hope Sotomayor does as much for the Latino community as Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall did for the black community.
