President Obama has actually done a pretty good job as President at hiring a truly diverse staff. From cabinet positions all the way down to interns, he has attempted to build a team that looks like America. Unfortunately, he has less than two months left in office and most of that diversity will be flushed down the toilet. His impending absence reveals the painful truth that the Democratic Party has been using his administration as cover for their own lack of effort, from the top down, at building genuine diversity in our government.

Oh oh, blacks are waking up to the fact that Democrats have been keeping them on the plantation.
Only if by “looks like America” you mean America hating Bolsheviks.
Despite King’s ‘revelation’ about the Dem party, “diversity” does not necessarily equal competence & competence/ability is what this country needs after 8 years of Omuslim & his ilk screwing up the country!
Trump’s Cabinet: Character and Ability, Not Politics
http://www.americanthinker.com/articles/2016/12/trumps_cabinet_character_and_ability_not_politics.html
Obama’s cabinet picks had one thing in common: they were all ideological leftists who fell in line with the president’s thinking. Most of them not only thought like Obama, but shared the same background. They were so-called intellectuals educated at elite universities in the Northeast, held advanced degrees, and had no idea whatsoever how the real world operated.
Unlike Obama, Trump is appointing men and women with real-world experience and strong character. For eight years, Obama has surrounded himself with a collection of sycophants while the real policymaking took place in his head. Isolating himself in the company of Valerie Jarrett and Michelle didn’t help.
Another thing in Trump’s favor: after selecting the best talent available, Trump listens to his advisers, and he isn’t loath to cut ties with those who fail to produce. Both Paul Manafort and Chris Christie, Trump’s top advisers during the campaign, were shown the door when they became liabilities.
With fifty years of successful business experience, Trump is a keen judge of character, and he is a demanding boss. He is surrounding himself with principled and experienced individuals. The next eight years should be “great” for America.
There is no “soft” about it. Liberal Dems are the most racist bunch you would ever want to meet.
Ah, “diversity”.
A meaningless word important only to those not interested in product, quality, and success.
If having alien greys feom the planet Zorg makes the best bakers, pilots , whatever, then so let it be.
But, the progressive emphasis on diversity pretty much guarantees the poorest quality at the highest cost.
Sorry, but dats the twuth.
His premise is entirely screwed up. The standard of excellence is not "diversity" it is the best qualified people. In the case of the federal government, that would mean people who are not corrupt and have allegiance to the Constitution as the Rule of Law in America.
These self-righteous hypocrites ignore the words of their own. MLK, their standard bearer, said he dreamed of "a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character."
These Leftists are as phony as the day is long.
Gotta remember that the only reason Shaun King has a position at the New York Daily News is because he is black
Coming from Shaun King, riiiiiight......
Has the guy rehabilitated his cred/reputation yet?
I still remember when Newt walked into the House after gaining control and collected all the extraneous Democrat staffers as admins and such irrespective of any Representative who’d infested the place and told them “You are all Fired!”
I thought he was trans-racial. He’s black now and not a white guy pretending to be black? It’s all so confusing.
He self-identifies as black. Apparently doing so has given him a career.
Actually, if you go by percentages, which I am not advocating, there is a disperprtionate representation of certain minories.
I guess the leftist would say this is due to past misrepresentation.
That the ‘playing field’ needs to be artificially level. Regardless of competency or aptitude.
Soft bigotry? Then what is the definition of hard bigotry?
It has taken Shaun King a while to understand liberalism and hypocrisy go together.
Shawn King ain’t wakin’ up to nuthin’!
He’s a hater, a liar, and a fake black man!
Screw him!
>>that diversity will be flushed down the toilet.<<
Interesting choice of words.
But what else should be done with this excrement?
“...diversity in our government...”
there is no Constitutional directive that the government organizations be diverse in makeup. Diversity is a gimmick of the left to tear down our Constitutional ordered representative Republic.
Further, there is no Biblical directive that Christians support diversity. We are called to be welcoming, to be good employees, to exhibit the fruits of the Spirit, etc, but requiring diversity is not smiled upon.
“President Obama has actually done a pretty good job as President at hiring a truly diverse staff. From cabinet positions all the way down to interns, he has attempted to build a team that looks like America.”............
As a Christian nation, how many Muslims did you say he has put on our payroll versus Christians?
Kind of like their claim of “tolerance.”
