Sean Spicer, The Donald press guy, defends the lack of racial diversity in cabinet. Says it's about what nominees know. What do they KNOW?

13 of the 16 are WHITE MEN. Then you have

Elaine Chao (wife of Mitch McConnell...isn't that a conflict of interest?) Taiwanese American
Nikki Haley. Indian American (not native American..the other Indian)
Ben Carson. African American

There you have it. The first cabinet without a Latino or Latina since 1989. Retrogressive isn't it? The Donald does have those 3 token non-whites but they won't give him any trouble. They know their place.

    How respectful to refer to people as tokens....I expect better of you. 
    People should be appointed based on their knowledge and abilities not the race or ethnicity. To choose based on race is racist.
