Ahhh.. the first Sotomayor thread.

A person who is latino would have (in the U.S.) different experiences based on their race then would white people. I imagine Sotomayor will try her best to be an impartial supreme court justice (she will be confirmed..) but every nominee you have would be somewhat shaped by who they are.

The point is, isn't everyone shaped by their experiences?  What makes being a white male more capable of being a judge then a latino female? Or vice versa. 

PS - I have to assume you are deliberately trying to ruin my efforts to mix up the context for a more honest reaction.  Did you really find it necessary to add the political context I so clearly tried to remove?
