I have chosen to be the advisor of Jack Wolfman, a veteran Democrat, for the 7th Congressional District in the Midwestern State of Transylvania during the elections of 2016. He has had much experience in being a district representative and believe that he has an advantage when running in 2016. Not only has he had the experience for six terms, his numbers, even when losing, were still impressive. Since when he first ran in 2000, he has not had less than 45% of the vote. It is obvious to see that the constituents are very familiar with him and he has been able to get work done when he help congressional office. He was Committee Chair of the House Veterans’ Affairs Committee. So I believe that his chances of newly maintaining office are just election away, not only is he a qualified candidate, he is also a candidate that had already done work for his

Currently, the two Senators for the United States of America from California are Dianne Feinstein and Barbara Boxer. Dianne Feinstein was born in San Francisco on June 22, 1933 into a Jewish family.

In the year 1992, Feinstein joined the Senate where she would go on to do incredible tasks such as helping in the creation for the Gun Free Schools Act and the Hate Crimes Sentencing Enhancement Act. Although this was only her first year, she proceeded in taking part to create other acts and on top of this help the general public through addressing topics such as rail safety and drought relief

Barbara Boxer stated, “even if I have to stand alone, I will not be afraid to stand alone. I’m going to fight for you. I’m going to fight for what’s right.” She is a member of the Democratic Party. Barbara Boxer, the United States Senator for California, is a very strident, harsh person. However, her aggressive nature and strong voice as a Senate are qualities necessary to fight for her view on environmental issues, feminisms, immigration policy, and the U.S. involvement in Iran.

This committee is comprised of lawyers and other criminal justice officials that recruit, examine, and assess potential applicants. These individuals select a judge based on his or her experience and qualifications. A pros of this process is that it minimizes the chance of selecting a judge because of their political status or their social links. The most important pro of merit selection is that the absolutely most qualified candidate is chosen based on their history. There is no other process that could weed out the unqualified candidates and pick the best person for the job. That is why this process is without a doubt the most appropriate way to appoint a
