Pres. Bush’s U.S. Supreme Court nominee, Judge Samuel Alito, Jr., wrote in his ‘Personal Qualifications Statement’ when applying to be an Assistant Attorney General under Pres. Ronald Reagan that “I am and always have been a conservative” and that he was “particularly proud of my contributions in recent cases in which the government has argued in the Supreme Court that racial and ethnic quotas should not be allowed, and that the Constitution does not protect a right to an abortion.”
