Via email from ConstitutionalValues.Org:
“This spot introduces the American people to Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Every aspect of American life is affected by our justice system. It’s important that they understand her fair-minded approach to the law which is grounded both in her eminent legal qualifications and her life experiences.” – Wade Henderson, co-chair of the Coalition for Constitutional Values and president of the Leadership Conference on Civil Rights.
"In selecting Judge Sotomayor, the president has nominated a candidate of sterling credentials who will uphold the Constitution and the law. We commend President Obama for choosing a brilliant and fair-minded jurist to serve on our nation’s highest court. Judge Sotomayor is precisely the kind of nominee we need – one who, as President Obama described, ‘has the intellectual firepower but also a little bit of a common touch and has a practical sense of how the world works.’” – Nan Aron, co-chair of the Coalition for Constitutional Values and president of Alliance for Justice.
“President Obama used this opportunity to do exactly what he promised in last year’s election—to select a person who has demonstrated an abiding commitment to core constitutional values of justice, opportunity, and equality under the law. He has named someone who understands the impact that the law has on the everyday lives of ordinary Americans.” – Michael B. Keegan, co-chair of the Coalition for Constitutional Values and president of People for the American Way.
