Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answers are C and D. The two individuals that President George H.W. Bush appointed as Supreme Court Justices are Clarence Thomas and David Souter.

Explanation:

-Clarence Thomas is an American jurist. Since 1991 he has been Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. Thomas is the second African-American to have been a judge of the Supreme Court. Because of his views and interpretation of the constitution, Thomas is considered a member of the conservative wing of the Court.

Thomas began his judicial career in 1990, when he was appointed Judge of the Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia. Then, after the retirement of Associate Justice Thurgood Marshall, President George H. W. Bush nominated him to the Supreme Court in 1991. His nomination generated numerous criticisms after an attorney, Anita Hill, denounced him for sexual harassment. However, the Senate confirmed the nomination of Thomas with a final vote of 52-48 (the most closed in history).

-David Sourter is a jurist from the United States. From 1990 to 2009 he held the position of Associate Justice in the Supreme Court of the United States.

Souter's judicial career began in 1983 when he was appointed Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the State of New Hampshire. In 1990 President George H. W. Bush appointed him Judge of the First Circuit of Appeals in Boston. Months later, Bush nominated him to the Supreme Court after the retirement of Associate Justice William J. Brennan.
