February 2005: Alberto Gonzalez confirmed as Attorney General

President Bush got off to a historic start with his second term Cabinet appointments. 

President Bush appointed a black woman as Secretary of State and a Mexican-American man as Attorney General. 

Alberto Gonzalez is a great American story, or as they say “Only in America”. 

He is the son of poor Mexican immigrants.  He worked hard and made his way to Harvard Law School. In the 1990’s, he met Governor Bush in Texas and became the Attorney General of the US. 

Well done, Alberto!

February 2005: President Bush's historic appointments

Back in February 2005, President Bush got off to a historic start with his second term Cabinet appointments. 

President Bush appointed a black woman as Secretary of State and a Mexican-American man as Attorney General.

Imagine that.  A conservative Republican appointed the first black woman as Secretary of State. She replaced the first black man as Secretary of State Collin Powell.

I guess that Republicans are indeed the party of Lincoln!

Imagine more.   A conservative Republican appointed the first Mexican-American as Attorney General.

Alberto Gonzalez is a great American story, or as they say "Only in America". 

He is the son of poor Mexican immigrants, worked hard and made his way to Harvard Law School.   In the 1990's, he met Governor Bush in Texas and will soon be the next Attorney General of the US.

We are very proud that a fellow Texan became the first Hispanic Attorney General of the US.

Well done, President Bush!
