First Ohio governor since 1962 to have an entire Cabinet without any racial diversity
   
Ohio Gov. John Kasich's 20 Cabinet appointments so far lack diversity

COLUMBUS, Ohio — Gov. John Kasich is on pace to be the first Ohio governor since 1962 to have an entire Cabinet without any racial diversity.

Every one of Kasich's 20 full-time agency director hires so far has been a white person. Four are women.

The Republican governor is unfazed by critics who charge that he is ignoring diversity in such important public positions. Kasich says he has a tough job, and he has the right to surround himself with whomever he wants to help him get his agenda accomplished.

"I don't look at things from the standpoint of any of these sort of metrics that people tend to focus on, race or age, or any of those things," Kasich told The Plain Dealer. "It's not the way I look at those things. I want the best possible team I can get, and hopefully we will be in a position that we are fully diverse as we go forward.

1. So what's his agenda?
   
Hoods, robes, and burning crosses? Because it sure isn't jobs!!!

I dunno. Ohio might get the overflow of jobs from Indiana that are leaving Illinois under new onerous taxes.

I'm sure the DUmmies are upset because they are all members of the human race.  That right there disenfranchises quite a few of them.

You want to see lack of diversity, DUchebags?  Come to New Hampshire and Vermont--most homogeneous states in the nation.  Both about 98+ percent white...that's WHITE, not Hispanic. 

We've also got some of the lowest crime rates in the nation.  Go figure.

Same here where I live. Also areas that are dominated by Asians also have lower crime rates too.
