Thanks.

Of interest is that foreign service officers were trained.
Appointing an acquaintance from your golf club seems to ignore that on the
surface.

Some here may recall the appointment of Shirley Temple Black,
United States ambassador to Ghana and to Czechoslovakia, and
also served as Chief of Protocol of the United States.  There was a lot
of discussion involving her qualifications as I recall.

There is a nice exemplar of her signature if anyone want to vote :-(
Smart lady it turns out.
