Diversity matters, it's that simple. I don't understand why people are acting as if she was selected solely based on the fact that she's a Hispanic. It is one factor among many and that is OK.
It's easy to drag the matter through the gutter with a slippery slope argument and it's even easier and reasonable when you're in the majority.
