15. Correction: the default is always a STRAIGHT white male

a gay man or a lesbian is SO far off the radar screen, it doesn't even occur to most liberals.

Despite the fact that there are plenty of them out there.

The only group, btw, that suffers from reverse affirmative action in these high profile appointments, in that they don't get appointed BECAUSE they are gay and the administration does not have the political courage to do it.
