Supposing for a moment that Tom Clark didn't decide to assume senior status in 1967 so not providing a seat for Thurgood Marshall, the next opening occurring a few years later in 1969 or 1970. With Nixon in the White House he gets to pick the nominee he's more than likely going to choose someone to the right. Does anyone know if there were any black judges or qualified individuals who were at least centre-right in the scheme of things that would have been viable choices? Thanks.
