Gov. John Kasich, Republican, has the first all white cabinet since 1962. Apparently, that doesn't bother him. Today, according to 10TV, Gov. Kasich said something to the Ohio Legislative Black Caucus, that caught everyone by surprise. The Legislative Black Caucus met with Kasich to discuss his lack of diversity in his hires.

...State Sen. Nina Turner said Kasich told her "I don't need your people" when she complained about the lack of diversity in his administration. That prompted the Cleveland Democrat to unleash this scathing attack.
"Through his actions and deeds, Gov. Kasich has declared that Ohio is open for business, but if you are African-American you need not apply," said Turner.....
"We want 100 percent transparency as to who has applied for these positions, what they have applied for and reasons as to why these people have not been qualified to work in his administration," said Turner.....
Kasich said in his inaugural speech that he wanted people to work together. Unfortunately, we've discovered that Kasich only wants to work together with certain people.
