Question: Who appointed the justice who Judge Sonia Sotomayor replaced on the Supreme Court?

<P0-S0>  He served from October 1990 until his retirement in June 2009. <P0-S1>  Appointed by President George H. W. Bush to fill the seat vacated by William J. Brennan, Jr., Souter sat on both the Rehnquist and Roberts courts and came to vote reliably with the court's liberal members. <P0-S2> David Hackett Souter ( ; born September 17, 1939) is a retired Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. <SEP> <P1-S0> Ruth Bader Ginsburg (born Joan Ruth Bader; March 15, 1933) is an Associate Justice of the Supreme Court of the United States. <P1-S1>  Ginsburg was appointed by President Bill Clinton and took the oath of office on August 10, 1993. <P1-S2>  She is the second female justice to be confirmed to the Court (after Sandra Day O'Connor), and one of four female justices to be confirmed (with Sonia Sotomayor and Elena Kagan, who are still serving). <P1-S3>  Following Justice O'Connor's retirement, and prior to Justice Sotomayor joining the Court, Ginsburg was the only female justice on the Supreme Court. <P1-S4>  During that time, Ginsburg became more forceful with her dissents, noted by legal observers and in popular culture. <P1-S5>  She is generally viewed as belonging to the liberal wing of the Court. <P1-S6>  Notable majority opinions Ginsburg has authored include "United States v. Virginia, Olmstead v. L.C.," and "Friends of the Earth Inc. v. Laidlaw Environmental Services, Inc." <SEP> <P2-S0>  The first was Judge Sonia Sotomayor to fill the vacancy created by the retirement of Justice David H. Souter. <P2-S1> President Barack Obama made two successful appointments to the Supreme Court of the United States. <P2-S2>  Sotomayor was confirmed by the United States Senate on August 6, 2009, by a vote of 68–31. <P2-S3>  The second appointment was that of Solicitor General Elena Kagan to replace the retired John Paul Stevens. <P2-S4>  Kagan was confirmed by the United States Senate on August 5, 2010, by a vote of 63–37. <SEP> <P3-S0> The basis of the Bahamian Law and legal system lies within the English Common Law tradition. <P3-S1>  Justices of the Supreme Court, Registrars and Magistrates are all appointed by The Governor-General acting on the advice of the Judicial and Legal Service Commission, which is composed of five individuals who are headed by the Chief Justice as their chairman. <P3-S2>  The Chief Justice and the Justices of the Court of Appeal, including the President, are appointed by the Governor-General on the recommendation of the Prime Minister after consultation with the Leader of the Opposition. <P3-S3>  Once appointed, the salaries and other terms of appointment of the Chief Justice, Justices of Appeal and Justices of the Supreme Court cannot be altered to their disadvantage. <P3-S4>  Justices of the Supreme Court can serve until the age of 65 years and, where agreed among the judge, the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition, may serve until the age of 67. <P3-S5>  Justices of Appeal can serve until the age of 68 years and, where agreed among the judge, the Prime Minister and the Leader of the Opposition, may serve until the age of 70 years. <P3-S6>  The law of The Bahamas makes provisions for the appointment of 12 Justices to the Bench of the Supreme Court, inclusive of the Chief Justice, and for five Justices of the Court of Appeal, inclusive of the President. <P3-S7>  The Chief Justice, as Head of the Judiciary, is an ex officio member of the Court of Appeal, but only sits at the invitation of the President.
