So I would be in a position to speak with some authority about the issue of what role race played in these decisions.

I would be interested in hearing about that. I can speak with some authority on how those decisions are made in several Executive Branch agencies. Managers trip all over themselves to find hires who present themselves well and are members of whatever group is in vogue at the time. They are usually unsuccessful because Uncle Sam can't compete on salary so they take great pride in those that they are able to reel in. In my experience, "diversity" trumps everything but style.
