George Washington had an unfair advantage in this category, having had the unique opportunity to handpick the inaugural six justices of the Supreme Court. Over the course of his two-term presidency, Washington exercised his nominative authority for the Supreme Court a remarkable 14 times. Of these selections, an impressive 10 nominees were confirmed and served on the highest bench in the land.
