Is the Senate approving a Supreme Court appointment an example of federalism?
No, because it has nothing to do with the relative power and jurisdiction between state and federal government. The Senate approving a presidential appointment is an example of the system of "checks and balances" in our federal government. Requiring Senate approval of presidential appointments, prevents the executive branch of government from having too much power over who shall be judges, ambassadors and other federal officials.
