Best Answer

The Senate.

Article II of the US Constitution authorizes the President to make appointments to certain government positions with the approval of the Senate. This is called "advice and consent," and is accomplished by vote. If the candidate is approved by a simple majority (51%) of votes cast, he or she is confirmed and is officially appointed to office.

Article II, Section 2

[The President] shall have power, by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, to make treaties, provided two thirds of the Senators present concur; and he shall nominate, and by and with the advice and consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme Court, and all other officers of the United States, whose appointments are not herein otherwise provided for, and which shall be established by law: but the Congress may by law vest the appointment of such inferior officers, as they think proper, in the President alone, in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments.

The President shall have power to fill up all vacancies that may happen during the recess of the Senate, by granting commissions which shall expire at the end of their next session.
