Answer: 2. candidates are nominated and appointed by the president if the senate approves by a majority vote.

Step-by-step explanation:

Candidates are nominated by Congress because believe it or not the President gets most of his direction from the Congress. So C in my opinion would make the most sense.

Hope this helps.
