I get that Kane is black but when you consider his history is he the best qualified person to contribute to this job, he's not exactly the best role model.

I can see the hesitation with his history. Of course, he has had far better growth as a person; marriage, child and sadly the loss of a child.
I feel that these newer experiences can help show he is human too. He’s made mistakes but he grew and made changes to move away from those antics. We all have made FAR worse mistakes then he has, and I’m quite sure the majority of posters on this site should clear their web history......
This is a step for him and I hope he keeps it going.
