Skin color should not enter into the equation at all.

If it does, it’s racism, pure and simple.

Playing both sides of the street, while finding a parade to get in front of.

“That would make supreme court 22% black. Apparently blacks would be overrepresented by 10%!”

I guess they still have a long way to go to match what I see on the sparse number of TV shows that I am exposed to.

Real tired of Linda’s two-facedness.

South Carolina voters are so stupid, they re-elected this jerk TWICE after he had voted for amnesty THREE times.

13% black and 6.5% commit 50% of the crimes.

Picking a black woman for SCOTUS isn’t affirmative action. Saying that you will only consider a black woman most certainly is. See the difference, Lindsey?

Let him nominate Candace Owens. She is a black woman and this imminently qualified.

Once again, Repukes give away the farm. Utterly disgraceful.

The Not Democrat party stands for nothing. A political party that has no agenda will be consigned to the dust bin of history.

Lindsey should just tell Joe to nominate Cardi B - we really need to have a WAP on the SCOTUS to “look like America” if that is the main criteria.

Come on Joe, what about a trans lesbian black female identifier?

The term affirmative action was created to be a positive thing - something everyone could get behind. The creators were proud of it then and still are. They even go to court to defend corporations and universities and governments that use this important tool to make a just, fair and equitable society.

Until now. Someone says Biden is using affirmative action to fill a court seat and the “internet explodes.” Now the term is a racist dog whistle and something Biden or no right-thinking person would ever do.

“No, Biden is not using affirmative action! It's a terrible thing to say he's doing what we have been doing for so long and of which we have been proud, ” they say.

So it begins.

How can anyone not acknowledge that this is affirmative action. Biden literally said he is going to nominate a black female. Not the best qualified person, but literally a black female. He didn’t even say best qualified black female. Just black female. Same as he did for his VP.

Affirmative action, by definition: “A policy or program providing advantages for people of a minority group who are seen to have traditionally been discriminated against, with the aim of creating a more egalitarian society through preferential access to education, employment, health care, social welfare, etc.”

Graham is on the Judiciary Committee, which is our only hope to halt this nomination process. As I have mentioned before on this board, he is the weakest link on the committee. He will fold.
