Democrats pleased that new Fed president Raphael Bostic is black
The Washington Examiner ^ | March 13, 2017 | Joseph Lawler

Sen. Sherrod Brown, the top Democrat on the Senate Banking Committee, said Bostic's appointment "is an historic step forward that is long overdue.

Rep. Maxine Waters, the top Democrat on the House Financial Services Committee, also issued a statement applauding the appointment of Bostic as the first black and first openly gay regional Fed president.

Why do we care about what color he is? If he is smart, honest and industrious that’s all we need to know

All Democrats see is race and gender. Their brand of “diversity” trumps qualifications every time!

This is Trump’s goodwill gesture; it’s also an experiment.

If this guy does fine — fine. Trump will continue to have no quarrels.

If this guy bombs — someone more traditional will be appointed.

Neither his color or sexual desires have anything to do with the job.

Anyone who focuses on his unrelated activities to his job are to be ignored.

How is gay banking and black banking different from any other banking.

Hey, all my hiring decisions are based primarily on the skin color of the person I’m interviewing ...

That’s cool, right?

Right?

At least we blatantly see their warped priorities.

The thing libtards are happiest about an appointee is what their skin color is, or if they have a uterus.

It explains our education system and government services being in their current conditions.

The party of juvenile quota demanders.

Just as long as they hand out loans other than to straight, white, Christian males or Traditional families. Amirite?

That is because they did not learn a thing with Obama being president for 8 years.
