"The first black woman on the Supreme Court wouldn't be bad, especially if her last name is Brown."
How about the most qualified person, regardless of sex or race?

Thank you!
All of this "quota" talk (replace a woman with a woman, or, hey, maybe the first Hispanic) drives me completely nuts. I thought the time for affirmative action was past.
Does anyone actually think that if he nominates a hispanic, or African American (such as when Thomas was apponited), that it will really change the way that minority group would vote?? This is really becoming stupid!
Look, the majority of African-Americans and Hispanics vote liberal... Deal with it! How about we actually make decisions that will reflect true conservative values which will then in turn solidify our base voters... If the MOST QUALIFIED candidate happens to be African-American or Hispanic, great! Then let's nominate them, but keep Affirmative Action and quotas out of our SCOTUS nomination process...
