This weekend, the nation will honor the legacy of U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg, who died at age 87; soon thereafter, former Vice President Joe Biden's campaign must seize the moment and stake out a landmark candidate to replace the beloved jurist. The nominee must be someone who advances the cause of racial and gender justice and quells Republican efforts to bum-rush a replacement.
What it means is that the Biden campaign cannot simply propose to nominate a woman of traditional qualifications for the court. If it is to make history, then it must spotlight a woman who embodies the dream of the civil rights movement. That person is former first lady Michelle LaVaughn Robinson Obama.
As the nation grapples with protests for racial justice, Obama is best positioned to symbolize the Afro-American promise. Her roots in the authentic experience of the Black urban migration connects her story to the story of pioneer civil rights figures such as Mary McLeod Bethune. Bethune rose from humble origins on a cotton plantation in South Carolina to found the Bethune-Cookman Institute in Daytona Beach, Fla., and to become an adviser to former President Franklin Roosevelt during the Great Depression.
In Obama, concerned Americans would be comforted by her well-known intellectual acumen and dedication to the goals of equal justice with fairness. She is singularly qualified to occupy the seat that inherits the ideals of Ginsburg.

OMG, had to google search, that is his kid!
She would never agree to it.
Wasn’t she disbarred?
Good question.
Michelle is an intellectual lightweight. Just read her Princeton Senior thesis, and it is plainly obvious. She was also told she needed to find another job after less than two years at her law firm. In other words, she didn’t know shit about the law and was lazy.
Her dad was on the Chicago city council. That’s the only reason she got into Princeton and Harvard Law.
I’m not even sure Joe can consider when to take a dump
or not.
As for Michelle, why not send her to NASA? She’d be just
as qualified to help get folks to Mars, as she would be
a qualified SCOTUS justice.
Ginsburg was a tranny?
My hopes and dreams is that we sweep the election by holding the President, get a super majority in both houses (buh-bye Nancy). Then later we can get rid of the Rino’s and liberals.
Is the Hill that desperate for clicks?
She doesn’t even have a law license !

Proof that some Democrats are completely ...............
[I guess TDS on its own is worse than coke and meth combined. These lefties are really gone upstairs!]
I’ve seen them in action, elsewhere. I can assure you that your statement is correct beyond your wildest nightmares.
A good portion of them are simply not rational. Not in the least.
How did we ever get to the point where they suggest the wife of a president should be elected president, supreme court justice just on the basis of being a presidents wife and nothing else, ridiculous
Too dumb. Too lazy.
The person I was replying to said the next Justice should be a tranny.
That’s a pic of Magic Johnson’s son.
I understood. But, had no idea until I saw the pic that was his son. It was a shock. I didn’t know if it was a ... still so perplexed. Lol
It’s okay, it hurts my brain too.
