Presumptive Democratic nominee Joe Biden said Tuesday that he’s compiling a list of Black women that could be potential nominees to the Supreme Court.

“We are putting together a list of a group of African American women who are qualified and have the experience to be in the court,” Biden said during a press conference in Delaware. “I am not going to release that until we go further down the line of vetting them as well.”

President Trump and the Republicans have been pressuring Biden to release a list of judges he’s considering as potential Supreme Court nominees.

Trump released his list of potential nominees in the run-up to the 2016 election. The president’s judicial nominations have been one of his greatest achievements in the eyes of his conservative supporters.

But Biden says he will keep his potential nominees under wraps for now.

I am going to guess that Janice Rogers Brown is not on this list.

For congress to pass a law and the president to sign it.

Holder already has made Joe’s selection

Angela Davis will probably be on his list.

Well, Joe, forget about “heels-up” Harris, who is NOT African American.

She and Rerun both checked out at 52.

Romney was eviscerated for this:

Binders full of women

[SpaceBar]

Because we don’t resemble Mozambique enough.

On a happier note, Rog, Dee, & Dwayne look good.

Betcha more than half of Biden’s potential cabinet will be black and female.

So I guess discriminating against men is ok? Discriminating against Hispanic women is ok? Discriminating against white women is ok?

As soon as you start promoting one demographic above others you are not helping that demographic, you are hurting all the others. What he should be doing is looking solely at qualifications related to job performance. Things like education, experience, prior decisions, reversal rates on appeal...
