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.

Yeah me too.
Candace Owen.
Satire?
No?
These pod-people are insane.
I thought Biden may bring out Michele....but, also thought...nah, why would she want to work when she is living the good life!
Maybe she should get a college degree first, then a law degree, then practice law for a decade or two.
I do assume that this is a joke?
Candace Owens does not even have a bachelor’s degree.

I like her but she simply is not qualified to be a judge.
Oh, I understand that. But if I need work done on my car, I want a trained and experienced mechanic. I don’t think there is enough in her simply being Michelle Obama that makes her desirable for the Supreme Court, as hard as that is for some people to believe. Her aura would burn out rather quickly, I think.
She wrote off a bunch of patients to lesser hospitals...
I was thinking of the entertainment value.
This should be more serious, really.
I would still trust Candace over anyone the crazy Left would install.
How the neck can be do that? He is not president.
(Is /s necessary?)
Dear Mr. House,
SENILE Joe Biden has about the same chance as I have of winning the WH in 2020.= It’s past time for you & every other LEFTIST DIMocRAT to just admit that the DIMs picked an UNFIT candidate, as they simply had nobody that was better.
Further, it his highly likely that the DIMs are going to lose 2-3 seats in the US Senate, too.
The bottom line = The DIMocRATS are going to LOSE in a HUMILIATING LANDSLIDE because a majority of the American voters are ‘sick to death” of LEFTIST LIES, HATEFULNESS & all the rioting, looting, arson & other civil disorder that they see BLM/ANTIFAS & other radicals/criminals do on TV
In point of fact, Biden may well NOT live until Christmas Day, as he has the same symptoms as my late Mother did in her last 6 months of earthly life.
(ImVho, “Dr. Jill” should take the former VPOTUS home to live out his last few months as comfortably as he can.)
Yours, TMN78247
I doubt that either she or the hubs would want to take the pay cut.
She is also new to conservatism, she voted for Obama.
She’s too lazy.
The only thing Mooch wants to be nominated for is an OSCAR for playing the role of a former First Lady who becomes a serial talk show guest.
No, no! Elizabeth Warren , the first Native American Justice.
