If, in fact, a black woman is indeed the most qualified person to sit on the court, then it would not be necessary to restrict the selection to black women, because she would rise to the top of any list in any case. OTOH restriction of the search to black women only amounts to expression of a concern that such people might very well not remain on top of such a list when others are also placed into consideration.

Who is currently the most qualified person to sit on the court? And why?

If the government was a private employer and Biden was the CEO, lawsuits would fly the moment after swearing in. Biden would be fired, and it would be a nice payday for those wronged.

Laws don’t apply to those in the government, of course.

Georgetown’s diversity, equity, inclusion program results in the liberal to conservative professor ratio to be maybe 10-15 to 1?

You have to understand that the entire Democratic Party political patronage system has nothing to do with finding the Best or most Capable.

Look at Joe Biden, Look at Nancy Pelosi, Chuck Schumer, they couldn't spot skill or competence and if someone was, it would scare them. Look at all the problems Biden has been having getting bipartisan support for any of his Senate confirmation hearings.

This has nothing to do with getting the best of anything to help this Country.
