Would somebody please explain to me how this is any less of a discriminatory, racist/gender biased approach than maintaining that the nominee must be a white male?

I wouldn't be surprised if he nominated Kamala Harris then nominate Hillary Clinton to take over as VP and which point HRC would run in 2024
If he wasn't an in your face gay guy nobody would know or care who this otherwise failed small town mayor was.

Watched a clip where AOC was asked if Breyer should retire. I swear she had no clue about anything. Hell, she probably didn't know he is on the Supreme Court
Im surprised she didn't respond that he shouldn't retire because she really likes the ice cream his company makes…..
He gets to decide and he has a Senate that can approve. If he doesn't no one's fault but his. If he remembers that he just doesn't get to pick who he wants and that's it. He needs to find someone that can get confirmed, been that way all through US history. Obama seemed to forget that and thought he was "entitled" to get Garland confirmed because he wanted him. Obama seemed to have forgotten that not getting who he wanted through happened 28 times before Garland.tommie said:

Whoever it is will be in for a rough go after the Democrats behavior on Kavanaugh and Barrett. Not to mention Biden's own despicable behavior on Bork and Thomas. I hope he remembers that when his nominee gets a cold reception. I also hope he remembers that his job is to get someone that can be confirmed, not like Garland, and not just play martyr.
Man was that a great decision to not vote in Garland...he is an idiot
would be great to see common sense dictate the decision. Like Manchin and Sinema being Republican or against democrat vote

If they keep pressing Mancini and Dinema left i can see one or both switching parties. Both their States can accomodate a Republican easily.
Biden Reminds Everyone That Black Justices Can Be Just As Smart As Rich Ones

Our vibrations were getting nasty. But why? I was puzzled, frustrated... Had we deteriorated to the level of dumb beasts?

"Mixed race judges don't qualify," said Biden, insisting they "aren't black enough."
It is so far unclear whether Biden will also nominate black men who identify as women, or whether he knows what a SCOTUS Justice is or even where he is right now.

This could actually be entertaining. Hillary takes over as POTUS after the house and senate flip red in the midterm elections. She wouldn't get anything done, another right-wing conspiracy. She'd be so fun to watch throwing tantrum after tantrum. The Clinton body count would jump by the week. Bring it.
Well, the nominee will presumably be a lawyer (though of course there is no requirement) so there is a greatly elevated chance of this...Osodecentx said:[ President Biden's not-yet-named nominee ] is a raging alcoholicOldbear83 said:

First question should be to ask how she feels being nominated only because she is a black woman.
It would be my absolute honor to accept this nomination on behalf of the American people. I assure you I meet all the necessary qualifications as I am both black and female.

I didn't know that. You don't have to be an attorney to be a Supreme Court Justice?

Your ideas are intriguing to me, and I wish to subscribe to your newsletter.
Well, Justice Sotomayer showed last week that you don't need to know facts to be a SCOTUS Justice, so it follows that a law degree would just be a fashion accessory for some of the Justice as well.BornAgain said:

I think there have been a few non lawyers appointed (or at least justices that did not graduate from law school) but I don't think it has happened in many years. Could probably google it, just haven't.
I saw a statistic-- of the first 114 SC Justices, 49 graduated from a Law School. The last non-law school judges were appointed in the early 1940s.303Bear said:Constitutionally no, there are no real qualifications specified.BornAgain said:

Her sister is already a judge in the middle district of Georgia (federal). Maybe sis is in line for promotion. Who cares about appellate experience. If you have seen some of the answers that Biden's nominees to the federal trial courts have uttered to Sen. John Kennedy's questions, then you will understand that neither experience nor even knowledge of basic legal concepts is required to be nominated by the Biden Administration.BornAgain said:

a liberal supreme court justice doesn't have to be a lawyer, but they need law clerks who know how to "penumbra" and "emanation" their way around parts of the Constitution they don't like.
I really think Cartel Joe should go all-in and nominate Cardi B.

Expect the GOP to go ballistic to fight President Biden's nominee of a Black woman to the Supreme Court. NOTHING- I mean nothing-- triggers the right like a strong Black woman with power. Just ask VP Kamala Harris and Joy Reid!!

Never forget Dems filibustered Miguel Estrada from being the first Hispanic to be a judge on the US court of appeals .
He was not the "right" minority
The Dems also refused.to confirm this woman. So spare me their moral superiority on race and gender
