Can you even imagine the backlash had this said by any political candidate. Why is this acceptable for a large portion of the population. This is discrimination against anyone who is not black or a female.

The man should never have been elected. He also said they you aren’t black unless you vote for me.

He did worse than that. He spear headed putting thousands of black men in jail because he is actually racist. You can watch his racist tirade on video on the congressional floor

Racism is not evil.

If it was, Biden's action would be condemned instead of celebrated.

Biden is a whore....this is nothing more than fulfilling a campaign promise. The left would kill him if he reneged.

If I ever get the chance I will appoint a coon arse from Breaux Bridge with a New Iberia hair cut.

Cajun Baws have been under represented on the Supreme Court for too long !!

I'm hoping crap like this discourages some of their bright young stars to turn their back on helping them fight their political wars. Imagine busting your arse and going through the hustle of summaundergrad, Yale Law School, law review, plum gov gig, Supreme Court clerkship, grinding on out complex opinions on a Circuit Court, etc... only to be told you can't even interview for this job because of your skin color or race (which by the way is illegal, not that the media cares).

Federal Judges are well paid but they typically take a major pay cut from what they could get as a partner at a white shoe law firm or think tank. I've known a few of them and they are a bit disgruntled and complain about crap like their wife shopping at pottery barn or their college kid eating out at restaurants every night on daddy's credit card while their former law review peers are building fancy vacation homes.

If you take away prestigious appointments for white males, because they don't belong to a coddled demographic, then you are going to see more and more of them reject the political arena in favor of big bucks in the private sector. I know I would.

The same thing is happening with actors. They are flat out telling white male aspiring actors and acting students: look, if there's a minority sitting in the call room, you are not getting that role of husband who helps wife with the laundry in the detergent commercial or the role of Bartender #2 in an episode of Law & Order, so unless you're positive you're the next Leo DiCaprio, pick another profession.

Could Biden appoint a black man who identifies as female?

Would non-binary count?

The 14th amendment states that no person shall be denied equal protection under the law. Surely being passed over for a job due to gender(male) and race(white) is a violation.

100% double standard. The Dems will pander to the black voters no matter what. LBJ said it himself. And right on cue, they're falling in line.

Openly discriminating against White people is the true Jim Crow 2.0.

Reagan did the exact same thing when he vowed (and then did) appoint a woman to the Supreme Court. So there is precedent for tipping your hand that you plan to appoint a member of an underrepresented population. Not sure why this is such a big deal. Having a Supreme Court that reflects our diverse nation is good. It's not like there aren't qualified people of all races/background to pick from.

Are you implying that you only represent whatever race or gender you are?

Race nor gender should even matter.
