Breyer resigning, Biden to nominate USSC justice. (Poll)

[Slade3200]

Nope, but again - if they pick the person because of gender or color, and then look to qualifications, then they have done wrong. Biden spoke in these way's, so he has done wrong.

I actually heard a radio station today, and undoubtedly it was touting itself as an all black radio station because every commercial and advertisement was speaking with the word black in front of it. Now can you even imagine if the white's had something like that ? There would be fury and nashing of teeth like you've never seen before coming from a huge sector of black people, so why is it that all of a sudden after year's of the civil rights movement (mostly pertaining to color), does the black's think it ok to do what they would cry to the highest about if white's we're to do the same things ?????

Is your question about if whites had an all White radio station for real?! You can’t be that clueless can you?! Have you any understanding of our nations history?

 

[Slade3200]

No issue here.....what is yours?



Based upon identity politics, which is where we are at now, NO.

Experience and character do not matter in identity politics.

Whoa man. You are all over the place. Maybe you should reread this thread because you sound completely lost.

You’re saying Biden has done wrong yet he hasn’t even picked anybody. How do you think he decides which black woman to pick? They look at qualifications and do extensive vetting. The notion that that wouldn’t be done is rather absurd

Has nothing to do with him not releasing his list or coming up with his pick. It's him saying that he is going to nominate a person of color or black lady for the position, when in fact Skin Color has absolutely nothing to do with the vetting, the resume, and the hiring of a supreme court justice. This nation is multicultural, multi colored, and full of potential expert's who are highly qualified based on their educational background, their life experiences, and their character's. This color talk, and gender talk is outright ridiculous when it comes to placing a candidate in front of the people in order to help decide whose who in that can do the job right, and without bias on many important issues.

Yes I do, and so you think that Black's are somehow incapable of doing what white's or any other colors for that matter can do or have done also, otherwise if they get a total pass at not being required to obey the laws put in place in the 60s concerning these types of things ?? Black's can be racist also, so you do know that right ? Understanding these things are paramount to a color blind and equal meritocracy where work and character are rewarded, and not favoritism or idiocy being rewarded instead.

We aren't living in the past now, so get over it.

No more than you. Biden, chief protector of COTUS, early on says he's going after a black justice.....a female black justice.....whoa, what about all the other 'colored/colorless' people?
Civil Rights Act anyone?
A strong candidate is mentioned, with, most likely, an easy path to appointment, and , like I pointed out, she's not radical enough, a corporate judge......almost a white woman in prog eyes.

Didn’t we establish the other day that women have perspectives that men simply do not have. That Black people have perspectives that white people simply cannot have. Judges deal with social issues that affect minorities. Their qualifications will show their understanding of law and ability to make decisions. However Their perspectives and life experiences will affect the opinions that they write and the way they shape and mold our country. Do you really not understand this?

Three words should answer your questions. Historically oppressed minority. I just think about that for a minute

, We are quite literally living in the past right now. By the time you read this it will be the past.

 

[woodwork201]

To clarify.... When I mentioned Uncle Tom and Tomasena's, it was in the context of certain Black's labeling other black's who don't play along with them as Uncle Tom and Tomasena's. Make sure you read something correctly before making assumptions that are incorrect. Thanks.

Failure to communicate is generally on the side of the speaker. But thanks for clearing it up.

With what you said, how then can a black judge make decisions regarding a white person if they have no white perspectives and/or vice versa?

They can make a decision based on their perspective and understanding of the law. That’s all they can do. Right now most of the court has the white perspective. What it doesn’t have is a black female perspective which is Bidens whole point

I don't think it's Biden point.

Decisions regarding the law now can never be made without a black female perspective?
Lot of laws regarding civil rights and such of all Americans have been made without regard to having an identity politics perspective.
How did we ever get this far?

Why are you playing the game of absolutes?! It’s a weak tactic. We are talking about SCOTUS, a court comprised of 9 people. One that has NEVER had a black female perspective. That’s the reality

Whether or not it has had or will have a black female perspective or any other perspective should not be a prerequisite.
Their job is to interpret the Constitution and rule on the law, no matter to race, creed or color..

It’s not a prerequisite, it’s a preference and it happens to be the preference of the person in charge of making the next pick

Seeking a biased judge based on life experiences surrounding a skin color is as ridiculous as it gets. No we didn't establish any consensus on the ideas that you have presented here. If we want a color blind society, then let's get serious in having exactly that.

If the list was being formulated properly, then it would be made up of those who have the character, skills, education, and experience as a judge. This list would have male and female members of our society, and it would have a variety of colors hopefully, but if not then so be it because skin color should never determine an appointment in any job title in America. The fear of not having representation because of color is a myth. We as a people are smart enough to represent all in America, and if racism or violations are found, then get rid of a person that violates the law's. Simple.

If I were president of all Americans, and I were to say openly that I want a white person in a job as a preference, then the black's who would be against such a thing being said, along with the leftist, and many democrat's would go slam out of their mind's on such a thing. It's time to start calling this bull crap out, because if it's not right for white people, then it's not right for black people either... Enough of the stupidity already, and let's move the nation forward with character, skill, and hard work.

Who is the person in charge, making this pick?

Biden??

Or who has his ear?

Obama on one side, Susan Rice on the other?

Preference, politically goes directly to identity politics......not content of character.

Unfortunately we don’t have a color and gender blind society. There is a history of oppression and reminisce of that prejudice everywhere.
