Replacement SCOTUS Justice no males and no whites need apply

[TemplarKormac]

You mean to tell me the Republicans can't find a negro in their party who is smarter than Marjorie Taylor Greene?

That's a low blow.

 

[Rambunctious]

How many black Republicans are in the House and Senate?

How many black Democrats are in the House and Senate?

How many black Republican nominees for president have there been?

Why do you care?....maybe more should run for office with a message that appeals to people....to select people for their skin color or gender is the very definition of bigoted....can't you see that?....

Here you go dickless, a CNN story from 6 years ago:

A more diverse slate of Republican presidential possibles

Take a look at the more diverse slate of potential 2016 Republican presidential contenders and one thing becomes quite clear: this is not your daddy's GOP -- at the top anyway.

Washington CNN —
Take a look at the more diverse slate of potential 2016 Republican presidential contenders and one thing becomes quite clear: this is not your daddy’s GOP – at the top anyway.

There are Latino Sens. Marco Rubio of Florida and Ted Cruz of Texas.

There is an Indian American: Gov. Bobby Jindal of Louisiana.

And joining Jindal, Rubio and Cruz from the Generation X ranks are Gov. Scott Walker and Rep. Paul Ryan, both of Wisconsin.

Boomers potentially in the mix include Pennsylvania Sen. Rick Santorum, Sen. Rand Paul of Texas and Gov. Chris Christie of New Jersey.

Three out of the past four Republican nominees were all well into their 60s, while the Democrats over the same period went with younger candidates.

Now look:

Democrats are taking a page from Ronald Reagan, the oldest president ever on Inauguration Day at 69.

Hillary Clinton would be that age on Election Day 2016, if she runs and wins, while Vice President Joe Biden might be considered historically “young” for a senator at 73 at the same point, but breaking new ground for the Oval Office.

Both are quite pale, too, and so is most of “the bench” of the party that embraced history in 2008 and nominated the first African American for President in Barack Obama, who was at the time merely in his 40s.

If you want to end racism and bigotry in America than stop being racist and bigoted....

Tell me, if blacks were allowed to think for themselves and not be shamed for having a conservative ideology, do you think there would be more blacks in the Republican party?

And yeah, there's Tim Scott, Herschel Walker (potentially), Winsome Sears Ben Carson, David Cameron, Alveda King, and plenty more that would delve into politics if they weren't being shamed by people for their conservative values.

The Republican party isn't devoid of African Americans like you so fervently believe.

I always thought that a Justice was picked on their merits as a Judge.
Now I'm finding out that it's based on gender and race?
Identity politics on display

You mean prior to Marshall they didn't care about race?
You mean prior to Day O'coonor they didn't care about gender?

The Republican party isn't devoid of African Americans like you so fervently believe.

But they are definitely thin on the ground in that party

What are you getting at?

The lack of diversity makes them racist?

I mean, if they were, there wouldn't be blacks or any minorities in the party whatsoever. The party would actively forbid them from joining.

I nominate Whoopi Goldberg... two out of three qualifications met... and two outta there ain't bad...

 

[Concerned American]

Well. He did limit it to a female candidate, so maybe not to worry.

Barack claims Michael is a woman.

no, not at all. Just saying it's not their party of choice.

 

[BackAgain]

Barack claims Michael is a woman.

What?! A politician who lies?????

 

[rightwinger]

why on earth would someone's skin color and whether they have a penis or vagina have anything to do with whether they are qualified to a SCOTUS judge?

it comes down to your perspectives and experiences in life

When all decisions are made by White Males, you get a very limited point of view

 

[Meister]

You mean prior to Marshall they didn't care about race?
You mean prior to Day O'coonor they didn't care about gender?

I do believe the point I was making went over your head, Grump.

Could you link me to where a standing president said he was going to
pick a Black male for the SC position?
Could you link me to where a standing president said he was going to
pick a White female for the SC position?

I'll wait here for you while you find those links, thanks in advance.

How many minority Judges did Trump consider in his THREE picks?

Trump only looked at whites

President Trump published a list of his potential justices for the Supreme Court, and they all weren't white.

Once again with your preconceived metrics.

Blacks, Latinos, and Asians were all considered on that list along with whites. Your argument dies when you look at the wider and more legitimate metric.

Qualifications, not race. That means there is a random chance that a minority will meet those qualifications.
