The democratic candidates were basically jousting (with zero skill) with their pandering to the black community, being that South Carolina electorate is predominantly black.
They’re not even subtle about it.
What’s ironic about this is that he voted against Judge Janice Rogers Brown from becoming a U.S. circuit judge in 2005.
According to Western Journal:
Biden used a question that did not have anything to do with the judicial branch to promise that he would appoint a black woman to the Supreme Court.
But when he had the chance to prove he would vote for a black woman, he muffed it.
“When you get knocked down, get up, and everyone’s entitled to be treated with dignity — no matter what, no matter who they are,” the former vice president said.
“Also, that everyone should be represented. No one is better than me and I’m no better than anyone else,” he said.
“We talked about the Supreme Court — I’m looking forward to making sure there’s a black woman on the Supreme Court to make sure we in fact get everyone represented,” he said.
…because apparently a black woman is the only other type of person he could choose from? Not that a black woman wouldn’t do a great job, but SHEESH, at least ease into your deliberate pandering.
A qualified person is a qualified person, irrespective of gender and skin color.
