Pete, look at what i posted above in terms of democrat policy impacting blacks. and tell me what i said, which is wrong.

all you can do, is respond to something i never said.

look at what each side says about school choice. At Trump’s SOTU, republicans were going berserk at the news of low black unemployment. Remember how the democrats reacted? They sat on their hands, scowling.

If they want blacks to succeed,, please explain why they were miserable at low black unemployment.

Explain why Republicans sat and didn’t rejoice when Barack Obama was President
Explain why Republicans think that no black woman is qualified to be a Supreme Court Justice

Explain why there are roughly 100k elected positions in the U.S.
and Republicans announced that 40 Blacks are running as GOPers, that is closer to zero than to even 1%. It's more likely that you'll be struck by lightning than represented by a Black Republican.

And the spectacular halfime show sure did rattle the GOP incel crowd.

again, what does it say that you cannot EVER answer the question that i asked?

no republican ever said that ( hearing voices again). what they’re saying, is that it’s wrong ( and obviously illegal) to ignore potentially better candidates based on gender and skin color

Lindsay Graham has come out and said that there’s one black woman a bunch or republicans would vote for.

I dare you to post evidence that any influential republican said that no black roman is qualified.

Did they say that when Trump said he would only pick a candidate approved by the Federalist Society?

yeah, it would probably be wrong to discriminate based on whether or not a judge is a Constitutionalist or not when nominating one for the Supreme Court

Jim keep convincing yourself Republicans push back against a Black SJC pick is about “ a better candidate “

Just like changing for voter laws were for “ election integrity “ even in states Trump won. More like they are afraid of Turn out.

Texas counties reject unprecedented numbers of mail ballots ahead of March 1 primary under restrictive new law

To be eligible to vote early by mail in Texas, you must:

be 65 years or older;
be sick or disabled;
be out of the county on election day and during the period for early voting by personal appearance; or
be expected to give birth within three weeks before or after Election Day; or
be confined in jail, but otherwise eligible.

These must be the fraudsters Texas is after , most over 65 I would bet vote Republican

i answered that question exactly as it was asked. i’m
sorry if you couldn’t comprehend it, but here is the answer again….no influential republican ever said that. To repeat, no influential republican said anything close to what pete claimed they are saying.

If there’s a highly qualified black female candidate, fine. buts it’s discrimination to say ahead of time that you’re excluding a huge number of people based on skin color and gender. How is that not discrimination?

I'll ask again. Did they say that when Trump said he would only pick a candidate approved by the Federalist Society?

And how about when Reagan said he would only pick a woman? Was it obviously illegal then?

saying you’ll pick one that conservatives will like, is a little different than saying your pick will be a certain gender and color.

does any president pick one whose politics aren’t similar to the presidents?

i was a tad young when reagan made that announcement. but it was a stupid thing for him to declare. it’s blatantly unconstitutional.

You asked this already, and I gave the same answer, which answers your question as it was asked, and is consistent with my view on Biden. If you'd care to ask the same question again, perhaps you can flag my response here and just refer back to it, that'll save us both some time.

Picking someone of a certain gender or race for political reasons (like Trump picking Barrett) is one thing. Declaring way ahead of time that only one race/gender will be considered, is something else. It's stupid when Reagan did it, and it's stupid fo Biden to do it.

Does anyone here, or on Bidens team, ask themselves why his approval ratings are where they are?

The Constitution does not set any qualifications for service as a Justice, thus the President may nominate any individual to serve on the Court.

But obviously conservatism is the principle that in groups are protected but not bound by law and out groups are not protected but bound.

Because, originalism…….

i’ll make it as simple as i can…

if it’s ok for Biden to say white men can’t apply for this job, it’s equally ok for someone else to say that blacks can’t apply for another job.

Unless whites are not equal
to blacks.

There are two types of people in this country.

1. People who see opportunities for minority populations as progress that makes us proud.

2. People who see minority populations gaining equality as a threat.

Group 1 are Americans.
Group 2 are Republicans.

Trump said he would pick someone "choosen" by the Federalist society. Reagan said a woman. You and your ilk (I think that is a scummy word but one you throw out there frequently so I'll use it) shows the hypocrisy of the Rs.

I'll explain again.....it was not racist to announce that a pick for the supreme court would be a constitutionalist....it was not racist to say a pick for a supreme court would be a woman....it is incredibly racist to state that a person would be picked based on their skin color at the exclusion of other individuals who do not meet your skin color litmus test

And I’ll say again.

Your in dream land ! if you think any black women were on Ron’s list when he picked his women !

But feel free to think otherwise
