There is no ‘Best qualified person for the job’. There are numerous people who are qualified, each offering their own range of qualifications and experience. Justice Brown Jackson is demonstrably highly qualified and a great pick. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I generally find that people who level such an accusation are closer to it than those they accuse.

So I take it your answer is "no, nothing other than a post on the internet". There was no change of tack. Biden showcased Justice Jackson for her skin colour and her sex. That is what I correctly pointed out. If anyone is the racist, it is the current occupant of the White House. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No native American has ever been nominated either. Nor has a Cuban American, male or female. Nor an Asian American, male or female. Black people have ascended the ladders of power in the USA, from President to cabinet to the military. This was no groundbreaking, daring act. It was just political pandering at its most crass. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
