Is Biden’s pick for Supreme Court the best available?

Published 1:30 am Friday, March 4, 2022

Here is the unpleasent reality of why President Joe Biden is not nominating “the best available” person to the Supreme Court: He is making his picks based on minority “first-timers.” That way, he and his party get millions more in votes. Why did he pick the vice president? It got him millions more in votes from females. Was she really the best available?

Was Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson really the best available? Do you see a pattern here? Of course. His picks are all about securing the support from the millions of minorities. Don’t forget he appointed a minority to be the secretary of transportation. How about housing?

The United States needs the president to stop making picks based on getting himself more votes. Put America first, not himself. Don’t we all want the best. Do cows vote?
