Joe Biden vows to select a woman Vice President and appoint a black woman on the Supreme Court

JOE Biden committed to picking a woman as his running mate during a heated Democratic debate on Sunday with rival Bernie Sanders.

The candidates went head-to-head in Washington, DC, without an audience due to the coronavirus pandemic spreading across the US.

Kicking off the event, Biden and Sanders enjoyed an elbow bump as they greeted each other.

When asked about a possible vice president, Biden said he will pick a woman to serve alongside him.

Biden also reiterated his intent to appoint the first African American woman to the Supreme Court.

Sexism and racism perfectly defined right here

[naturesmusic]

Shouldn't it be about who can best do the job? Who cares if green black blue pink or yellow? Politicians and identity politics are one and same!

[MostCedric]

Define someone’s fate by color or gender, not by skill, this is true racism.

[ScotiaGabagoo]

This is racism, you cant appoint people based on their gender, or their skin colour. That's the very definition of the word. Positions and jobs should go to the most qualified regardless of all this.

[mAcroFaze]

I appreciate the sentiment, but deciding to flat-out hire someone based on their gender and/or skin-colour is exactly what you're fighting against, surely.

[msokka]

Little does he know this is gonna make his approval rating go down

[ryanblubaugh]

He'll pick a woman that smells good.... nothing like a good smelling woman.

I dont care what is between their legs, i care what is between their ears!

[KAIDAX]

Personally for me if I was president I'd pick the most skilled people.

Reguardless of gender and race.

"We can't seem to get our own Democratic voters to choose a woman, so we're going to have to appoint one instead."

[britbazza]

"I'll appoint a black woman to the courts" is this actually racism in reverse ?

[marigold]

If women can control their bodies, how is it they can’t figure out how not to get pregnant?

[littlebull]

10 mins after this took place, Biden forgot everything he said

[bigbigby]

Here Joe admits he'd choose administration according to DEI.

[hggfhh]

LOG THIS before it is scrubbed from the internet.

[stanlycat]

And for the rest of her career she will live in the shadow of being selected for her gender, not her accomplishments.
Any faults that she might expose will forever be protected by the shield of sexism.

[tastysnack]

Favoring someone only because of their gender. Isn't that the very definition of sexism

[anthonylilly]

Wow, everyone is saying that he didn't say this! Everyone is saying that Republicans created this as a label, dei. Goddamn are we living in a twilight zone

[MeMe-poze]

Actions like these will lead to his downfall.
Our country doesn’t need to pander to any race. Period. 🇺🇸
