He's looking for the "ultimate" minority. I don't know about the hermaphridite part though. He'll probably need to spend some time in San Fransick-o for that aspect.


...or he'll pick one of his buds from from chicago; blago?

The only one I am quite sure on is it will be a woman.

Obama is not going to rattle the PUMA cages more by going for another male on the supreme court.

Gay? A possibility because there is enough time for people to get to know before 2012 but its risky and I dont expect Obama to take risks.

I chose a hispanic female, although a black male isn't out of the question.

As an aside, isn't it sick how someone's gender and heritage seems at least equally (if not more) important than their qualifications in this matter?

Anyone ever wonder why racism and misogynism is still commonplace?

This is your answer.

Ya hit the nail on the head there Aramike... The Dems are way more concerned about race than the Republicans have ever been. They always have going back to the Civil war.
