One should be Black Transgendered female who runs fast.

That way we've covered 2-3 extra check boxes.

Sorry Cory you're a Male. You no longer get to participate, no matter what color you are.

So, who is he going to pick as his running mate? Not that he's going to need one. Stacey Abrams? Oprah? Michelle O? Whoopie?

Overboard. If the two men on the ticket are well-qualified, then there should be no issue.

He is lgbtq and black so that overides any negative points for having been born a male. He would be more electable if he went through gender reassignment surgery. And if he converted to islam

We just wonder why diversity is considered mandatory and always a good thing by default by the Left?
Because all the left cares about is "Novelty politics"

Booker's thoughts on this are just as screwed up as those on the right that would refuse to vote for a woman or openly gay candidate regardless of their qualifications.

I could care less about any identifications of a candidate, just show me what they've done to deserve a vote and what their plan is if they win, that's all I need to know from either side.

However, that said, I think he's wrong. We should all always vote for the most qualified candidate.
Seems to me that for one of the most important jobs in the world, people would care more about the person's ability and/or merits over what they look like. What an absolutely stupid reason to vote for someone to be president. Their appearance means absolutely nothing to the job.
