I'm well aware, and also aware of holdover attitudes from the 60s.

I have lived in South Carolina for better than 60 years with a staunch unreconstructed republican family who changed from the Methodist Church to the Baptists after better than a hundred years because the Methodists had a picture of a black family in their Sunday School literature. The republicans here still haven't changed a bit and they were all big Reagan people.

You don't know this nor can you prove it.
All you have to do is read the laws that have been passed since LBJ was in office to deal with overt discrimination to prove it.

What the hell are you even talking about? So a leftist is taking place of a leftist?


You understand that nothing is changing, yes? Never mind a leftist takes a leftist spot...and the left jumps for joy.

Bull crap, prove what you say. And if you cannot prove the talked about race, you point is useless.

But go ahead....prove me wrong.

Are you asking me to read all the laws since lbj?

Basically what you're saying is that you cannot provide anything to prove yourself right on what you said.

So what's the big deal? Why ya sweatin' it? Just a compulsive reaction to anything Biden does, I 'spose?

Of course this one could very well be FURTHER left...and will definitely be decades younger so kind of re-setting the clock, so to speak.

Well, you "spose wrong" And if you don't know the big deal, then maybe you should stop posting in political threads.

How will it FURTHER the left, when a leftist takes over a leftist position? Is it because you don't really know whats going on and just listening to the media you agree with?

Only the ones related to resolving the problems of systemic racial discrimination. If there aren't any it shouldn't take you too long.

Why would it be a big deal? If you want to nominate someone for SCOTUS, all you have to do is get elected president and wait for an opening.

At the end of the day, it is still Biden's decision alone. Deal with it.
