President Obama's Supreme choice: Someone who knows race is.....

"We need somebody who's got the heart to recognize — the empathy to recognize what it's like to be a young teenage mom. The empathy to understand what it's like to be poor or African-American or gay or disabled or old. And that's the criteria by which I'm going to be selecting my judges."
-Barak Obama

I am sure any of these ladies would fit the bill and make Nancy Pelosi right at home:

Chief Heather Fong the first
SFPD female chief of police;


Theresa Sparks (center, former male),
president of the San Francisco Police Commission,
CEO of a multi million-dollar sex toy
retailer,
and a transgender woman.

Sgt. Stephan Thorne (right, former female), the
first transgender SFPD police officer.
