I said nothing about a vast pool. For starters we need to be mentoring them (I’m not in the legal field so maybe we already are) and developing a pipeline. In fact it should have been underway. And then it is the responsibility of McConnell and the president to put them in positions of power.
It takes work and effort but we should be doing it because it’s the right thing to do along with being smart politically.
That's what left-wingers do, they concern themselves with race. Conservatives couldn't care less about the melanin content, or lack thereof of a person's skin. It is utterly irrelevant.
On a side note, you don't really expect McConnell to do anything for anyone other than, McConnell, do you?
Every life matters
It’s smart politics to reach out to all voters. Republicans need to do more to reach out to minority voters, that’s just a fact. Conservatism isn’t a philosophy that benefits only whites. It benefits all and republicans need to continually sell that message. Conservatives need to do outreach and need to make an effort with young minority voters and in this case with potential minority judges.

First off out tent is not big as evidence of folks fighting over who is supposedly a real conservative over feelings towards trump. Coservatism is bigger than any one person. Saying i’ll choose you because of your race even if you have done a lessor job is pandering. Reaching out and mentoring people to help them is not pandering. Sitting back and waiting for minority voters to come to us isn’t working. We, Republicans, need to be in the trenches telling the beneficial story of conservatism over and over to people in minority communities and working with young minorities who otherwise wouldn’t have access. That’s not pandering. That’s working to expand the tent.
Look at all the Libs, Dems, Fags, and Jooz in this topic who think Trump is appointing judges based on race, rather than to avoid appointing leftwing tyrants. The fact is, mostly white men are qualified. Having shit for skin is only a qualification for lefty racists.
Consider all the highly qualified white men passed over in the Obama years. Only the left thinks race matters.

I’ll offer a sports analogy. Look at teams in the NBA that were the first to really scout overseas players. The reason they did that? Because there were incredible players all over the world that were there to be discovered. Same within communities of color and immigrants in the U.S. immigrants often make the best republicans because they truly appreciate what America stands for and what it has to offer. These are the people that can help grow our party while backing conservative values
