    From what I've read, Biden's choices certainly seem qualified. Quite few women in top positions (yes, I see the sexual innuendo).

    Now does experience mean competence?

    I saw on the news where their are some members of the black community pissed off because he has only appointed one black person so far.

    Biden faces a decision: Bringing in qualified people, or having racial diversity. In a perfect world he would easily achieve both. In the real world the important positions, that attract news media attention, require a high level of experience, and the top candidates tend to be white. And male.
    I think you'll see more racial diversity in the lower level positions.

    Let's not forget the loud groups gets media attention, and the media loves controversy.


    Not all black folks. Some black folks will be pissed; some of them will get news media attention; some of them are in news media. I'm guessing generally speaking blacks who support Biden are going give him a chance.

    That situation was explained pretty thoroughly in one of your blogs.

    The mishandling of the aftermath does not have anything to do with Joe Biden. Appeasement can embolden. Enforcement can escalate. Knowing the outcome in advance impossible.

    The environment that fed the frustrations that boiled over has nothing to do with Joe Biden.

    How will Joe Biden handle the situation? That remains to been seen. Conjecture isn't fact.
