Duncan Black: “The idea that for any job, especially something like Supreme Court judge, there’s one ‘most qualified’ person who can be determined is just idiotic.”

Then you’re not looking hard enough. A critical reviewer should be able to determine qualification differences between any two individuals. Giving up and picking between them based on race or gender is lazy.
