If you survey people of mixed race, you would get varying answers as to their perception of accuracy of your third statement. Race identity is personal and many mixed race people despise having to choose one race or another or having the diversity of their identity being swallowed by the term "interracial". It's not so simple. Just food for your thoughts. This is my last reply as well. Have a good night.

How about we put a qualified appellate judge and not a former politician with no experience or background in the judiciary.
