When man after man is selected, and statistically it is out of whack with the number of candidates, that is why I bring it up. Got it?

Well that's different, share with us your knowledge. What the sexual split of the potential candidates? Assuming he is going to pick an experienced judge in a senior position, what's the sexual split of that group? Personally, I have no idea.

the courts have ruled already (lower courts of course, where there is diversity), they have ruled that STATISTICS prove sexism. Courts have recently ruled that any corporation that has its statistics out of whack is proof of sexims.

Great, then the court system will be used to prevent sexism in corporations. I'm in favor of that. As for the Supreme Court, I think you have too small a success pool (9 judges, about one new one every three years) to satisfy all sexism, racism, age, height and hair/eye color groups....
