Well, of course she wasn't going to say yes. She wants the job. That's why I say her becoming a Supreme Court judge will only benefit her, not black people. This goes for any black person who gets put into a high position of power in the US. The entire system doesn't change just because a black person gets a high position in it.
And this is not a knock towards any black person in such a position. It's great for them personally. It's no victory for black people.
