Potential Supreme Court candidates during a second President Biden term
Fox News
President Biden will make diversity the central focus in nominating judicial nominees to Supreme Court vacancies and any other high court openings.
For now, officials say he plans to more prominently tout Jackson's confirmation to various key constituencies as the presidential campaign intensifies, especially to Black voters who will be key to his re-election. Shannon Bream currently serves as anchor of FOX News Sunday. She joined the network in 2007 as a Washington D.C- based correspondent covering the Supreme Court. Her latest book is "The Love Stories of the Bible Speak."
After Justice Stephen Breyer announced his 2022 retirement, Biden committed early on to naming the first Black woman as his replacement and gathered a number of qualified jurists for initial vetting. That internal list then expanded before three finalists were ultimately reached — Jackson and judges Leondra Kruger and J. Michelle Childs. Kruger and Childs remain top contenders for the Supreme Court, sources say.
