nominee. there has been no announcement from justice breyer. let him make whatever statement he is going to make and i will be happy to talk about it later. reporter: now the focus turns to the president s short list with the white house saying president biden will stick to this campaign promise. i m looking forward to making sure there s a black woman on the supreme court to make sure that, in fact, we get every representation. reporter: president biden has nominated eight black women to federal appellate courts so far and one of the top contenders for the supreme court comes from that list. 51-year-old ketanji brown jackson, a harvard law graduate who formerly clerked for justice breyer, nominated last year for the u.s. court of appeals of the d.c. circuit. i am even handedly applying the law in every case. reporter: she won support from all 50 kihei maekawas and three republicans. another front-runner lee and
have heard, is voters who have a deal with themselves that maybe biden can get in there and serve one term and then make way for somebody else, or that biden s going to recover some of what they liked about him in 2012. you do hear just a lot of excuse making by people, and i don t want to say i don t want to demean, there are people who loved him for years, want him to run for president eight years ago, ten years ago, 20 years ago and they re all in. a lot of the support from people who thought based on the polling, and still look at the polling and say if he s up by 15 and warren is up by 8, he s the safe choice. they ve not seen evidence yet though more keeps emerging as a nominee against donald trump he might have some issues. the thing to watch here is not so much the immediate spin from the debate but what the trump campaign and what other kihei maekawas a maekawas democrats are doing with footage from the debate and trying to get in as many inboxes as possible video of biden
