I have yet to figure out why to many people - usually liberals - often times when evaluating someone for a position, it is much more important to focus on the race or gender of a person than on their qualifications.
I have seen it many times, in particular when people talk about the makeup of public safety agencies, or in sports leagues. We need more women, more blacks, more whatever - basically, anybody but white males. That is much more important than the person's qualifications.
Even though it is illegal to discriminate against people based on their race, gender, and other characteristics, for some reason that doesn't stop people from using that as a criteria.
