Joe Biden said he will select a black woman for VP.?

Would that make Kamala Harris an Affirmative Action choice by specifically naming a race and gender before choosing the person?

Update:

Okay, let me rephrase that: By saying "I'm only going to pick a woman." He excluded 159.4 million men right out of the gate. Does that appear to be pandering rather than truly wanting the best person for the job? I'm not saying she isn't capable, I'm asking if you're okay with excluding 159 million people based on gender alone.
