I guess it must not violate the law as the last president vowed that men would be ineligible and he would only select a woman: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/03/15/politics/joe-biden-woman-...

Is that comparable though? It's not an open job position with requirements listed that anybody can apply for. I don't know how that works in the US, but according to wikipedia the president can nominate a person and a majority vote in both houses of congress can confirm that. It's not like the best candidate wins...this is politics...
