These days, and I do mean these days, Joe is running after the black vote with a vengeance. After a lifetime of making racist statements, last weekend he gave the commencement address at Morehouse College, a historically black institution. His speech included the following unfortunate statement: "Many of you graduates don’t know me, but check my record, you’ll know what I’m saying I mean from my gut."
So I guess this was from his gut: In 2007, then-Sen. Biden said about then-Sen. Barack Obama: “I mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
My favorite part of that quote is when he says "that's a storybook, man." As in it must be fiction, it can't possibly be real. But wait, there's more from the gut: In May of 2020 he told a group of black students, "If you have a problem figuring out whether you're for me or Trump, then you ain't black." (Everyone knows that blacks have poor grammar.)
And I guess it was also from his gut when in August 2020, he told a gathering of black and Hispanic journalists: “Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes about different things.” (All blacks think alike, ya know?)
The same day he was at Morehouse College, he later attended a dinner of the Detroit chapter of the NAACP and told the crowd of 4,600 attendees that their organization is the first one he ever joined. (Ha, ha!) He also asked them if Trump won a second term, "Who do you think he'll put on the Supreme Court? You think he'll put anybody who has a brain?" So Brett Kavanaugh, Neil Gorsuch and Amy Coney Barrett are all brainless according to Joe, who by the way thinks Kamala Harris is doing a brilliant job.
Discuss.
