Joe Biden's Latest 'Racist' Comment Is Low Even for Him
Sarah Arnold


President Joe Biden made an eyebrow-raising comment about his former boss, President Barack Obama.

During a prominent dinner with Kenyan President William Ruto and First Lady Rachel Ruto, Biden appeared to pull out the race card, leaving the audience confused.

The 81-year-old president made a puzzling remark about Obama, saying ““Jill and I are honored to have you here and we’re representing… including many members of the African diaspora. One just left — Barack…”

This is not the first time Biden has been accused of making racist remarks.

The Heritage Foundation claimed the president has a history of getting away with making racist comments.

   
--- Quote ---Joe Biden has a decades-long habit of making overtly racist remarks, taking discriminatory positions and cavorting with known racists—things that would get anyone to his political right tossed out of polite society. But being on the left must make it okay.

    In 2007, he referred to Barack Obama as “the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean.” In 2006, he said, “You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.” Way back in 1977, he said that forced busing to desegregate schools would cause his children to “grow up in a racial jungle.

    Put these words into Mitch McConnell’s mouth and try to envision how long he’d be allowed to remain in the Senate, let alone in a leadership position. It does not take much effort to imagine the media’s reaction if Donald Trump had mangled so many racial issues in one press conference. Via the Heritage Foundation.

Actually... in the above statement... ol' white joe was entirely correct...

PeteS in CA:
"African Diaspora" is a term in common use for the slave trade's dispersal of black slaves from Brazil through the Caribbean north to British colonies in what is now the US East Coast. The term is not, of itself, racist or race-baiting. There probably was a race-baiting line in LIEden's speech at that point, but he muffed it. Maybe it was too obscure and convoluted, maybe LIEden messed up. :shrug:
