    They’re not correct at all lol

    Biden has never been a racist. People try to call him racist over a crime bill half-written by black congressional leaders and loudly asked for by the black community.

    Biden has literally always been a stand up guy

    Calling out his busing stance as wrong when it was prescient and he was 100% correct about a generation of black educators losing their jobs is… An interesting take, to say the least.

    Maybe don’t get your news from rags

      Did you not see his response in the primary debates when kamala called out his segregation policies? Rather than admit that it was the wrong decision, he defended it and used the times as an excuse. Just look at his voting record, he’s been very conservative over his career. It doesn’t matter though, people change, and actions speak louder than words. He’s doing good stuff as president and that’s what matters right now.

      Edit: spelled Kamala wrong and I’m embarrassed

        Perhaps rather than an abrupt about-face at 80 years old, you’re simply incorrect about Biden’s “history.”

        He was right about schools. We lost a generation of black educators due to the way desegregation was handled nationwide. Biden accurately commented on this. We could have done better, which is literally what he was arguing for.

        I actually learned of this fact tangentially, through an old episode of Revisionist History. His campaign ignored it because it’s safer to ignore than to trust people to understand nuance. Sound campaign move, but plays to a lie, fundamentally.

      you’re splitting hairs and you’re being disingenuous by ignoring all the other bad shit he’s done. off the top of my head his stances against gay marriage, against gays in the military and permanent-for-life student debt are enough to brand him an ass hat and the fact that he still stands by those decisions proves that he’s not worthy of your vote.

      you should educate yourself

          Yes because that was the one and only time that gay marriage was a topic of conversation lol

            You claimed that he opposes gay marriage. That is false. It is a newsworthy level of false.

                Lmao instead of finding the same document over and over you could just ask me about the electability of a Presidential candidate openly supporting gay marriage in the years just before you were born.

                You could just… You know… Learn

                  lmfao take your own medicine: i’ve provided proof that he’s a 2-faced politician that gives into peer pressure and whatever gets him votes while avoiding anything unpopular and you’re still rejecting it like a maga-ite.

                  secondly: they’re not the same document, it’s merely you actively refusing proof that contradicts your beliefs

                  finally: i’m old enough for doma, dont-ask-dont-tell and student loan debt to fuck me over permanently which is why i’m so salty when ignorant fools point to him as a worthy candidate.

                    Lol pretty hard to be old enough for doma and dadt to fuck you over “permanently” since they don’t exist any more.

                    I get it dude I was in my 20s once too. Purity tests and passion.

                    You’ll get better
