Racism

In recent speeches Biden has declared that racism is systemic as if this all happened during the Trump years and the press has gone along with him. Taking a trip down memory lane to examine Biden's 47 years in Washington including his 8 years as VP under Obama exposes a different picture. Biden called school busing "the most racist concept you can come up with". The NAACP called Biden’s proposal “an anti-black amendment.” He began calling the 1994 crime bill the Biden Crime Bill. This bill led to mass incarcerations of Blacks and he described Black felons as predators, too sociopathic to rehabilitate. He often voted with his fellow senator Jesse Helms and eulogized Senator Robert Byrd who was head of the Klan. Biden said of 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. Biden said of Indians,“In Delaware, the largest growth of population is Indian Americans, moving from India,” Biden says. “You cannot go to a 7-11 or a Dunkin’ Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I’m not joking.” Recently Biden said, take a look at my record. If you don't vote for me, you ain't Black. Trump on the other hand reversed the harmful Biden Crime Bill with his First Step Act, increased funding for Black universities, government financed opportunity zones in the inner cities, brought Black unemployment to the lowest levels in history and yet Trump is called the racist president. Spend just a little time evaluating Trump's policies instead of his personality.
