Former Vice President Joe Biden committed Saturday to ending the use of standardized testing in public schools if hes elected president in 2020.
Biden made the commitment after a questioner at MSNBCs Public Education Forum 2020 said standardized testing is rooted in a history of racism and eugenics and urged him to oppose their use in public schools.
Teaching has changed drastically over the last 10 to 20 years. Instead of being allowed to use their expertise to develop engaging curricula thats culturally responsive, teachers are often forced to use a scripted curriculum that rushes children through without giving them enough time to really understand the material, the questioner said.
She added: Given that standardized testing is rooted in a history of racism and eugenics, if you are elected president, will you commit to ending the use of standardizing testing in public schools?
Yes, Biden answered. As one of my friends and black pastors Ive spent a lot of time with, Rev. Herring, would say: Youre preaching to the choir, kid. OK?

Slow Joe is still lighting fast in pandering.
Celebrate mediocrity!
He think you gotta keep the blacks uneducated and more controllable.
Slow Joe pandering to the low info voter crowd. Apparently because minds arent a terrible thing to waste.
Yeah. You wouldnt want to learn anything about the culture that provides you tremendous opportunity otherwise you might not fall for these political flim flam men.
THIS kind of crap is one reason black kids fail in school.
Test reflect what a kid has learned. If they fail the test it means they have to study more... that’s NOT racist.
Love the clip! Santa Claus definitely isnt buying any of it. Way to go Ol Saint Nick!
Biden will not be president so he cant keep this promise and is doomed to remain in 3rd grade forever.

Uncle Joe is not as dumb as he looks. He much dumber than that.
Joe doesn’t want to test the roaches then?
How will he know if the roaches are smart enough to play with is leg hair?
A good test can also measure reasoning ability. Lower scoring here is not racist, just a reflection of reality. Matching education to abilities is a good idea.
Didn’t Joe himself graduate 86th out of a class of 95?
