Biden Has Claimed Several Times He Was Arrested In South Africa While Trying To Visit Nelson Mandela

Former Vice President Joe Biden has taken to describing his supposed arrest in South Africa at least three times in the past two weeks as he speaks to voters and seeks the Democratic presidential nomination.

Biden has been claiming that he was arrested in the 1970s by South African authorities while he sought to visit Nelson Mandela in prison, The New York Times reported Friday.

“This day, 30 years ago, Nelson Mandela walked out of prison and entered into discussions about apartheid,” Biden told supporters in South Carolina last week, according to the Times. “I had the great honor of meeting him. I had the great honor of being arrested with our U.N. ambassador on the streets of Soweto trying to get to see him on Robbens Island.”

Biden would have been a Democratic senator from Delaware at that time and any arrest would probably have been noted in the U.S. media, but the Times did not find any relevant references in its archives.

"Yes I remember Joe and I planned to jail break Mr Nelson Mandela from jail. However, unknown to us, we were followed by none other than Cornpop who pulled a gun on us. Joe and I thought we were done for, when Joe suddenly dropped his pants. The shimmering hairs from his legs hypnotized Cornpop who felt the need to touch them. It was that time I gave Cornpop a karate chop and was able to disarm him. With the gun, we were able to hold the jail guard at bay and free Mandela, thus liberating him and stopping Apparte' .Yes quite!"

Actually, making up stories like this is a sign of alzheimer’s or some other form of senile dementia. We had a family friend who would come to visit & tell us the most outrageous stories, like riding a bike the length of the Great Wall of China. The stories were great fun & he really believed he’d done those things. But he was definitely not living in the real world.

Biden is obviously not well. His family, friends and backers need to sit him down and explain to him that he needs to end his increasingly unrealistic campaign and focus on managing his mental well-being for the remainder of his life.

And Hillary was named after Sir Edmund Hillary.

And she parlayed a $1000 investment into $100,000 on cattle futures by smart investing.

And Bill Clinton remembers black churches being burned in Arkansas during his youth.
