In the 1970s, Biden was asked about the legacy of slavery. He responded, “I don’t feel responsible for the sins of my father and grandfather. I feel responsible for what the situation is today, for the sins of my own generation, and I’ll be damned if I feel responsible to pay for what happened 300 years ago.”And, the media will give him a pass, as they always do.At the Sept. 12, 2019 Democratic debate, he was asked to clarify his statement. Biden launched into a confusing series of sentence fragments and changes of focus that mentioned but did not explain redlining banks, tripling the amount of money to poor Title I schools, raising salaries for teachers, bringing in social workers to deal with bad parenting (an oft-repeated placement of blame many parents are tired of hearing), and notably, playing their record player at night. Even pro-Democrat analysts were amazed at the bizarre nature of Biden’s answer.
Let’s face it. . .he probably won’t be the candidate in November. I think someone is waiting in the wings ready to rescue the party. The rioters should be looting his house for his past statements.
