Joe Biden addresses African American ‘diversity’ gaffe
New York Post ^ | 8/6/2020 | Vincent Barone

Posted on 08/06/2020 7:06:32 PM PDT by marcusmaximus

Democratic nominee Joe Biden on Thursday attempted to clarify comments he made earlier in the day suggesting that the African American population is not as “diverse” as the Latino community.

“In no way did I mean to suggest the African American community is a monolith—not by identity, not on issues, not at all,” Biden tweeted Thursday night.

Well his staff tweeted a correction and that is good enough for me!

He helped destroy healthcare while calling it "a big $#%&## deal", cheered for homosexual marriage, cheered for transgender bathrooms, brought no jobs, helped the Kenyan Usurper, supported the rioters and has bad-mouthed the President for 3.5+ years. So...that's why...this.

Joe didn’t write the clarification, his handlers did. Blacks vote in lockstep, over 90%, in support of the Dems. Hispanics 75% Dem support. It is all relative.

FIRST, I have to look up verboten.

SECOND, it’s because we are the REAL liberals.

Open minded in our thinking with the exception of our core values, which include being against abortion and believing the constitution means what it says.

I have been on the opposite side of Trump maybe half a dozen times on certain issues.

That means nothing. I love the guy. But I learned from the bush years to NEVER again close my eyes so tight that i can’t see anything.

God bless Trump and God bless everyone on FR.

You can be somewhat neutral on abortion and still get by here. If anyone was posting planned parenthood propaganda this is the wrong place and should be banned. There is no neutrality over there, it’s all or nothing. FR used to be much more that way awhile ago, but it’s mellowed with age :)

Like a fine wine :)

I don’t put on brass knuckles if someone has a different view on abortion.

God’s a MUCH better judge than me and he will decide for all of us one day.

On that note, I have seen a few posts by folks here that don’t believe in God.

Again, if they don’t speak ill of Christianity and Judaism you are right, they are likely safe.

The quite long time in my life when I didn’t believe in God, I was still conservative.

Taxes, too many regulations, wanting to make all of our decisions for us...those are more than good enough reasons to be conservative and against dems.

And plenty more :)

I was raised non-religious. Never really thought about it until my 30s, then I thought I’d turn Jewish. Turns out I got baptized by later 30s, but I never go to church. To me God is not about rituals and socializing, although many think it’s about both or one or the other. I’m happy with my decisions.

Not my business but thanks for sharing

That statement could bring you heat from a number of folks here.

A number of things I have said brought down tremendous wrath.

I’m ok with that.

To thine own self be true.

Good words to live by :)

buona notte

Humans are much more likely to accidentally tell the truth than they are to lie. They didn’t pull the phrase “cracked under pressure” out of a sphincter.

Most Black Americans are mixed-race in one way or another

Mixed race is not the same as white Hispanic or black Hispanic, or Asian Hispanic. Even the mixed blacks call themselves blacks, like Obama.

By now, through the course of human history around the world, one could find that, most people have a mix in their genetic material which indicates part everything. But, that does not mean that every person is black or Hispanic or white, or Asian.

As Trump repeatedly tells us Biden does not tweet anything. His staff does all of his tweeting.

Biden knows that he can disparage the black community because most blacks are of low IQ and are poorly educated. Blacks will vote Democrat no matter what the Democrats say about them because they are perpetually on the plantation and jump when the Democrats say frog. It is what they do. Biden has nothing to worry about losing the black vote.
