“A black man invented the light bulb, not a white guy named Tom Edison” — Biden
twitter ^ | 09/03'20

Posted on 09/03/2020 6:36:57 PM PDT by dontreadthis

Lewis Latimer, the black inventor Biden’s presumably referring to, is credited with creating an improved filament — as well as successfully testifying that Edison’s patents on the first practical lightbulbs were correctly granted.

I was calling him The Idiot Biden long before he started losing his marbles.

He was never that sharp.

Yes, it is. Try telling the truth and not distorting it.

Sounds kinda Russian to me. Like how the Soviets invented everything. Maybe Biden is on the payroll?

When I was young, I remember that no matter what scientific advance was discussed, the Russians always claimed to have invented it first. Sometimes it was true, usually not.

This isn’t even close. Who writes Biden’s material?

This seems right in line with the old Soviet tendency to say Russians flew before the Wright Brothers, and had the telephone before Alexander Graham Bell, etc.

There’s a video out there claiming these things. Put out by Buzzfeed. It has been thoroughly debunked. But it is still out there.
