‘The Bigotry Of Low Expectations’: Horace Cooper Dismisses Biden’s Claim That Black People Can’t Hire Lawyers, Accountants

Project 21 Chairman Horace Cooper said Saturday that President Joe Biden is guilty of “the bigotry of low expectations” by claiming black people can’t hire lawyers or accountants and be successful entrepreneurs.

Biden made the remarks Tuesday during a speech to mark the centennial of the 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre.

“I’m black. I’m a lawyer. I have a cousin who’s an accountant,” Cooper said on Fox News’ “Watters’ World.”

“I actually don’t understand where the president is going other than denigrating people. His idea appears to be what they refer to often as the bigotry of low expectations,” Cooper continued.

“It’s really disappointing that he doesn’t see his role as inspirer-in-chief instead of denigrator-in-chief,” he said.

Cooper insisted that Biden had an opportunity during his speech to inspire black people but instead he chose to “talk down to them and you excuse them and take away a lot of the incentive and initiative.” The Project 21 chairman suggested Biden should have said: “This is the land, a place of possibility, black, white and brown; we’re going to learn the lessons of bad incidents that have happened in our past and come together to do better.”

Typical mind set of the demonazi liberal elites. Convince a certain segment that there is NO WAY they can possibly survive withou their assistance. And a LOT of folks buy that idea.

To sum up — Biden is a racist.

Did he warn the audience they’d be put back in chains?

To Biden and the Democrat party black Americans can't help themselves and they are enslaved to them for their thoughts and behavior. Disgusting. And America's culture doesn't have a problem with this and they have the audacity to scream black lives matter.

In one of the painful ironies of history, a man who got noticed in politics by getting a crime bill through the Senate that needlessly put a generation of young black men in prison for minor drug crimes, used black votes (whether real or fake) to climb the greasy pole to the Oval Office.

So it’s clear that the Rat Party’s attitude toward blacks is the same today that it was 60 years ago.

So according to Biden - would Whyte (sic) people be unable to commit a carjacking?
I am still bowled over by the bald-faced bigotry in which the left engages. And most RINOs and all the media only allow it to continue.

Another fugitive from the Democrat Plantation, Hard to believe they let someone that doesn’t sit on the Democrat porch speak his mind. I suspect he will be cancelled post haste for stepping off the porch.

Hey the dems say black people can’t show id to vote, its too hard to get, and too big of a burden for them to acquire.

Even if on the way to the polling place they rented a UHaul truck, had an initial visit with a medical specialist and began a controlled substance prescription at a pharmacy.

But at the polling place: "What? Me? But that's voter suppression. I can't be forced to show my ID. You'll be on the nightly news for this."

Lucky they don't have VHS and DVD rental places, too.

"Hey, buddy, take my word for it that it's me. Don't I look honest to you? I'll return all six DVDs on time."

For a long time (before VP) and now he places all ethnic groups in neat categories and keeps them there. The poor black children are practically as smart as white children and excited watching the hairs on Biden’s legs stand out in water at a pool.

AP story: When pressed by Errol Barnett of CBS News on whether he’d taken a cognitive test, Biden responded that the question was akin to asking the black reporter if he would take a drug test to see if “you’re taking cocaine or not? ... Are you a junkie?” August 7, 2020.

The actual quote was "the soft bigotry of low expectations."

Joe Biden also said....that certain de-segregation policies would cause his children to grow up ‘in a Racial Jungle.’
