A day after California Sen. Kamala Harris went on the offensive against Joe Biden about race at the Democratic debate, Cory Booker similarly hit back at racial comments made by the former vice president.
While attempting to defend his record on civil rights in Chicago Friday, the 76-year-old Biden waded into more controversy with a remark he made about hoodies.
“We've got to recognize that kid wearing a hoodie may very well be the next poet laureate and not a gangbanger,” Biden told the crowd.
Booker, a 50-year-old senator from New Jersey, hit back at the comments over Twitter. He said the way Biden talks about race is not constructive.
“This isn’t about a hoodie. It’s about a culture that sees a problem with a kid wearing a hoodie in the first place. Our nominee needs to have the language to talk about race in a far more constructive way,” Booker said.

Oh?
Yep, backpacks and bookbags that have never contained a book. Maybe a magazine or two . . .
Looks like the Black or sort of Black Democrats running for POTUS are all in attacking the Elderly White Guy.
Hope Biden brings his Wife’s Shotgun to the next Debate. He might need it.
Of course, it is used for theft. Hoodies and backpacks.
“We've got to recognize that kid wearing a hoodie may very well be the next poet laureate and not a gangbanger,” Biden told the crowd.
Okay, so, he was wrong -- the hoodie-wearing thug is never going to be a poet laureate.
A Harris/Booker team would be a hoot, 49 state landslide for Trump.
LOL - ummm you might have missed Bookers point...
Biden was obama’s mascot.
Obama kept Biden on a string to play Biden as a robot puppet whenever Obama wanted to be amused by a dummy moron!!!
I wear a hoodie.
Biden’s not getting anywhere near my hair.
Is Booker starting a race war or what?
Booger should just get back to his men’s room activities
There’s going to be a Democratic debate towards the end, where all they will do is accuse each other of being racists.
Silly me...
A 'hoodie' functions as a mask for criminals... anyone see crime surveillance tapes? The black community is overrun with criminals... and to see it - to notice reality - is considered 'racist' by men like Booker.
