During a portion of an interview with NBC aired on Thursday’s broadcast of “NBC Nightly News,” President Joe Biden responded to Sen. Tim Scott’s (R-SC) speech on Wednesday and stated that while he doesn’t think the American people are racist, “after 400 years, African Americans have been left in a position where they are so far behind the eight ball in terms of education and health, in terms of opportunity.”
Host Craig Melvin asked, “He said among other things, America isn’t racist. Is it?”
Biden responded, “No, I don’t think the American people are racist. But I think after 400 years, African Americans have been left in a position where they are so far behind the eight ball in terms of education and health, in terms of opportunity.”
He also stated, “I think the overhang from all of the Jim Crow and before that slavery has had a cost and we have to deal with it.”

And you, jb, have been around for the last 40 something years with ZERO help for minorities...which is 10% of your 400 year fantasy grievance...
Another propaganda talking-point for the race-hustlers in order to keep the Democrat plantation blacks into believing they are victims of oppression and stolen opportunity.
Blacks are brainwashed by the DNC that they need the Democratic Party and the promise of perpetual dependency on government for the next 1000 years until the black man achieves justice and equality. It’s the only party that cares about the blacks and their vote every 2 years! The Republicans don’t care about black lives... they only care about the dead black children and babies!
Republicans are mean hateful racists and want the black-man enslaved. Republicans want to make it harder to game the welfare system which will take needed money away from black communities that spend it at Taco Bell, KFC, McDonald’s, Pizza Hut, 7-11’s and buy life dependent drugs! Republicans also want to de-fund planned parenthood that is a necessary service to every black community! Without it would mean keeping the black women at home and desperate without hope to live normal lives burning neighborhoods down, rioting, stealing and selling drugs. Being forced into the responsibility of raising children with a father would ENSLAVE the blacks, and no longer give them hope and opportunity for the American dream of getting that welfare check!
Johnson’s “Great Society” killed our space program too.
We would have had a base on the moon by now.
The only way to close that gap is for them to move somewhere cold and wait 10,000 years.
What a freaking doofus! And the media pukes crucified Trump 24/7 for less than the constant garbage and stupidity flowing out of this cheaters mouth! Everyday he spews stupidity Our enemies get stronger! All I can say is China is going to kick our butts to kingdom come! Screwed, indeed! 😢
Not really. People coming here from The Bahamas are mystified by what they see.
In 1860 not a single Republican owned slaves.
After 400 years... meanwhile after just a few years of being here vietnamese were successful.
Black 8-Balls Matter
The actual African immigrants are the “talented 10th”, the outliers on the Bell Curve. Europeans and East Asians owe their higher avg IQ to Cold Winter Theory.
Not because of Whitey. So don’t use that as an excuse to pass reparations.
Read post #9. Inescapable.
Thanks to the rat plantation owners the black race cant see because they don’t want to see
It is easier to blame things that happened over 150 years ago for cultural issues that currently exist.
Funny how the Vietnamese boat people arrived with nothing, not even speaking English, and produced valedictorians within a generation.
“Besides, I occasionally just rent an Explorer, BMW or Mercedes for a weekend.”
Yep.
The best vehicle to drive?: Someone else’s...
we never had “functional families”, we had all kinds of dysfunctional families. That is not the answer. The answer is to teach people to read and to add and to work their butts off.
Thats because democrats run the cities where they live....
Isn’t “behind the eight ball” considered racist?
This is spot on. Look at the several prominent immigrant minorities in this country who came with nothing and are doing well today. May not be upper class, but far from poverty.
