Obama Responds To Biden

“I didn’t take Senator Biden’s comments personally, but obviously they were historically inaccurate. African-American presidential candidates like Jesse Jackson, Shirley Chisholm, Carol Moseley Braun and Al Sharpton gave a voice to many important issues through their campaigns, and no one would call them inarticulate.”

Right on Obama! It's overdue that Senator Biden surpasses his 1950s perspective. His comments about African Americans being unclean, inarticulate, not bright, etc... is beyond unacceptable. Because of this, he is not fit for the White House. We are advocates for a colorblind society, concluding the vision and dream of Martin Luther King Jr.
