Discussing Joe Biden

From American Thinker columnists:

Biden unwittingly reveals the Democratic Party's scope of racism . . . "We always view Democrats as the essence of 'wokeness,' now. But what we are seeing is the delineation of the main part of the Democratic Party, the segregationists and racists, and the other part, the hippie McGovernite utopian socialists. These days, the McGovernites rule the roost. But even they aren't colorblind. Their fascination with counting skin color as a criteria for voting for someone or counting black faces in groups with affirmative action in mind is marketed as being pro-Black. But actually, it's just another variety of the Dixiecrat racism. It's the same skin-obsession that the segregationists had in mind, just in a different form.
"Even I was surprised at how much of the Democratic Party has been neck-deep in racism until Joe Biden started praising his friends. But Biden himself is old enough to be the story of the Democratic Party. And his gaffes on this merit a closer look at just who the Democrats are and what they stand for." . . .

Buttigieg vs. Biden on pandering to the crazy base  . . . "Buttigieg has tarnished the reputation of the officer involved as well as police officers nationally by associating the incident with systemic racism.  There is no evidence yet that this shooting was racially -motivated, but Buttigieg is trying to harness the public outrage among the black community to save face during a contentious Democratic primary." . . .

Joe Biden can’t keep his story straight  . . . "This story is yet another nail in the coffin of Biden’s campaign. He simply cannot withstand the sort of close scrutiny a presidential candidate is subjected to. That’s why his previous runs at the presidency failed.  
"The basic problem is that Biden is not smart enough yet loves to talk.  He says what he thinks will ingratiate hiself with the audience he faces. " . . .
"But on a national scale, Biden’s already occupied the only office he was qualified for, the Vice Presidency. I firmly believe that he was chosen a Barack Obama’s running mate because he was no threat to the top of the ticket as a rival and offered the image of a veteran establishment figure to take some of the rawness off of a candidate who had served only part of one term as a senator before going for the Oval Office. ". . .
