I don’t want Abrams to do it unless Biden unequivocally denounces his legislation from the 90’s and presents real policy to change what he did. I don’t want her used as a shield from his crappy anti-black rhetoric and policies.
His anti-black policies must have been the reason Obama picked him and became a close friend of his...
To RFKFan68 :
Exactly what "anti-black rhetoric and polices" are you talking about?
And why did Obama miss these anti-black policies, but yet you see/saw them?
(Serious question. Help me understand your opinion/position on this.)
Hi! Joe Biden was at the forefront of the War on Drugs. Most of the people on this board are very smart and knowledgeable about history yet seem to forget their favorite politicians creating laws that created racial disparities in the prison industrial complex.

Obama deciding to put him on his ticket for political reasons and when the full weight of Biden’s policies and their impact had not yet entered mainstream discourse doesn’t change what he did.
Most voters are low info. And he very well may win the black vote. But he’s trash and I’m not here for him.
