Former Vice President Joe Biden on Thursday emphatically defended his ties to the African-American community — telling a popular black radio personality that he “ain’t black” if he was still weighing whether to support Biden or President Donald Trump in November’s general election.
The remarks from the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee came during an at-times contentious interview on “The Breakfast Club” that aired Friday morning, during which co-host Charlamagne tha God challenged Biden over his decades-long record on racial issues and current contemplation of a black, female running mate.
“I’m not acknowledging anybody who is being considered, but I guarantee you, there are multiple black women being considered. Multiple,” Biden said of his search process for a vice presidential nominee.
It was then that an aide to the Biden campaign could be heard interjecting into the conversation, attempting to cut short the interview. “Thank you so much. That’s really our time. I apologize,” the aide said.
“You can't do that to black media!” Charlamagne retored.
“I do that to white media and black media because my wife has to go on at 6 o’clock,” Biden shot back, apparently referring to a subsequent media appearance by Dr. Jill Biden, before adding: “Uh oh. I’m in trouble.”

Can anything be covered or spoke about today without black this or black that. Even the bad ass virus making its way across the world. Hits black community harder. But nothing much said about a black coward punching on elderly defenseless people, or a black shooting up a graveyard killing again elderly. I don’t really care what flavor the SOB is. Just carry on without the f’n color.
ReplyDeleteProves Biden is racist by his comment
ReplyDeleteAs a proud Anglo Saxon I will not be voting for Biden.
ReplyDeleteHis ties to the black community end with the servants in his mansions.
ReplyDeleteEver notice how white Democrats talk down to blacks when trying to get their votes? Hillary was a champ at it, but she fooled very few. "And you know what I mean."
ReplyDeleteSuper Predators was the term she used
DeleteThe Democrats have nothing to offer except paltry giveaways that "keep blacks in their places" (I.e., poor, uneducated, hungry and jobless), while pushing the narrative that the party is their savior.
ReplyDeleteU can't make this sh*t up. Wow
ReplyDeleteBiden was talking about his buddy Popcorn or Corny Pop or Pop goes the weasel being a good friend after he beat him up.
ReplyDeleteRemember Democrats were the KKK !!! Learn some HISTORY !!!
ReplyDeleteGuess Biden Ain't White either !!! LOL
ReplyDelete3:18 The blacks are the ones that won't keep their surroundings clean, that's why the kid play amid rat feces, urine, and trash
ReplyDeleteIf you cannot open your mouth without incoherent babble pouring out of it and/or just flat sticking your foot in it "You ain't presidential material".
ReplyDeleteOk, Biden did not mean that the way it came out and he apologized. Go ahead vote for Trump. He's so MUCH better! He always apologizes for his many racist remarks. RIGHT?
