    I don't care. When you start imagining people having sex with their fathers, I've got to assume that you've had sex with your father. It's perfectly fair. You should have taken your perverted ideas somewhere else. And it wasn't a personal attack. I just think you need to seek therapy.

    You'll have to call the majority of the members of the Congressional Black Caucus, at the time, racist against blacks then. They supported it and Biden likely got caught up in the popular sentiment of the times. Alot of blacks were concerned about violence due to the crack epidemic.

    So I can expect you will not attack Trump for asinine statements as a justification to vote for Biden and admit that Biden is NOT the unity candidate who will bring us all together as he claims, he is quite divisive won't you say?

    Tell that to Trump. The low UE rate started under Pres. Obama in 2012,

    Not if he keeps making asinine statements, but then I think of the alternative so you might be right.

    The rate under obama was due to people dropping out of the workforce all together.

    You are correct. That was a major oversight by me. But again, what did Clinton not do that you feel he should have. Seems like the major players in that were arrested.

    And what makes a community? The infrastructure? Do you prefer "Hispanic?" Or would you like me to name all of the Latin Americans and where they all came from?

    Yes, just like there are die hard Trump fans who excuse Trump's own gaffes, Black voters who have been Democrats for generations will over look this latest racist gaffe. If I were Black I would not be voting for either candidate.

    Yes both the right and left have placed messiah like devotion on their candidates. The US Dems rely on the Black vote but their only interest is to get their vote and while they trust their support, they are often not reliable about getting to the polls.

    COVID is a great excuse for mail in votes which will they think increase Black participation. Too dangerous to vote but Democrats will admire BLM protests. (Too dangerous politically to not support) which of course undermines the danger element but they figure people won’t see the disconnect which is probably true.

    Othing wrong with Latino but it's not a race so if Old Uncle Joe is to be charged with racism then make sure what he said is actually racist. The way he said it was stupid and careless but haven't we had enough of fake racism accusations?

    Because Trump was so bad for blacks with record low black unemployment and record high black home ownership?

    So we should just turn the other cheek and laugh when Trump comes out and makes racist and asinine comments, is that what you want?

    It's pretty clear Biden lumped all Blacks into one category as in all Blacks are not different from each other. If that is how he sees Black folks then it is a racist statement because people with a little common sense know that is not true. Black folks have migrated to the US from all over the world. So lets count both the slaves who were forced into slavery and brought to the US and Blacks who came to the US since 1865 looking for a better way of life.
