    "I still remember my first month on the street," Booker said, referring to the time in 1995 when he moved to a dangerous neighborhood in Newark. "I walked up to this charismatic black guy my age called T-Bone, who was one of the drug lords. I just said, 'Yo, man, wha's up?' And he leaped in front of me, looked me right in the eye and said, 'Who the blank do you think you are? If you ever so much as look at me again, I'm going to put a cap in your ass.'"

    I’m a terrible person I guess because that seems like a nice thing to say.

    "Poor people can talk just as good as white people."

    - Joe Biden, probably

    Is he going to bring his whipped cream? LOL

    Yang for President. That is so funny it should be an SNL skit instead of real life.

    Perhaps Biden and Cornpop could have challenged them to an IQ test followed by some pushups and a little girl hair sniffing contest.

    If a person of color is allowed to just be part of the debate even though that person of color does not qualify that is Affirmative Action run wild.
    A good American conservative or should I say a real American conservative should be against Afirmative Action because Afirmative Action is a form of reverse racism.

    Only those candidates who qualify by their own right should be allowed in the debate.

    Even Justice Thomas does not agree with Afirmative Action

    And Biden once said the same about Obama. This is some deeply rooted stuff.

    Dumb comment by Bloomberg and no Bloomberg and Booker don't stand a chance. Get ready for President Biden.

    You mean racist comment by Bloomberg and Get Ready for Trump.

    I get real tired of people assuming things by race and skin tone-don't you?
