    Your right that Biden had a part in screwing African Americans. But what will hurt him the most, is his current racist "you ain't black" comment. Last year, Biden was participating in the DNC debates, and was asked about how to answer the legacy of Slavery. His response was highly racist, and over demeaning. He said that the answer it to have social workers go into the homes of African Americans to tell them how to raise their children, and to turn on radios and record players so their children can hear words.

    On the other hand, President Trump was sued for not renting to African Americans. That was in 1991 while Fred Trump Sr. was the head of Corporation. Since then, I have not seen any credible evidence that President Trump himself is a racist. If you have proof, then offer it. Either ways you need to stop ignoring the racism of you anointed candidate.

    Trump said it was "sad" that the "history and culture" of the United States is "being ripped apart" by the removal of Confederate statues and monuments.

    "Sad to see the history and culture of our great country being ripped apart with the removal of our beautiful statues and monuments," Trump said in a series of tweets. "You can't change history, but you can learn from it."

    wrong. discussing the illness isn’t shaming. maybe dems want people with mental health issues locked away and keep quiet but that isn’t how we do things in the 21st century

    He was speaking in defense of preserving American history and against vandalism and destruction. That was almost 3 years ago. It's quite a stretch to go from "preserving history" to "being in favor of the confederacy" to some extreme view of "being racist", but that's politics today.

    If people feel "harmed and threatened" by a chunk of cement and plaster, move the statues to a museum. Destroying symbols of mistakes in history does not undo the mistakes of history. It just takes the focus off of solving the real problems of the present.

    So now for strictly political reason some progressives are saying the equivalent of some Black Lives Bad? That's odd.

    Trump says ‘we must build upon our heritage, not tear it down' amid Confederate statue removals.

    This was last month, not 3yrs ago.

    What are the possibilities that the Culture War staged by Cultural Marxists backfires and moves people (including elected officials), not necessarily to Kanye, but to Trump? The goal of the organization Black Lives Matter has very little to do with helping the black community.

    Some people are standing up for the majority of black lives, and actually focused on safer, more humane policing. Imagine a world were Democrats and Republicans, blacks and whites, work together as Americans to solve America's problems, instead of letting fringe political activists destroy everything for everyone.

    The article you linked was dated August 2017. Trump did not say anything about "conferates" last month. The Destroyers are tearing down statues of abolitionists and early black statesmen now. They have lost the plot and are showing that this cultural movement is not about black lives. It's about power and control. Marxism never raises people out of poverty; it throws more people into poverty, usually after a bloody revolution, and replaces a civil government with a government run by terror. That doesn't sound like a good "solution" to today's issues.

    I do think that people are finally catching on that these periodic violent riots ALWAYS coincide with Dem Party problems and their desparation to control the nation's narrative. Biden keeps putting his foot in his mouth with Blacks and the Dem Party convention is rapidly approaching and so the Dem Party instantly rediscovers where they have been storing their Race Cards for the last three and a half years and then we have Dem Party controlled cities going up in smoke while Dem Party mayors stand down police departments.

    It's not as if this is the first such politically inspired rioting stunt organized and promoted by the Dem Party's leadership and their operatives. By now, people can detect the rather blatant pattern. The upshot is that more and more the average citizen is looking at the Marxist lead and politically corrupt BLM movement as nothing more at this point than just another propaganda arm of the Dem Party . . . predictable violence included. So yes, Trump is benifiting from the Dem Party organizing the violent destruction of their own cities because people are THINKING about established Dem Party race card oriented patterns.

    I don't disagree he has no chance of beating Trump...but that certainly doesn't give anyone the right to mental health shame him

    Since Biden authored the "crime" legislation which disproportionately imprisoned blacks on minor drug infractions for the last few decades, Joe Biden might just be the man to "put them back in chains". Democrats always blame Republicans of doing what the Democrats are guilty of actually doing in real legislation.

    The only one shaming him is himself. Again proving you did not watch his interview.

    But if you’re wondering. There is no chance in hell I would ever vote for somebody who was diagnosed with bipolar disorder republican democrat or any party.

    Hmm... I wonder where Trump comes into Chance's picture.... Better or worse that Biden?

    I'd bet worse, which means Biden is still the better choice for America between the 2 real candidates

    BTW, I hear Billie Joe Armstrong is now running for President too... Much cooler music than Kanye, so he's got my vote

    Kanye West files new FEC documents for 2020 presidential bid

    Critically acclaimed rap artist Kanye West filed a second set of documents Thursday with the Federal Commissions Election, proving that his 2020 presidential run is still on course.

    West filed a Statement of Candidacy with the FEC, showing that he has raised at least $5,000 for his campaign, TMZ reported.

    The second set of paperwork, which grants him official candidacy status, lists his party as "BDY" — an abbreviated from of "Birthday Party" — and his home as Cody, Wyoming, where he and his wife Kim Kardashian own a property worth $14 million.

    I recall or read about a convention years and years ago someone introduced the VP choice at their convention. Yet I do not remember which convention it was.
