The bulk of the Democrat presidential candidates took the day off from calling Republicans racist. Yesterday, they were calling Joe Biden, the Democrat front runner a racist. In a fund raising session, Biden had pointed out how he had worked well with two Democrat senators who were prominent opponents of civil rights legislation and desegregation. That was it; Biden had crossed the line and become a racist. Cory Booker and Kamala Harris demanded Biden apologize for his shameful and hurtful rhetoric. Imagine cooperating with a fellow senator to get something done! How outrageous (or at least that is how the attack goes.) It was idiotic to say the least.
The funny thing, though, is that Biden actually fought school desegregation in Delaware in the 1970s. People like Booker and Harris don't talk about that because it shows how Democrats didn't support the black community then. Indeed, using actual history might hurt the Democrat cause with that community. So they attack Biden for a silly remark.
