Why to Alrican Americans accept Biden's appalling record of racist comments?

[lewisnotmiller]

I'll try and stick to the topic.
Why do you think African-Americans accept Biden's 'appalling record of racist comments'?
I would imagine in truth different African Americans have different opinions about it, but if I accept your premise for a moment, I would suppose they see him as the lesser of two evils?
Why else would they?

I would rather you elaborate because I really am trying to soften the sharp edges of my posts.

I've nothing new to cover.

You should start participating in dialogue. And you should start giving an honest opinion instead of running for the hills to remain 'in the middle.' Replace that rudder already, even though I understand why you do what you do. $$

You should start participating in dialogue.

Thank you for the kind advice.
But at some point the dialogue ends.
To recognize & acknowledge this saves time.
(I don't get paid for covering well trodden ground.)

It appears Biden has a history of problematic statements.

Actually, what many of us are talking about is the hypocrisy of Trump supporters complaining that Trump's current political opponent is racist.
Hypocrisy.

That's what this thread is about.

Trump is not racist

One of the best responses to the violence was by the Mayor of Atlanta and Bernice King.

Trump is not racist.

Despite some racist things he's said, I honestly don't think he is particularly racist either. I don't think he cares much about anything but wealth, power, sex, and fame.

But his base does include a large number of white racists. He'll pander to them to get more of what he really values, regardless of the consequences to the rest of us.

I don't think he's any more racist than Christian, but he is a master manipulator. He'll say anything in pursuit of his own self interest.

Trump is not racist

So you don't call statements he's made in the past to be racist? I've got a list, ready?
