I had to look up "stalking horse".. right, I hadn't heard of that insult before.

President Obama said that "..choosing Biden as his VP was one of the best decisions he ever made.. ". And, your gratuitous insults at this brilliant team is never going to change that. Ever.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden

Calling him a racist is swiftboating...and using his record in deceptive ways is swiftboatig too. Demsrule86 Jul 2019 #11

Kamala Harris specifically said in the debate she didn't believe Biden was racist bigtree Jul 2019 #12

Oh stop. She used a well known rhetorical device in which you state something you then cancel out emmaverybo Jul 2019 #31

This is exactly what she did. Demsrule86 Jul 2019 #47

It is.. and it certainly has not gained her any traction in the long run Thekaspervote Jul 2019 #56

Yes, I remember your anti-Biden biases and your distortions about R B Garr Jul 2019 #27

I've never implied ANY Democrat is racist, your accusation is a weak deflection bigtree Jul 2019 #29

Yes you did imply racism in several comments in posts above Thekaspervote Jul 2019 #60

Pure distortion. Any yes there is a race card. Dream Girl Jul 2019 #28

Booker engaged in broken window policing...so he should stay far away from that subject. Demsrule86 Jul 2019 #50

Biden's vote is decades ago...while Booker did this as Mayor of Newark...and broken window Demsrule86 Jul 2019 #93
