From Jewish World Review
“Biden
claims the NAACP has supported him every time he has run for office. Not so,
says current NAACP president, Derrick Johnson: ‘We want to clarify that the
NAACP is a nonpartisan organization and does not endorse candidates for
political office at any level.’
“Biden's
‘record’ of putting down minorities is also part of his pattern. In 2007,
speaking of Barack Obama, Biden told Jason Horowitz of The New York Observer: ‘I
mean, you got the first mainstream African American who is articulate and
bright and clean and a nice-looking guy, he said. ‘I mean, that's a storybook,
man.’
“Last
August, while speaking to the Asian and Latino Coalition in Des Moines, Iowa,
Biden associated black people with poverty: ‘Poor kids are just as bright and just
as talented as white kids.’
“In
2006 while contemplating a run for president, Biden said, ‘You cannot go to a
7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent.’"
