I believe Joe Biden's remarks were purposely taken out of context to gain political points. That's an easy one. She definitely played the race card.

Saying she "played the race card" is reductive of Sen Harris' experience a black girl/woman at the time busing was an issue and is offensive. A black person talking about race and how it's impacted them isn't "playing the race card."

Your opinion on this could be suggestive of someone who does not believe black voters can make an intelligent decision regarding who they believe will better serve them.

In no way shape or form is that what I'm suggesting. I'm mixed race, one of which is AA. So again, completely offensive.

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