What did he say that was wrong?

Did Biden give the most perfect speech in history that couldn't possibly have been even a tiny bit improved?

Do you think the lead AA professor of AA studies at an Ivy League school might have some ideas about improving this particular situation that Biden or any other politician might learn something from?

Is this a "Bernie leftist" thing or is this an AA thing? (note: I am as far from a Bernie supporter as there is, I'm also an AA, I might suggest to you strongly which way it goes---if you are curious enough to ask).

Do you think prodding someone to go beyond is a bad thing?

Where did he say it was a bad speech, or even not a good speech?

Are you and the rest of the folks in this thread examining what Glaude said critically and with thought, or are you reading a headline about "shade" and reflexively attacking based on that?

How do you think Biden would react? Would he say, no Glaude, I nailed that speech, or will he say, Hey Professor, let's talk, I would like to hear your ideas? Because I'm fairly certain it would be the latter. And if you agree, then again, I ask...why?

Eddie Glaude not only was anti Clinton but was quite vocal about it... Kahuna Jun 2020 #50
why? qazplm135 Jun 2020 #36
