You do know that this story has been verified, right OKNancy Sep 2019 #1

There you go, posting the truth revmclaren Sep 2019 #2

Anyone have a real name for "corn pop"? bluewater Sep 2019 #3

Sadly, I heard that Corn Pop passed away. The latest is Kind of Blue Sep 2019 #4

So "Corn Pop" was a "tiny, smack-talking teenager'? Hmmm. bluewater Sep 2019 #5

Good Lord, this thread yesterday retelling Biden's "story" Kind of Blue Sep 2019 #6

Corn Pop was just a "tiny, smack-talking teenager" who loved to prank the white lifeguard. bluewater Sep 2019 #7

Yeah, I'm laughing at Harriot's take because I know once I stop Kind of Blue Sep 2019 #18

The part about "wrapping a chain around his arm" made no sense to me. cwydro Sep 2019 #25

The Twitter-sphere is on fire over this... too funny!! But a good distraction from InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #89

That whole thread is hilarious. Autumn Sep 2019 #22

Genius! Kind of Blue Sep 2019 #24

Thank you. I needed a laugh desperately. That thread dewsgirl Sep 2019 #131

You're welcome, dewsgirl! Kind of Blue Sep 2019 #146

True or not, it takes Joe's "record player" comments about raising children out of the headlines InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #87

Cornpop died in 2016 at the age of 73, The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #106

Corn Pop was a gang leader. creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #123

I hear Corn Pop was black too. bluewater Sep 2019 #125

He was a gang leader creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #127

You mean Biden's friend, Mouse Smith, former head of the Delaware NAACP? bluewater Sep 2019 #129

I dunno' creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #132

I just checked your links creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #134

He was a "gang" leader Cuthbert Allgood Sep 2019 #133

Its all confirmed creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #136

Was Corn Pop the leader of the Sharks or the Jets? Cuthbert Allgood Sep 2019 #137

I think they were called the Romans. creeksneakers2 Sep 2019 #142

Yes, and Smith confirms that Corn Pop was a gang member and that Biden was told by highplainsdem Sep 2019 #8

Corn Pop was a "tiny, smack talking teenager" bluewater Sep 2019 #9

What part of "gang member" and "cut" don't you understand? highplainsdem Sep 2019 #10

perpetuating the stereotype that black children are dangerous and threatening is inexcusable. bluewater Sep 2019 #12

The persom who said Corn Pop was a member of the Romans is the former head of the Delaware NAACP. highplainsdem Sep 2019 #15

Mouse Smith is 6 years younger than Biden, so was Corn Pop also 13 years old then? bluewater Sep 2019 #21

Wow, I'm sure the police who had trouble with the gangs then would have loved your reassurance. highplainsdem Sep 2019 #28

I don't know Biden's early life, but I wouldn't have guessed Hortensis Sep 2019 #61

This!! Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #64

No, he died in 2016 at 73, which means he would have been 19, The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #109

Thanks for posting that. Corny was a tiny, smack talking 19 year old teenager in 1962. bluewater Sep 2019 #114

When I was a kid in Brooklyn, we had "tiny, smack talking teenagers". Know why they were... George II Sep 2019 #45

Same ...growing up in Chicago, the "tiny" guy was always the bully. One had to watch your back Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #65

Have you ever seen a straight razor? Blue_true Sep 2019 #128

Yep, another hit and run post. Like it's going to bring down the Biden candidacy, eh? George II Sep 2019 #42

Yes.. the demise of his poll numbers and his candidacy has been predicted for months now Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #68

Love Joe's stories. LincolnRossiter Sep 2019 #11

Quite the tall tale, eh? bluewater Sep 2019 #14

The story's been substantially verified, no? LincolnRossiter Sep 2019 #17

Corn Pop is described as a tiny teenager that loved to prank the white life guard. bluewater Sep 2019 #19

Is it realized that one is trying way too hard with zero success? BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #26

Corn Pop "a tiny, smack-talking teenager" bluewater Sep 2019 #30

Again, trying too hard. BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #33

Sorry, but the truth about TINY Corn Pop is out of the barn... bluewater Sep 2019 #35

Are you getting a warm feeling as I discussed in a previous post? nt BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #36

But no one confirmed any actual confrontation with TINY Corn Pop outside the pool. bluewater Sep 2019 #38

Doesn't answer my question BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #55

Go Joe go.. we've got your back!! Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #69

Can't wait to hear about Sugar Smacks!! InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #94

OMFG! LOL! The twitter comments are hillarious! floppyboo Sep 2019 #13

Neither BS nor Kamala will get the nomination BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #29

Bernie will hold his own with at least 15% in the first 3 floppyboo Sep 2019 #40

Sanders plus Warren is greater than Biden. They are working together. floppyboo Sep 2019 #47

Actually BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #54

Humm.. yes you are... thx for letting everyone know Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #72

"have you ever considered writing fiction?" bluewater Sep 2019 #79

I like post #7 as a good fictional story Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #140

Tell us how you feel BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #100

If you look at second choice candidates, your theory does not bear out Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #56

The demise of Joe Biden's lead has been espoused for months now. Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #57

If things remain the same (they won't) after the first three the delegate counts will be: George II Sep 2019 #80

LOL bahrbearian Sep 2019 #49

Why wouldn't Joe call the cops? zackymilly Sep 2019 #16

He was told that if he called the cops, he'd never be able to return to the pool to work there. highplainsdem Sep 2019 #20

before he went out to confront TINY Corn Pop. bluewater Sep 2019 #27

Why don't you try running your theory -- that short gang members who are armed can't be highplainsdem Sep 2019 #34

not "short", he's described as having been TINY. bluewater Sep 2019 #37

Yes there is. OilemFirchen Sep 2019 #102

No, don't think there is. bluewater Sep 2019 #122

You're welcome. OilemFirchen Sep 2019 #124

Um, no mention of rusty razors being seen by anyone? C'mon man. bluewater Sep 2019 #126

Put the 1960s white cops onto black people? treestar Sep 2019 #39

lol -- posting verified stories as false BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #23

There's nothing in the op about the story being false. Hassin Bin Sober Sep 2019 #41

It is implied. You first BlueMississippi Sep 2019 #53

"Are you getting a warm feeling?" bluewater Sep 2019 #58

Go Joe go!! Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #74

Who cares? Most people do NOT. IluvPitties Sep 2019 #32

Got to be frustrating that Hassin doesn't make a dent redstateblues Sep 2019 #50

Good analogy! As I recall Wiley Coyote never did catch road runner Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #76

It happened. Here's the link to the corroboration from a former NAACP head... Kahuna7 Sep 2019 #51

Awhhh! Great story from an eye witness, thx for sharing! Thekaspervote Sep 2019 #62

As always... Kahuna7 Sep 2019 #66

Is Joe Biden a racist (that's the obvious implication of this post)? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #52

Wow. You sure read a lot in to a without comment posting of a without comment CNN video. Hassin Bin Sober Sep 2019 #83

So what was the reason for posting it? The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #108

But David Duke has endorsed a Democrat jrandom421 Sep 2019 #85

I'd forgotten about that, but I guess when I think about The Velveteen Ocelot Sep 2019 #92

I love Martha Crawford's take on it. WhiskeyGrinder Sep 2019 #75

Is Crawford aware the video is from 2017? At a ceremony at City Pool honoring Biden? emulatorloo Sep 2019 #82

Two years ago is too long to mention? bluewater Sep 2019 #86

Crawford insinuates he tells the story over and over again. emulatorloo Sep 2019 #88

Biden told the Corn Pop story in his autobiography too. bluewater Sep 2019 #90

Here's how his story was received at the ceremony at City Pool emulatorloo Sep 2019 #95

Thanks for agreeing Biden told the story in his autobiography and also in 2017. bluewater Sep 2019 #113

Appears you didn't read what I actually wrote bluewater Sep 2019 #119

The Michael Harriot? sheshe2 Sep 2019 #121

Not under the "Bernie Standard," which can go all the way back to his high-school days. InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #91

30s and 40s aren't high school days JI7 Sep 2019 #97

You could read this. sheshe2 Sep 2019 #139

Wondered that myself... what is Joe's point in repeatedly telling this story about Corn Pop?! InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #93

Dunno. Perhaps we should ask Joe? bluewater Sep 2019 #98

See my post above emulatorloo Sep 2019 #103

Whatever Crawford's irrelevant take on a story about a time and place she knows nothing about, highplainsdem Sep 2019 #138

Great story! If you're not afraid to face up to a tough guy sometimes an apology will do. The Wielding Truth Sep 2019 #84

not only is this.... quickesst Sep 2019 #96

it is not to our advantage to keep ignoring this shit. he's not the guy to beat trump. Kurt V. Sep 2019 #110

I think Joe could win, but, we need a strong progressive nominee who will give voters InAbLuEsTaTe Sep 2019 #135

Better grounds than the Corn Pop story on which to champion Bernie's candidacy and discredit emmaverybo Sep 2019 #130

Joe Biden is owed an apology for this thread Gothmog Sep 2019 #143

I'm guessing this is this week's Let's Throw it At The Wall and Hope it Sticks message. LanternWaste Sep 2019 #144

I agree with Nate Silver-no Biden supporter is going to change due to this attack Gothmog Sep 2019 #147
