In reply to the discussion: Boston Globe: Biden was the Admiral Stockdale of this debate [View all]R B Garr
(16,954 posts)he said. I didnt see him changing what he said because he didnt need to. He added a polite addendum but what he said was correct. Harris and Cory were ready to pounce since they wanted to diminish his support with African American voters.
He was honoring CMB by saying she had been the first AA female Senator.
She had been the only elected Senator means
she was the first Senator. It doesnt mean she was the only Senator. He didnt correct himself out of error because he wasnt wrong.
If you have to browbeat people with these biased interpretations, it means there wasnt much there to begin with.
Im more disgusted with Harris for making a nice tribute to CMB about herself in a mistaken way. Now we are reminded that Biden swore Harris in as an Indian-American, so he wasnt wrong.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
