[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote][b]And Joe Biden was self made. His parents were working class,[/b] did not go to college, and did not have any political clout. Unlike Pelosi and so many others, including Trump who had a half billion dollar real estate empire handed to him by his dad.[/quote]

Biden's parents were not working class.  That was a myth he promoted.  He was raised middle class. Not wealthy (although I think his dad was born to wealth but lost it.)  He was NOT the first to go to college.  He bragged about his grandfather playing football at a college in California.  Claimed he was "All American."  (No proof of that)

How many "self made" men that you know are given Corvettes by their dad for a wedding present?
His first wife was extremely wealthy.

You do know he had to drop out of his first run for President because of his plagiarism?  Many of his stories are myths.  I don't claim he grew up wealthy.  He did not.  His big trauma as a child was having to move from Scranton to Wilmington.  I don't know about you, but most people I know have family members who have made moves for work.  It may not be "happy" but it is not usually traumatic/

Bill Clinton was raised poor.  I don't think Carter was raised wealthy, but his dad did own a peanut business and Carter was wealthy when elected.  Reagen was probably the last GOP not born to wealth.  Obama's family was not poor.  His grandmother was vice-president of a bank.

Biden's father wasn't born into wealth, he came from working class and only went to high school and never went to college.  He struggled financially for a lot of his life.  The way he was able to give a Corvette as a gift is because for a while, he worked as a car salesman.  They weren't dirt poor but they certainly weren't by any stretch wealthy or entitled upper middle class.  And neither of Joe's two wives were wealthy.  His first wife came from middle class and was a school teacher, Jill was also from a middle class family.  [/quote]
