There is nothing in this video to suggest that Biden is talking about black people being put in chains. The only black person in the video that I can see is sitting on the dias behind Biden.

You are clearly trying to turn this into a racial issue where there is no evidence that is what it is.

OH really?

Ex-Va. Gov. Wilder slams Biden for 'chains' remark
The nation's first elected black governor, Virginia's L. Douglas Wilder, lambasted Vice President Joe Biden on national television Wednesday for his remark to a largely black crowd about banks keeping people "in chains."

It's interesting that the wording of your post suggests that you are speaking for all black people. I doubt that.

I hate to break this to you, but black people no longer consider Wilder an ally. In addition, black people were not outraged, only republicans! Hilarious!

" In May Davis announced he was switching to the GOP, leaving the door open to a future political bid as a Republican."

Clearly has no ulterior motives.

I won't dispute that Biden seems to like the taste of his shoe, but "racial viciousness" is so over the top as to be worse than what it is criticizing. Davis makes an apt Republican.
