I didn't hear President Biden's speech, but this quote above is being taken out of context. I know what he was trying to say. Did he say it exactly right? No. However, I believe he was responding to something Trump said about black jobs. I think many folks are being too hard on our President and I fear this time next year we will wish we made different decisions. Trump has already shown us who he is and he has already told us what he is going to do. If Project 2025 doesn't scare you then you haven't read the fine print. I don't speak on politics much and I believe everyone has their own opinion and we are all entitled to vote how we want to vote. However this election is probably the most important of our lifetime. I have a feeling I know who will win in November. I just hope we are prepared either way. There are surely interesting days ahead. I'm praying for us all.

What is a “black job” Joe.? He lost some points with me and he lost the NAACP audience 😞 he was addressing in Las Vegas . This is good .

I don't care about speeches or personalities. I care about policies. I don't care about fear tactics of what "THEY" say President Trump is going to do when NONE of it was done during the entire first 4 years of office. I was paying less for groceries, rent, mortgage, gas, etc. I will vote the policies that are best for me and my family and looking back under President Trump they were MUCH MUCH better than now. I've been black all my life and don't need to think as a group to continue to be. That's the main reason we've gotten what we've gotten in years past. Voting because someone say they are for us but their policies NEVER reflect that statement.

Why is it that Democrats only excel at Pandering to Black voters every 3.75 years? Could it be about control? How are the inner cities, controlled by Democrats, fairing today? *Last Friday evening, my widowed neighbor of 30 years directly behind me, robbed at gunpoint in our shared alley of her car, purse and IPhone which directly led the Police to them thankfully. 3 young black men. Do you have more real spendable money than under the last administration? How about that grocery bill? Can you pay your rent or buy a home easier than the last administration? Can you afford the EV being forced on you? How about that 5k$ home charging station? Can you fill your gas tank without financial pain? How about that utility bill? Insurance? Taxes? Do you believe the media news today? "It's easier to fool people than to convince them they have been fooled". - Mark Twain

Biden may know what a Black job is, but not a Black federal contractor. More than 90% of the nation's government contracts are awarded to White males, more than $600 billion (from the Commerce Department alone)... And you wonder why our business districts look vastly different. Black incarceration and Black entrepreneurship are opposing correlations .Why? The lack of fairness in government contract dollars restrict hiring from Black businesses For BLACK JOBS.

Why not talk about black entrepreneurship…(You know…owning Your Own business) instead of a job? Asking for a friend…

Only a fool would believe the oppressors empty promises. And he always uses his bed wench to keep the others comfortable slaves in line. Smart leadership. Effective for 400 years strong
