5. IMHO, It was presumptuous of him to chide any African American for not being black enough.

Not being AA myself, I don't know what being "black" or "black enough" is supposed to mean or if there is such a thing in the AA community.

Which is why I don't think Biden has any business doing it. Neither of us know the answer. I don't know if any white person can really understand that.

I think he meant that no AA should vote Trump because he is a racist pig. If you do, you are voting for a man and a party who will discriminate against you and oppress you.

I do know that all the conservative shocked protestations are all bee ess.

Conservatives don't care who is "black" or not, they care that African Americans aren't white.

I seriously doubt that the bigots accept AA like Ben Carson despite his buying into the conservative ideology. He serves only as an good example of AA assimilating into the elitist rich white culture.

Push came to shove the christofascists would lynch Carson.
