I understand the meaning of his comment...but that was not thought out, and taken out of context (as you know it will be), that just looks really bad. smh biden. smh.
Both the progressive Democrats and Neo Cons are bigots and racist... Affirmative Action is racist going both ways... First it is insulting to blacks and discriminates against whites.
Joe Biden claimed that the $862 Billion failed stimulus ($400 remains unspent) “created or saved” 750,000 jobs. Economists don’t recognize jobs created, and the jobs saved may have been keep local agencies afloat. When the money ran out, the people lost their jobs. Currently States are considering filing bankruptcy for spending. watch?v=IqmeT5ykKf0
The Govt owns 61% of GM, GOOGLE, “GM's electric-car fantasy running out of gas” and read links. The Green Movement should be free market driven
Thanks in large part to Biden's leadership, you can call tech support from anywhere in Delaware and be assured of speaking to someone with an Indian accent
Joe Biden is fucking hilarious. I'd love to see him to some stand up. Whereas Bushisms usually just involve poor grammar and incredibly fucked up metaphors, Bidenisms are just Joe bein' Joe. Funny guy.
This, Obama's "typical white person" comment, Boxer condescending a black business owner, BIll Clinton's "(Obama) would be getting us coffee" remark, Jesse Jackson's "Hymietown" statements, Al Shartpon's "pin back your yamulke" threats. This is all real racism and it's all from the left. You want a crowd of non-racist people? Attend a Tea Party rally one day.
I'm Indian. And this video has made me love Joe Biden for actually SAYING WHAT HE ACTUALLY MEANS without buying into this whole bullshit Americans seem to label, "Racism."
beto 5775 you racist piece of shit got the hots for Asian girls and your racist towards Indians what a jerk you are what's the matter one of em Hindu ladies knocked you back ? you make Biden look like the brain of the century you tin pot little Hitler
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
Joe is right, there is alot of fucking hindus in the U.S. and they should all be deported back to fucking india or put into gas chambers for breaking the rules. Everywhere I go I see a fucking brown hindu piece of shit walking the mall or best buy. If I were obama I drop 5000 atom bombs on india to stop those fuckers from coming over here and exterminate the remaining fucking hindus here. 711 and dunkin donuts call you fucking onion smelling pieces of shit.
wateverthe F dude.... that was a joke in BAD taste. Just bc u are the typical desi liberal you are letting him go! imgaine a conservative politician saying this, he's be attacked from ALL sides.
The racist part is that he said you need an Indian Accent to go shopping in 7 eleven stores. That is like saying you need to learn Ebonics to go shopping in stores owned by Blacks. If Bush had said this all the talk show would have re run this comment for years.
You're stretching, pal. I don't even know what that means, "you need a slight Indian accent" to go in one of those stores. Even in your ebonics context it still doesn't make any sense. For you to pull that Biden is a racial supremacist out of only "you need a slight Indian accent," tells me you're struggling to hate this guy.

There goes the bigot and here comes media manipulation.
2 questions to ask when talking about ethnic disparities and/or stereotypes
1: Biden is not demeaning when he states that a lot of indians work or own these businesses in Delaware. He didn't belittle the profession. After all, what's wrong with owning a convenience store or donut shop?
2: Is there truth to his statement? If so, can he talk about it? Where did this stereotype come from and is it a blasphemy to ever mention even if there is truth to it? Should people be offended automatically?
I live in Delaware and yes it is absolutely true. I also don't believe he meant it in a negative way. It's just a plain fact in DE EVERY dunkin donuts and 7-11 and for that matter liquor stores as well are Indian American owned.
this is horrible. all of u know that if a republican had said this, he would have probably been forced to resign by now. but keith olbermann, rachel maddow and chris matthews wouldnt dare attack a liberal for being racist. its horrible the liberal bias in this country, especially in the media
LIberals are bigots and racists in denial. Look how they attacked Bobby Jindal. The outsourcing comment by Chris Mathews was beyond stereotypical and demeaning.
what was racially negative in this comment please explain? was it him commenting about the large population of indian american store owners or was it the comment about them as a large growth in delaware economy? I think your reading into something a little to closely. it's comments like yours that cause presidential debates to become nothing more than scripted commercials. & thats a bad thing for dems reps & everyone else in this country. Stop being scared people speaking like people. not robots
I don't see what the outrage is, I'm pretty sure every politician shares this sentiment: especially the conservative commentators who are bashing him for saying this.
Besides progressive values, concern for social justice, and belief in first amendment rights you're absolutely right, Indian Americans have NOTHING in common with Democrats
lol, as if conservatives dont believe in those, libs arent for "progression" more like retrogression away from important social and tradational moral values and the institution and tolerance for depraved secular and evil behavior., libs are sickening and disgusting depraved creatures of darkness. Tell me why you libs want to take away conservatives right to free speech? or the right to bear arms? or the right to eat transfatty foods? Those the rights you stand for? Bullshit, Hypo-fuckin-crite.
Americans who want to contribute to their presidential candidate of choice are strictly constrained in giving no more than $2300 per candidate election. But the same limits apparently don't apply in practice to foreigners who want to help Barack Hussein Obama get elected, although the Federal Election Commission clearly does not agree.
The brothers Edwan -- Monir and Hasam -- hail from Rafah, GA. That's GA as in Gaza, not Georgia. As first revealed by the Atlas Shrugs blog and further developed in World Net Daily, they contributed a whopping $29,521.54 to Senator Obama's campaign, more than 13 times the legal limit that applies to American citizens.
contributive parts of the American economy. In fewer words, Biden you need to get your facts straight and think about what you say, you stereotypical idiot.
Wow this guy is the most ignorant stereotypical racist. First of all, Indians no longer own Dunkin Donuts I do not know where he got that from, maybe like 30 years ago when he was 'young' but not now, in fact Indians are dying down in the ownership of even gas stations. Today, in 2008 Indians are dominating to hotel industry and medical fields, two very important and of the very abundant and
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
omg he said alot of indian people work at 7-11. At least they let him give interviews, unlike palin who hides behind mccain because she is too much of an ignorant bimbo to know anything. If she were allowed to talk, she'd have started a whole shitstorm by now.
who wants to give interviews with people that take things out of context(cnn interviewer makes in look like the conservative magazine called palin names,etc when the article was talking about how media portrays and distorts he,article acually points out things palin did good in alaska)why does media not ask he 1 question that deals with governing instead of forgien policy for every question(why not even 1 question for obama on governing?)biden is dumb, palin talked circles around him in debate
People the image of Obama as a pro-India/Indian politican is just a public relations marketing job. That he has a picture of Mahamtma Gandhi in his office and carries a small tiny metal statue of the Hindu god Hanuman are just deliberate planted stories in the obliging press. In the early stages of the debate on the Indo-US nuclear accord he was vehemently opposed to the deal and in fact co-sponsored legistlation against the deal. Go by the record!
That's almost as bad as saying certain parts of this country are bitter, xenophobic, clinging to their guns and religion. Or like talking about "typical [insert race] people." Imagine the outrage if a Republican had said something like that. Ah, selective outrage....
Im an Indian American. Im didnt find anything racist about his comment. So chill people. He also goes onto say that 30% of all CEOs in the valley were Indian too. Atleast he knows that. I wonder how many people actually do know that...
it's reinforcing a stereotype, that all indians wind up in 7-11s and dunkin donuts, like Apu on the simpsons, so saying a russian accent, no it wouldn't mean much, because russians aren't known for being behind the counter of convenient shops
Biden is just one silly clown. LOL I cannot believe he just said that. I honestly think he does not BS about trying to be too official and formal. In all, I don't think he is a racist.
Palin would have got out her gun and told the guy to go back to his own country, then went home to her little house on the prairie. Then baked brownies with her preggers daughter while "Greensleeves" plays in the background.
Joe Biden is really Frank Drebin. Biden is a buffoon. Biden was caught plagarizing in law school, had to drop out of the 1988 presidential race because he plagarized from British labor leader Neil Kinnock, and has insulted Indians and blacks.
he's reinforcing a stereotype, a well known one too, that doesn't make it right, he might as well say that you can't walk past a black person without them committing crime while he's at it
I don't believe Senator Biden is a racist. I think these comments are innocent. HOWEVER, I do believe that if he was a Republican, that the Democrats and their accomplices in the media would be all over this trying to push that he was racist and asking for an apology, etc. etc. etc.
whites blacks indians asians, who cares. just be truthful and don't avoid saying true things when you know you're right. that is democracy and freedom of speech. oh and i almost forgot. are jews greedy and cheap or what?!
speaking openly about it. is it racist to say asian tourists take photos everywhere they go? or that eastern europeans commit crimes in western europe? or that asians are geeky? or that whites want to dominate? or that whites founded this country? they also started two world wars and kill other races on all different continents with no remorse because they think they're superior. these are all true things, don't avoid saying the truth.
how is that racist you "politically correct" idiots? it was good humour, it was not offensive and it is true! how is that racist? learn to think for yourselves and have the strength to say true things when they don't offend a large group of people based on a few individuals. is it racist to say most blacks are uneducated??!! no. it is a truth, and first step in solving it is admitting it and
Macaca! Macaca! Macaca! And to the people asking "why is this racist?" Why don't you just come out and tell us why it isn't: because Biden is a Democrat. Robert Byrd has used the n-word in an interview within the last couple of years and suffered no repercussions. Admittedly the old racist is losing his faculties, but the reason he gets away with it has more to do with his political affiliation than his dementia.
The L.A. Times just popped a big story the Obama-Biden folks don't want to be reading the night the Delaware senator introduces himself to the nation: a potential conflict of interest involving Biden and one of the nation's biggest asbestos litigation law firms -- which also happens to be his top contributor.
People, Joe has done more good in international affairs than any other U.S. politician has in recent years, if not decades! And if you would do a little research, you would find he is well-respected in most other countries - INCLUDING INDIA!
Or perhaps you would prefer another 4 years of militarism, re-living the Cold War with Russia, fighting off terrorists that keep joining in droves, and an America that keeps getting further and further isolated from the rest of the world??? WAKE UP!!!
if the terrorists are, as you say, joining in droves, might it not be a good idea to confront that kind of enormous threat? and might not john mccain do a better job of fighting it?
"I'm not joking." No shit Joe. Afterall, you're family had restrictive covenants in their property deeds to prevent blacks from acquiring their land. Now you're with the abberant articulate black candidate. Two arrogant assholes making it easy for McCain instead of a Hillary landslide. Candy to a baby.
haha, as if, this whole election thing is set up just like the others were. Democrats have the choice between a woman and a black guy - black guy wins and is actually popular! wow! Now they have a caught on tape racist running for VP - hmm, this is a tough pick, total chaos and weirdness or the safe pick?
007ObiWan, Well done! I've been unsuccessfully trying to think of the word to describe Biden. Gross, snarky, narcissistic, greasy...none good (bad) enough. But now we have a ticket consisting of "The Messiah" and "his Assholiness!" That is brilliant and fits Biden perfectly...because he's a self-worshiping asshole.
Look at the snarkiness of Biden's expression when he insists he's not joking. He is a master of assholiness. He praised Obama for being the first black presidential candidate who is "articulate and bright and clean." Jesse Jackson may not be too bright but he strikes me as fairly articulate and clean.
Stupid racist pig. Indian americans are a large percentage of the Doctors, engineers, and scientists in the US, and this idiot thinks - 7-11 and Dunkin Donuts are where all the indians work.
What a racist!
Isn't this the guy who said that he'll win the south because his own beloved state is also a SLAVE state!
Why is this racists? It's not thats indians work there, it's that they own them. I've noticed that many middle eastern looking people have began to run many of the gas stations in the mid-west. They're in that business. Some people just want to point the finger and scream "racist" regardless of the situation.
It absolutely IS a racist comment...because of the social stigma he assigns regarding menial employment ie: counter help. Does he say anything about software designers and financiers? Nope...he goes to the stereotype ala Apu of The Simpsons. Teamed with a man who talksa about "typical white people" and sat in the church of a bigoted pastor---I submit that the Obama-Biden pairing is a RACIST ticket. BUT, pin-head Dims will get a pass, and call the GOP racist instead. HYPOCRISY REINS LEFT!!!
do people really think biden would say racist comments to a supporter right in front of him? also is it bad to own a 7-11 or dunkin donuts, call me crazy but it seems like a good job. what is there to be offended by?
like biden said in his explanation just like italian americans came in 1900s and became successful this once again proves why america is the land of opportunity.
So if a KKK member calls a black guy the 'N' word to his face it can't possibly be demeaning and innapropriate because it's to his face?
Please, if he said "man I can't go to a basketball court without picking up some ebonics from all of the blacks there" I have little doubt you'd find it racist and it's the same exact thing he is saying about Indian people. Stereotyping.
So if he says they work in or own 7-11's and Dunkin Donuts he's "stereotyping" them , but if he says they make up 30% of the CEO's in Silicon Valley he's not stereotyping them. That makes lots of sense.
let's re-watch the video shall we, he says nothing of the sort. He SAYS that he can't walk into a 7-11 without picking up an Indian accent. You can read whatever else you want into his remarks but they don't exist. If he said they make up 30% of the owners of 7-11's and had facts to back it up there is nothing wrong with that. Saying 'I can't walk in without picking up an accent' is incredibly racist. You are the one who makes no sense. Take off your blinders. Biden is a racist.
ok i forgot on youtube we need to bring everything down to the lowest common denominator.
i'm so tired of this conversation. everyone can look at it their own way.
the way i view this comment is Biden doesn't watch the simpsons, he spends his time fighting for civil rights in the senate (check his record). at the same time he isn't blind so when he sees more indian people around owning stores than he did 50 years ago he thinks man america is a great land of diversity.
vh84dlr: "do people really think biden would say racist comments to a supporter right in front of him?"
That's the problem with Biden, most of the time he doesn't know what he is saying. The sad thing is that his racist thinking is so innate that he doesn't "think" twice about blurting it out.
""In 1976, I became the first elected official outside George to endorse Jimmy Carter for President." This prescient observation comes just three pages later:
"Jimmy Carter was a man of decency and a man of principle, but it wasn't enough. That's the first time I realized that on-the-job training for a president can be a dangerous thing."
OK, so the Carter presidency was when you realized it, Joe. Now the question is "When did you forget it?" "
The only thing he left out was "macaque".

what was racially negative in this comment please explain? was it him commenting about the large population of indian american store owners or was it the comment about them as a large growth in delaware economy? I think your reading into something a little to closely. it's comments like yours that cause presidential debates to become nothing more than scripted commercials. & thats a bad thing for dems reps & everyone else in this country.

Americans who want to contribute to their presidential candidate of choice are strictly constrained in giving no more than $2300 per candidate election. But the same limits apparently don't apply in practice to foreigners who want to help Barack Hussein Obama get elected, although the Federal Election Commission clearly does not agree.

The brothers Edwan -- Monir and Hasam -- hail from Rafah, GA. That's GA as in Gaza, not Georgia. As first revealed by the Atlas Shrugs blog and further developed in World Net Daily, they contributed a whopping $29,521.54 to Senator Obama's campaign, more than 13 times the legal limit that applies to American citizens.

Today, in 2008 Indians are dominating to hotel industry and medical fields, two very important and of the very abundant and

People the image of Obama as a pro-India/Indian politican is just a public relations marketing job. That he has a picture of Mahamtma Gandhi in his office and carries a small tiny metal statue of the Hindu god Hanuman are just deliberate planted stories in the obliging press. In the early stages of the debate on the Indo-US nuclear accord he was vehemently opposed to the deal and in fact co-sponsored legistlation against the deal. Go by the record!

People, Joe has done more good in international affairs than any other U.S. politician has in recent years, if not decades! And if you would do a little research, you would find he is well-respected in most other countries - INCLUDING INDIA!

So if a KKK member calls a black guy the 'N' word to his face it can't possibly be demeaning and innapropriate because it's to his face?
Please, if he said "man I can't go to a basketball court without picking up some ebonics from all of the blacks there" I have little doubt you'd find it racist and it's the same exact thing he is saying about Indian people. Stereotyping.
manny75586 3 years ago
So if he says they work in or own 7-11's and Dunkin Donuts he's "stereotyping" them , but if he says they make up 30% of the CEO's in Silicon Valley he's not stereotyping them. That makes lots of sense.
EZSuds 3 years ago
let's re-watch the video shall we, he says nothing of the sort. He SAYS that he can't walk into a 7-11 without picking up an Indian accent. You can read whatever else you want into his remarks but they don't exist. If he said they make up 30% of the owners of 7-11's and had facts to back it up there is nothing wrong with that. Saying 'I can't walk in without picking up an accent' is incredibly racist. You are the one who makes no sense. Take off your blinders. Biden is a racist.
manny75586 3 years ago
ok i forgot on youtube we need to bring everything down to the lowest common denominator.
i'm so tired of this conversation. everyone can look at it their own way.
the way i view this comment is Biden doesn't watch the simpsons, he spends his time fighting for civil rights in the senate (check his record). at the same time he isn't blind so when he sees more indian people around owning stores than he did 50 years ago he thinks man america is a great land of diversity.

vh84dlr: "do people really think biden would say racist comments to a supporter right in front of him?"
That's the problem with Biden, most of the time he doesn't know what he is saying. The sad thing is that his racist thinking is so innate that he doesn't "think" twice about blurting it out.

From Michael Graham:
""In 1976, I became the first elected official outside George to endorse Jimmy Carter for President." This prescient observation comes just three pages later:
"Jimmy Carter was a man of decency and a man of principle, but it wasn't enough. That's the first time I realized that on-the-job training for a president can be a dangerous thing."
OK, so the Carter presidency was when you realized it, Joe. Now the question is "When did you forget it?" "
