Question

Does Joe Biden still believe,"You cannot go to a 7-Eleven... unless you have a slight Indian accent'?

Answer 1

You mean like mine? Son mi gente como Biden

Like McCain isn't a pathetic elitist bigot.  Please give it up

Answer 2

He really needs to watch what he says  

Answer 3

light hearted fun that comes from the old days of when people could laugh about themselves and others.  Unlike McCain that just calls his wife the c word and says how ugly chesea clinton is when she was a little girl , etc, insults for insults not poking good fun.   Or true fun,  

Answer 4

He's such a sh.thead.

Answer 5

I wonder if he speaks Indian? is that why Obama picked him? I know Obama is fond of bilinguals.

Answer 6

Well, Biden is lose at the lips no worries for Messiah.  Biden can run the country and Obama just do stump speeches.  Cheney combo all over again and McCain has to pick Romney to to keep the pit bull biden from eating up McCain.  

Answer 7

Plagiarism can have catastrophic consequences for one's career as a student and even later on in life—and the higher one's ambition takes one, the higher the stakes. In 1987, for instance, Senator Joe Biden, who was seeking the Democratic presidential nomination, was accused of plagiarizing passages in speeches and interviews from the oratory of a British politician, Neil Kinnock. Here are some of the passages in question:

Kinnock (original)

Why am I the first Kinnock in a thousand generations to be able to get to university? Why is Glenys the first woman in her family in a thousand generations to be able to get to university?

Was it because our predecessors were thick? Does anybody really think that they didn't get what we had because they didn't have the talent or the strength or the endurance or the commitment? Of course not. It was because there was no platform upon which they could stand.



Biden

I started thinking as I was coming over here, why is it that Joe Biden is the first in his family ever to go to a university? Why is it that my wife who is sitting out there in the audience is the first in her family to ever go to college?

Is it because our fathers and mothers were not bright? . . . No, it's not because they weren't as smart. It's not because they didn't work as hard. It's because they didn't have a platform upon which to stand . . .

What an awesome find Biden was.........

VOTE MCCAIN 2008 YOU GOOFS!!!!!!

Answer 8

Probably.  I've been thinking that part of the strategy of Biden might be that he has so much baggage, it will take the spotlight off of Obama's shady past.

Answer 9

Yes pale face, or a casino.

Answer 10

He is correct however in that remark, what is sad is the way opinions form over such a remark.  Is he trying to downgrade a culture or state a simple fact ?  The listener of remarks such as that will determine indirectly whether it was a derogatory statement.  What you think either confirms your own prejudice or his ignorance.  

Answer 11

or is it work at a 7-11.....

  Not sure either way.

Answer 12

I don't know, does John McCain still refer to Asians as "gooks?"

Answer 13

wow a liberal telling it like it is---that's one of the  changes Obama may be looking for.

Answer 14

And does he also still think it is unusual for African Americans to be articulate, bright, clean-cut and good looking:

“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American presidential candidate who is articulate and bright and clean-cut and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man,”

His 7/11 quote in full context:

“In Delaware, the largest growth in population is Indian-Americans moving from India. You cannot go to a 7-Eleven or a Dunkin' Donuts unless you have a slight Indian accent. I'm not joking.”
