Damon is cute and he's a go-getter. Smarter than Biden? Biden tells the masses what they want to hear. I guess it depends on the definition of "smart".

He is? How could you tell?

Wenchy, what was the point of posting that video, and how does it pertain to the topic?

I'm not poking fun at the child. I have a problem with the example Biden gave at the end of the video. It relates to this entire thread.

I didn't get through the whole thing - it was like listening to a skipping record.

I thought the comments were interesting. If a white kid talked like that, they'd have thought he was mentally retarded.

The topic is about government meddling with our education system. We have a bunch of retards graduating with diplomas. At the end of the video Biden goes a step further and says all children are entitled to a college education. This will be his "job" as vice president. Granted, it was an example, but a scary one for me.

It's not nice to pick on kids, didn't you ever learn that?

problem is that anytime the government says everyone is entitled, only the entitiled benefit.
so,
to put it correctly, black and minority kids deserve a college education, white kids only deserve it if their parents can afford the price of their kids, and the extra needed to pay the way for the black/minority kids.

Okay, well, he also said his "job" was to tell Barack Obama when he disagrees with him, and we all know that if he tries that, he'll end up at the bottom of a lake. It was right after that that I turned it off because listening to that mushmouth kid about made me sick.

You're kidding, right? Expecting children that age to have decent verbal skills is "picking on them"?
