    Joe was 52 years old when he gave this speech. His views on the world were fully formed. As were Bernie's.https://twitter.com/shaunking/status/1121417198764003328 …

    The Crime Bill of 1994 was literally named after Joe Biden. Now watch the speech he gave for it. I think it's the single most problematic speech ever given on mass incarceration in US Senate History. Then listen to @BernieSanders blast Joe & blast the bill.

        I choose Joe.. You can choose who you feel is someone that will represent you. But please do not start infighting. The only fight we should be engaged in is how to win back the white House.

        Biden's a racist. No one fights that hard to dehumanize black people and latino people, fights so hard against desegregation, AND completely craps on Anita Hill and then has a coming to Jesus moment because they served with the first black president.

        I hope my views continue to progress and change way past my fifties. You may want to consider lifting up Bernie instead of tearing down his opponents.

        Bernie is going to lose again and then they’ll continue to smear him until the general election like they did Hillary. #NeverBernie

        How old was bernie when he praised the Soviet Union in the late 80s, or abdicated for the dissolution of the entire US military in the eighties, or refused to call Maduro a tyrant like a month ago?

        I am 55 & would never say the things Biden is saying in that speech. The '90s were when I began to turn against the Dems.

        I remember being angry when they started that "tough on crime" crap. I knew they were doing it to appeal to Republicans & felt like I, as a Democrat, was being pushed aside. I still feel like they do not care about their base. I haven't changed at all.
