Lincoln freed the slaves, albeit unwittingly. Was he a racist?

You are projecting. You are the one that dodged the question of which one has apologized for his actions.
My issues with Biden are well documented. I have demanded policy from him. That is what is gonna improve things, not white remorse.
No one is gonna believe I think a simple apology is enough. Nice try troll.

Yall will never get him to say Trump is racist. No sense in wasting energy.

Hey, he is right about Biden. He's about as greasy as Jermaine Jackson's face. He simply isn't going to allow you to bring Trump into it, without droppin' Biden in the bucket as well.Exactly
Do you think Biden, through legislation, has done more harm?

The thing is, nearly everyone in here was ****ting on Biden constantly during the primary. Black members especially voiced their displeasure with the prospect of him being the nominee given his past actions, and found him invoking Obama's name constantly frustrating.Hey, he is right about Biden. He's about as greasy as Jermaine Jackson's face. He simply isn't going to allow you to bring Trump into it, without droppin' Biden in the bucket as well.
The thing you think he is just trying to keep thing honest, but no one argues Biden is innocent or perfect. We argue he is clearly better, especially for the job of being president.
Like did you know that Delk excuses Trump's racism prior to becoming president because it said it wasn't as bad since he was private citizen. And claimed that his racism while in office might be due to inexperience. He doesn't even want to hear that the GOP thought Biden crime bill was soft on crime.
Dude only cares about Biden's action to deflect from Trump.

What is wild/funny about Delk's whole Crime Bill attack on Biden, and his First Step Act praise of Trump, is that Delk doesn't put the blame on the Crime Bill on the guy who signed it into law, Bill Clinton.
Nor does he praise Cory Booker for his work in crafting and passing the First Step Act.

Oh, I get that. There was a discussion in here some time ago, where we spoke of the only reason the Black Church votes democrat, is because the other option has a constituency that wants to make lynching legal again. The Black Church is conservative through faith, but liberal through survival, enter Biden.

This isn’t true
. I just want people (especially my people) to be fully informed as possible, and do what’s in their best interest...and if voting is a tool in a larger toolbox of many that you can use to better yours and others situation...use it. And if you decide to do that...there is a clear choice.I just urge people to be informed, think critically and do them. I urge myself to do the same. I’m learning a **** ton. And plan to continue to use whatever tools I have, to better me and mines, with the info I got.
And nice try at getting farther and farther away from what you originally said

Clayton wasn't black. He had Dominican in his family, and as a youth he played baseball. Unfortunately due to his lack of sight, they made him stand in the outfield.
And we all know, like libby conjecture and innuendo, hyperpigmentation is relentless.
But like Delk, he still repping...

No, I'm talking as if you're not adding anything to the discussion. In fact you're doing worse than that, you're taking away from it with the reductive analysis of "both sides", a rhetorical weapon wielded only by sophists and the fools that believe them. Please don't be either. And especially not for someone like dwalk who if you were murdered by a white supremacist tomorrow would gladly argue for that white supremacists innocence over your literal dead body.

Yes.
It is my understanding that Lincoln openly declared that white people were superior to black people.
But don't take my word for it:
FACT CHECK: Did Abraham Lincoln Express Opposition to Racial Equality?
An authentic quotation from Lincoln has attracted renewed attention, along with some commentary that over-simplifies his views on race.

Republicans have put two, TWO, sexual predators on the current Supreme Court who will serve until the day they die. One of them, Clarence Thomas, is an unabashed white supremacist who uses his blackness as a shield against that obvious fact. If I point this out I shouldn't be met with "Boy you really think your political party cares about ya huh 
". Like ***** I'm just rocking with the people currently NOT doing that, that's all. They start doing that I'll stop messing with them, it's that simple.

Does Trump live with, then take advantage of his white privilege? Does he hide behind such, at the risk of appearing insensitive to the struggle for equality for Black people in america? If not, why were there very fine people on both sides?! Does someone who'll benefit from white supremacy, actually need to admit that they are indeed a dyed in the wool racist in order for you to believe that they are indeed, racist?Yes.

Due to the privilege that they live with, would they KNOW if they actually are?
Who'd be better to judge, than someone who is oppressed by the system that someone like Trump thrives through?

I’ll answer your questions in order:
1. Yes
2. Yes
3. N/A
4. No
5. I don’t know
6. If you want to declare Trump a racist, I definitely understand that view.

Keep reaching.So you're assuming that I just sit on the sideline and criticize while not voting?

So what you are stating here is that you are not comfortable with stating your view about if Trump is indeed a racist, correct?
Is there a reason for that, other than your unabashed support for him?

Odd to mention Thomas, considering the controversy surrounding Biden’s treatment of Anita Hill during his confirmation hearings...
Not to mention the accusations against Biden himself.
Like always, I advocate for the innocent until proven guilty standard instead of picking and choosing when to label someone a sexual predator based on political leanings.

Do you even know what the criticism of Biden was regarding Hill?
Second, Trump has like 20 more accusations against him than Biden.

So, how do you feel about Trump not rescinding his comments about the Central Park 5, even while in office?! This is who you've voted for, and then support.
