Biden visits Puerta Rico

[TroglocratsRdumb]

In route to that stop, the Bidens' motorcade saw some protesters as it made its way through Ponce. 'Biden Go Home,' one sign read.

But the president, in his remarks, told the crowd he felt an infinity with the territory, noting his home state of Delaware had a large population of minorities, including Puerto Ricans. Wilmington, Del., has a large Puerto Rican population as does the nearby city of Philadelphia.

'I come from a little state - a little state of Delaware,' Biden said. 'But we have - in very relative terms - large Puerto Rican population in Delaware - relative to our population.'

'I was sort of raised in the Puerto Rican community at home politically. And so we came here for a long time, both for business and pleasure,' he said of his family.

That's strange I recall Biden bragging about growing up on the mean streets of Delaware and being the baddest White boy in the hood. He was the only one who could hang with Chicken Wing and the boyz.

Remember how the Left Wing media crucified Bush for waiting 3 days to go to New Orleans.
They were shooting at the National Guard.
Biden won't go to Florida because he knows that he will be jeered.
