I got into a lot of fights when I was a kid. I’m not talking shoving matches on the playground—I mean knockdown, torn-clothes, busted-lip, black eye fights where, if I didn’t put the other kid down, he was going to come back and hurt me, usually with some other kids in tow.
I know, I know, I know, I know. Joe Biden is everyone’s cool and tough septuagenarian home slice. And while I’m not in the business of granting white people invites to the mythical and now waaaaaaay overcrowded cookout, I know “Uncle Joe” is on a lot of people’s invitee lists. (Also, if he is invited to your cookout, …
Well, this all got super stupid, super quickly.
Former Vice President Joe Biden won’t stop all this tough-talking stuff, and he’s literally becoming the walking meme of himself.
In every movement, there is one person who stands out as the face of said movement. This person may not be the most vocal or the most celebrated, and behind the scenes, and sometimes in front of the scenes, they are often ridiculed, admonished and shunned until history reverses course to prop them up as heroes.
Given the severe identity crisis engulfing the Democratic Party, it makes sense that a Joe Biden 2020 run seems plausible. The party’s stubborn refusal to let go of white, working-class voters who voted for Donald Trump strengthens Biden’s candidacy for some party elites who can’t see that its future rests in the…
Hindsight is 20-20, but with respect to the 2016 presidential election, former Vice President Joe Biden seems to have cataracts when assessing what might have been.

All this week, social media timelines, television viewing and news outlets will be flooded with praise, retrospectives and syrupy-sweet tributes to Barack Obama, lamenting the end of his tenure as president of the United States. I can already tell you that there will be a “speck of dust” caught in my eye all day on…
The greatest bromance ever told got even sweeter Thursday when President Barack Obama shocked Vice President Joe Biden by awarding him the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
Vice President Joe Biden knows how to keep a crowd on the edge of their seats. After wrapping a Senate session Monday, Biden was asked if he would run for office.
Vice President Joe Biden, like much of America, has had enough of Donald Trump. During a stump speech last week, Biden said, forget debating the vile Trump; he wished he could beat his ass.
RETRACTED (6/12/18):
The political campaign season has a funny way of giving everyone long-term memory loss. Your friends at work can remember the latest Hillary Clinton gaffe or Donald Trump stumble that happened 48 hours (or, in Trump’s case, five minutes) ago because it circulates on Twitter and Facebook. But when it comes to some…
Two days late and a few dollars short, but we realize that folks feel like talking about what they heard and saw last night from Uncle Joe, my new Uncle Tim, and homey-for-life, Barry O. Consider this a spot to sound off, talk shit, or run like the wolves freely in a DNC Day Three Open Thread. And because we learn,…
President Barack Obama and first lady Michelle Obama will travel to Dallas on Tuesday to attend an interfaith memorial service held in memory of the five police officers who were killed Friday during an attack at what had been a peaceful protest, the White House reports.
1. Although Bill Clinton has been a honorary Black American so long that he's basically honorary Black emeritus, Joe Biden is the one who truly deserves that honor. Because he's been an outspoken advocate for civil rights. And because along from Huck from Scandal, he's the only other White man to willingly serve under…
