“I was vetted by him”: Joe Biden in a new campaign speech today is expected to say he's 'changed' since his days serving as a senator in the 1970s, leaning into his relationship with former President Barack Obama.
Joe Biden in a new campaign speech Saturday will say he's"changed" since his days serving as a senator in the 1970s, leaning into his relationship with former President Barack Obama to help defend his record in public service after facing criticism on his past political positions, including issues of race.
The Democratic presidential candidate intends to use his speech at a campaign event in South Carolina -- where black voters made up about 61% of the Democratic primary electorate in 2016 -- to point to his record on civil rights and accomplishments in the administration of the nation's first black president."I was vetted by him and selected by him," Biden will say of Obama, according to excerpts of his prepared remarks.
