biden hoped them along. some of you are old enough to remember the ad. everybody looked at that handset and said that is so incredibly racially charged. it's a scare tactic and a very subtle way and that's pretty much to take on the take on that ad but the fact is in 1988 joe biden got on that boat and picked up the same thing and said it is to lock him up in jail. if you heard what he did everybody would want to lock him up but this might have been an opportunity to sort of stem the tide to offer some balance to mitigate this push by offering the other side. there are other ways. what i find really troubling is a 1994 when congress was putting in place what bill clinton called the toughest and smartest crime law ever enacted in the history of the country to racial justice advocates that i showed you before but they wanted to do as clinton was expanding the death penalty to dozens more they wanted to include a racial justice measure and it would have said okay for those who are in states where there are stat
