No amount of growth or good intentions will change this fact.
ll five of these things are simultaneously true:
Joe Biden is the Democratic front-runner and may well be the nominee.
He is by far the favorite candidate among black voters.
He was a loyal vice president to Barack Obama, and the two men seem to have shared a deep and true friendship.
He, like the other Democratic candidates, would be a vast improvement over Donald Trump.
And, Biden’s positioning on racial issues has been problematic.
