Like Bernie Sanders, Joe Biden is a rich, old, white man in a political party which peddles the ignorant lie that rich old white men are responsible for all the evil in the world. (Which is why we all feel very endangered on golf courses on Nantucket but perfectly safe in the South Bronx and East L.A..)
Why should anyone in that party listen to anything they have to say?
This is the reason that obviously rich white people like Robert Francis (aka "Beto") O'Routke and Elizabeth Warren pretend not to be white. That's the only chance they have within their own ranks, at least at the national level.
If those hypocrites actually believed the hateful, bigoted rhetoric spewed daily by their own party, they would just get out of Kamala Harris's way and throw all their weight behind her.
But of course they won't, until they have to. They are very generous indeed with other people's alleged "white privilege," but remarkably parsimonious when it comes to their own!
