Schools with FEWER black people perform better because there are FEWER black people in them

…according to this guy…

“There’s less than one percent of the population of Iowa that is African American. There is probably less than four of five percent that are minorities. What is in Washington? So look, it goes back to what you start off with, what you’re dealing with,” Biden told the Washington Post at the time.

Is he right?

Biden must be the front runner if Fox is digging up articles from 12 years ago.

Next thing you know they’ll be looking into his “tax figures” from the mid 80s!!!

BDS!!!

or making up stories about his college party days in the 1920’s…

Then they would hold back his racist comments until he’s the nominee.

Sounds like presidential material to me.

Can’t believe I am going to say this. I do agree with this part of the comment.

“When you have children coming from dysfunctional homes,… Half this education gap exists before the kid steps foot in the classroom.”

However, growing up in a relatively poor area that was similar demographics to Iowa, the problem is colorless.

"When you have children coming from dysfunctional homes,…”

Some people look at black people and that’s what they automatically think.

There’s a word for that.

Fewer.

What was your school’s excuse?

Fewer.

BTW, my Jr high school was 75-80% Hispanic and high school was around 65-70% hispanic.

Biden is about 20 points ahead of his nearest rival so clearly giving the Whitehouse pause for thought. Giuliani has also announced he’s going to the Ukraine to ask them to help investigate Biden (asking a foreign country to investigate a political rival to help Trump…hmmm that sounds familiar).

Maybe they are unrelated to the election though and Fox and Guliani are just trying to help the country.

Or this stuff is being put out by Dem rivals.

Or a false flag operation. Get all your skeletons out now while you are ahead and have lots of runway. Not too much at once though. Smelling hair one month. Anita Hill the next. Racism after that dies down. Hold off on the Ukraine thing for now.

every time you start a thread like this, you reveal what you really are, instead of what you pretend to be.

I’m really a person who would rather not have a president Biden.

I also am really a person who finds this stuff funny and entertaining.

Is that what you meant?

Find me an educator who disagrees with this statement:

“…when you have children coming from homes where there’s no books, where the mother from the time they’re born doesn’t talk to them – as opposed to the mother…who’s sitting out there and talks to them, the kid starts out with a 300 word larger vocabulary at age three. Half this education gap exists before the kid steps foot in the classroom.”

I removed one word from that quote, “Iowa”.

So when you see a black kid you assume they have no books at home and their mother doesn’t talk to them? That’s what you think about black people?

There’s a word for that.

You are conflating a couple ideas here - to recognize there is an acheivement gap in education between whites / blacks and hispanics is not racist. It would be racist to state that the achievement gap was because of or caused by the racial differences.

Nope. Nowhere in my snippet did I reference that would at all apply to one specific group.

You fell into the lazy trap of wanting to immediately assign “words” and intention. My approach would be to first agree that what is in bold is fact. Then we would look at which houses fall into that category. Then we would address underlying problems.

Facts. Not “words”.
