The question was about inequality in schools. And that was the question Biden answered, explaining what could be done now. It was way too big a question to answer in a very short time, so he started with preparing for school.
Biden's answer basically referred to what Obama was trying to do.
And whether or not you or Blow used the word "racist," much of the criticism aimed at Biden has accused him of racism because he referred to vocabulary -- which Obama also referred to -- and because he mentioned social workers going into people's homes, which Obama also thought was a good idea to help prepare at-risk children for school.
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
