You know the liberal media is rooting for Joe Biden because they completely ignore insanely racist stuff like this. Biden was asked if he would commit to picking a woman of color for his VP and he basically said that non-white females may be too incompetent for the position. He is however open to selecting a Republican as his running mate, which is an odd thing for a guy running for the democratic party nomination to say. At this point there is literally nothing Joe Biden could say that would make the liberal media criticize him.
In an NPR interview, Biden was asked about his potential running mate. Like all questions, Biden didn’t give a great answer:
NPR: If you are the nominee, can you commit to selecting a person of color to be on the ticket?
Biden: I have not a little tiny bit of a problem picking a person of color or a woman.
NPR: Can you commit to that?
Biden: No, I can’t commit to that.
NPR: How come?
Biden: Because here’s what I know about vice presidents — you have to have someone who works with you, who believes exactly like you do on the strategic notions that you support. The reason why the historians are writing about Barack Obama and I having the closest relations of everybody is we trusted each other completely. He was able to give me entire chunks of responsibility where I didn’t have to report back because he knew I knew what he was thinking.
Seriously, no historians are writing that Obama and Biden had the “closet relations of everybody.” Also, did you notice that he said a VP has to be trustworthy and capable of handling responsibility? These are the reasons he gave for not committing to picking a woman of color for his running mate. In other words, he doesn’t trust women of color and thinks they can’t handle responsibility. That means he thinks women of color are untrustworthy and incompetent.
If President Trump had given a similar answer, the liberal media would have lost their shit and bitched about it for a solid month. Biden says it and they couldn’t care less.
On a related note, Biden may not trust women of color to be his VP, but he wouldn’t mind a Republican:

At a campaign stop in New Hampshire on Monday a woman asked if Biden would consider a Republican as his running mate.
“The answer is I would, but I can’t think of one now,” replied Biden.
It’s probably not a coincidence that Biden couldn’t remember which Republicans he would consider at a rally in New Hampshire, a place he thought was Vermont in August and Iowa in December.
“No, no, no, no, no, no, no look the hair on me. No, I’m serious, here’s what I mean. Let me fenna. You know there’s some really decent Republicans that are out there still, but here’s the problem right now with the well-known ones, they’ve got to step up,” said Biden.
I don’t know what “fenna” means or why Biden was talking about his hair, but the basic message is that Republicans need to step up their game if they want to be Joe Biden’s running mate. It’s unclear what that means either, or why any well-known Republicans would even want to be Biden’s VP.
All of this points to an incredible bizarre campaign strategy. Biden is trying to get the whacko leftist woke professionally aggrieved liberals of the democratic party to pick him as their nominee by saying women of color are incompetent and can’t be trusted, but he may choose a Republican as his running mate. Historians may not be writing about his bromance with Obama, but one day they will credit him with running the worst campaign of all time.
