He decided to make some remarks, and here they are.<\/p>\n<p>BIDEN: When I came home after graduating from Delaware and then going on to law school at Syracuse, I came home after law school to Wilmington, to our county.

It always amazes me that every Democrat has some tie-in to Martin Luther King or Bobby Kennedy or JFK or Sirhan Sirhan. You take your pick. They have a tie-in to John Lewis.<\/p>\n<p>They may have a tie-in to Bull Connor. They may have a tie-in to James Edwards. It\u2019s just fascinated me. So here\u2019s Plugs. &#8220;When I came home after graduating from Delaware and then going on to law school at Syracuse, I came home after law school to Wilmington, to our county.&#8221; No, you didn\u2019t leave the country. What is this, &#8220;I came&#8230;&#8221;? He\u2019s come home twice here.<\/p>\n<p>(summarized) &#8220;When I came home after graduating from Delaware and then going on to law school at Syracuse, I came home after law school to Wilmington, to our county.&#8221; You were never out of the country, unless you went to Syracuse in Italy, which I guess is possible. He wouldn\u2019t know. &#8220;It had gone dark. When I came home after law school to Wilmington and came home to our country, it had gone dark. Our country had gone dark when I came home.&#8221; But you never left the country.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Dr. King was assassinated. Wilmington had been in flames. The National Guard&#8230;&#8221; A-ha, there it is. &#8220;The National Guard patrolled the streets. And that turmoil inspired me to become a public defender, a step I never anticipated would lead me toward this improbable journey.&#8221; They always have &#8212; every Democrat always has &#8212; one of these sob stories where something horrible happened and it motivated them to work for nothing, which is what a public defender does.<\/p>\n<p>I mean, a public defender works for essentially nothing, pro bono cases. It makes them sound like such wonderful people, such good people. Oh, they saw so much suffering. They saw so much sadness. They saw such flames! They saw the country when they came back to the country after graduating from Delaware and graduating from Syracuse.<\/p>\n<p>And they got back to the country and they saw the flames, Martin Luther King, and said, &#8220;Oh, my God! I gotta give my services away and then tell people that\u2019s why I got into politics to become president. So that\u2019s his story. He\u2019s sticking to it. I\u2019m just amazed how they get away with this.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>RUSH: Isn&#039;t it funny the way Democrats always have a current-events story with ties to their quite younger past that serve as the motivation for them getting into politics?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":49,"featured_media":379304,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_et_pb_use_builder":"","_et_pb_old_content":"","_et_gb_content_width":"","ngg_post_thumbnail":0},"categories":[12,1],"tags":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v17.6 -
