On Tuesday, former Vice President Joe Biden made a racially-charged gaffe while describing women in the Detroit area, referring to them as “women from the hood.”

Biden made the remarks while speaking at a forum on the future of America’s middle class, which was hosted by the Brookings Institution and the Biden Foundation.

“Ordinary people do extraordinary things,” Biden said. “We become awful elitist, we don’t think ordinary people can do things that, like, program, code.”

“We went we hired some folks to go into the neighborhoods, they picked pick 58 women, turns out, from the hood.”

He says they were GED recipients and they were taught to program and code like it was nothing.

Sure Joe.

It’s more likely they were taught to use applications, not write them. This is no slam on black people, this would be true of any high school dropout. Joe makes it sound like “the hood” (or any other place) has computer programmers in the making just wandering around aimlessly doing nothing, waiting for the government to just give them a chance to unleash their genius.

Joe’s idiocy will have the exact opposite effect of what it is the dope is trying to impart. Most will think they don’t need to go to school. One day the government will just pick them up in a car and train them to be in NASA’s mission control room.
