“Since the early 1970s, Joe Biden has been a serial liar when it comes to his “work” in the Civil Rights Movement. It’s the equivalent of stolen valor and is fundamentally disqualifying,” wrote Shaun King in his devastating article on Biden’s claims of participation in the civil rights movement. King’s investigation revealed two true statements and 31 lies.
What an odd situation. One presidential candidate, Joe Biden, lies about being involved in civil rights in the 1960’s, while another candidate, Bernie Sanders, has to be pushed to admit that he was heavily involved in the movement and was arrested. At the University of Chicago, he was a leader of the Congress of Racial Equality, a major civil rights group. News accounts from the time had Sanders leading protests over racial segregation.
