Looks like Biden’s once safe grip on the black vote, during the primary is slipping away too. African American leaders in South Carolina are accusing Biden of neglecting them, and instead they are supporting another Democrat. Who would that other Democrat be? Creepy looking Tim Ryan who has about as much chance at winning the Democrat nomination as I do.

Former Vice President Joe Biden is being accused of neglecting his longstanding relationships with African American leaders in South Carolina.
Biden, who has struggled to explain his relationship with segregationists and his opposition to busing, lost two prominent and longtime supporters from South Carolina’s black community on Friday to little-known Rep. Tim Ryan (D-OH).NBC News reported that Fletcher Smith and Brandon Brown, who were instrumental in helping Biden organize his presence in that state during his 2008 presidential run, were not inspired to back the frontrunner this time around.
The two men, who recently were invited to a private meeting Biden held with other black leaders in South Carolina, said they were endorsing Ryan because the congressman had proved himself a thoughtful and competent leader.
“Congressman Ryan reached out to me and said, ‘Hey I want to meet with you,’ and actually spent time with me,” Brown told NBC.
