President Joe Biden made a puzzling statement during a recent interview, where he described himself as the “first black woman to serve with a black president” and the first president to be “elected statewide in Delaware when I was a kid.” This confusing remark left listeners of Pennsylvania radio show WURD scratching their heads as Biden seemed to struggle to articulate his achievements in the black community, particularly in relation to his role as former President Barack Obama’s vice president and his selection of Vice President Kamala Harris.
“By the way, I’m proud to be, as I said, the first vice president, first black woman, to serve with a black president,” he told host Andrea Lawful-Sanders.
“I’m proud of the first black woman in the Supreme Court,” he added, referring to Justice Kentanji Brown Jackson.

Before the racial controversy, Biden also highlighted the achievement of being elected when he was young.
“I remember as a Catholic kid growing up in an area where we didn’t like Catholics… I’m the first president elected statewide in the state of Delaware, when I was a kid,” Biden told Lawful-Sanders.
