Listen: Joe Biden says he is ‘first Black woman to serve with a Black president’
Joe Biden has caused concern with a new blunder that saw him suggest he was the “first Black woman to serve alongside a Black president.”
The US president was appearing on Philadelphia’s Wurd radio station as part of 4 July celebrations, when he spoke of his achievements.
“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 said, confusing his achievements alongside Barack Obama with Kamala Harris’.
It comes shortly after denial that he’d be quitting the presidential race over concerns about his health.
