JOE BIDEN TELLS CROWD ‘I’M A CANDIDATE FOR THE UNITED STATES SENATE’ IN CONFUSED CAMPAIGN SPEECH

 

Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden has raised concern after he delivered a confused campaign speech in South Carolina, saying he was a “candidate for the United States Senate” and that people could “vote for the other Biden” if they did not like him.

His speech at the First in the South Dinner on Monday came ahead of the presidential primary in the state on Saturday.
