First and foremost sealed the border that Biden said needed Congress to pass legislation before he could do anything.

TortieMama : Addressing black men as brothers by another black male can be considered a term of endearment and acknowledgement of a shared culture or experiences. It is not thought of as indicating in any way, shape, or form, a bias or hatred of other races and cultures.

eighteen : Yes they do. As do fraternities. They in ceremonies address one another as "brother". I am in a sorority and we do call each other "sisters". This is so clearly a gathering based on politics. Not the greek system or christianity. Very different arena's.

cheryltom : He was so embarassing. He was a puppet. Either confused or lying when he said he needed Congress. SMH.

First of all, we were speaking of Obama. Secondly, immigration issues here are insular. What has 47 done for the benefit of mankind?

TortieMama : So, why would you take what a Black Man says to a room full of "Brothers" and call it racial bias?
 
Is it bias when it's done outside of the context in which you placed it?

eighteen :
I do not have an issue with the use of the word brother… but with the lecturing and condescending tone. Well, I don't really have an issue… it backfired. That is is.
 
BTW although I may refer to other bikers as brothers and sisters, I don't use those terms to address my friends. But that isn't really relevant… it has nothing to do with Obama's lecturing the brothers.
