Sen. Harris Claims Black Leaders Like Booker, Obama Owe Their Success to Mandated Federal Busing

‘Had those segregationists had their way — ‘

RUSH EXCERPT:

HARRIS: “That is simply false. And let’s be very clear about this, when vice president Biden was in the United States Senate working with segregationists to oppose bussing which was the vehicle by which we would integrate America’s public schools, had I been in the Senate at that time I would have been on the other side of the aisle. Had those segregationists had their way, I would not be a member of the United States Senate, Cory Booker would not be a member of the United States Senate and President Obama would not have been in a position to nominate him to the place he holds. On that issue, we could not be more apart. The vice president has still failed to acknowledge that it was wrong to take the position that he took at that time.”
