Ph, I'm not going to re-litigate Joe Biden's legacy with you. His centrality to welfare reform and mass incarceration, alone, are damning. His role in financial de-regulation and the ensuing financial crisis seals the deal, for me. Yes, any piece of legislation is a "collective act" (if we're going to get sociological about it), but the names on that legislation mean something. If anything, then he's guilty of going with the zeitgeist, which just happened to criminalize, incarcerate, and dispossess communities of color for a generation.
