Obama'a Reaction to Biden

Obama released a statement in response to Biden's earlier comments:

I didn't take Senator Biden's comments personally, but obviously they are historically inaccurate. After all, we've had presidential candidates like Jesse jackson, Shirley Chisholm, Carol Mosely Braun and Al Sharpton. They gave a voice to many important issues through their campaigns and no one would call them inarticulate.

Hits the right note, and never once used the r-word. Perfect.
