        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Who needs comedy when you have politics?</p><p>In the months leading up to the 2020 presidential election, a 2009 HBO clip of late comedian and actor Robin Williams talking about then-Vice President Joe Biden has resurfaced online, quickly going viral on Twitter.</p><p>In the <a href="https://twitter.com/mel_faith1/status/1290795884981243904" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">30-second video</a>, Williams, <strong>who would have turned 69</strong> last month, doesn&#8217;t mince words.</p><p>&#8220;There&#8217;s always ramblin&#8217; Joe Biden,&#8221; said Williams in a stand-up routine. &#8220;Joe says s - - t that even people with [Tourette syndrome] go, &#8216;No.&#8217; &#8221;</p><p>The resurfaced bit began circulating this week, and it came just days before Biden — the presumptive Democratic nominee — <strong>gave a disastrous interview</strong> with black and Hispanic journalists. During it, Biden said, &#8220;Unlike the African American community, with notable exceptions, the Latino community is an incredibly diverse community with incredibly different attitudes.&#8221;</p><p>Biden has long been known for his verbal blunders, and he <strong>addressed this most recent gaffe</strong> on Thursday night.</p><p><a href="https://twitter.com/JoeBiden/status/1291540507416559617?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">In a tweet</a>, Biden said, &#8220;In no way did I mean to suggest the African American community is a monolith—not by identity, not on issues, not at all.”</p><p>“Throughout my career I’ve witnessed the diversity of thought, background, and sentiment within the African American community,” he went on. “It’s this diversity that makes our workplaces, communities, and country a better place.”</p><p>In the 2009 routine, Williams pushed the matter further.</p><p>&#8220;Joe is like your uncle who&#8217;s on a new drug and hasn&#8217;t got the dosage right,&#8221; he joked. &#8220;I&#8217;m proud to work with Barack America — &#8216;He&#8217;s not a superhero, you idiot — come here!&#8217; &#8221;</p><p>Williams, who died in 2014, was known for his support of the Democratic Party.</p>]]></content:encoded>
