Oh, I don't disagree for a moment that in other than our "politically correct" society, Biden's comments are meaningless...not offensive, actually complimentary to Obama. The term "clean" used to mean fresh, sharp and bright.... It is a tempest in a teapot, but nobody in either party is allowed to just talk anymore. We have to modulate everything we say throught the prism of correctness. My point is that Biden is dumb politically. He should have known that saying Obama was the "first" African-American to do x, y or z,...he was going to get some blowback from it. He may be right...but politically it does not wash in the democratic party mainstream.
