Clyburn giving a very emotional, moving speech endorsing Biden, now on MSNBC.

His speech is giving me chills.

I'll post video as soon as I can find clips.

his endorsement speech will move some voters to Joe Biden. Not just African Americans in South Carolina but people of all colors across this country. He condensed in 2 short sentences why Joe can beat Trump "We know Joe Biden. Most importantly , JOE KNOWS US. "
