Vice President Joe Biden defended his basketball skills at a Black History Month event in Washington on Tuesday, jokingly telling about 150 attendees, "I may be a white boy, but I can jump."

Biden, who hosted the reception at the Naval Observatory with his wife, Dr. Jill Biden, said that he wanted to team up with former NBA star and Sacramento Mayor Kevin Johnson to take on President Obama, The Washington Post reported.

"I told the president, next game, I've got him," Biden said.

Taking a more serious tone, Biden expressed his disappointment with Voter ID laws passed in Southern states, including North Carolina, Alabama and Texas, saying such laws are evidence of "zealotry" and "hatred," according to a White House pool report.

Racist doesn't cut it, Biden and many of his fellow travelers aren't racists. There should be a term for those who view the world through race based glasses.

White men can’t jump. Black men can’t read.

I don’t see any way that statement is NOT racist.

But, he’s a democRat - he’ll get a pass.

Joe ‘the schmuck’ BIden reminds me of a kid who'll say anything he thinks the older, cool kids want to hear, in order to be accepted in their clique.

I couldn't care less about the 'jump' comment. It's his disappointment with voter ID laws passed in an effort to protect one of our most sacred freedoms that he should be booted for. There is ONE and only ONE possible reason to oppose voter ID laws.

Bingo. With the idiots running the RNC, guaranteed we're looking at the next potus.
