Joseph Biden actually said...

"I was a lifeguard at a predominantly African American pool, and I learned a lot about race relations and the challenges that many people face."

"I never had to save anyone from drowning, thankfully, but being a lifeguard taught me to always be prepared for anything."

"Being a lifeguard is more than just a job. It's a responsibility to the community and a commitment to keeping people safe."

"I regret the pain that I caused with my comments about working with segregationists."
