Line 247: − ===="Many fine people"==== − During the 1993 Senate confirmation hearing for Supreme Court nominee [[Ruth Bader Ginsburg]], Chairman Biden of the Senate Judiciary Committee made a commented about the United Daughters of the Confederacy (UDC), an organization committed to preserving Confederate statues with ties to the [[Ku Klux Klan]]. − − Biden began his remarks by referring to a speech made on the Senate floor by Sen. Howell Heflin (D-Ala.), who was speaking in support of efforts by Sen. [[Carol Moseley Braun]] (D-Ill.) to deny renewal of a Confederate flag design patent to the UDC. − {{quotebox-float|“I, too, heard that speech and, for the public listening to this, the senator made a very moving and eloquent speech.

So I would have, as they say in the southern part of my state, I had an altar call. I had a come to the Lord meeting. You think I'm joking? I'm not joking. Maybe you know about me. I've been doing this a long time. I've known every single major world leader in every country for the past 20 years. And I know a lot of them well...don't tell me, in Mexico, you expect to get the same kind of treatment that we give other democracies, and then you don't act in a democratic way. Not on my watch., Not on my watch.<ref>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR6wdwkaWGA</ref>}}
