Biden's visit with Raleigh family over Cook Out trays featured in campaign video
Democratic President Joe Biden's campaign has said it would target North Carolina with heavy campaign advertising in his push to win the battleground state in the 2024 election. North Carolina was the closest state Biden lost in 2020.
Posted — UpdatedEric Fitts is one of the tens of thousands of Americans who have had some student loan debt erased by Biden's actions. The video Biden posted Monday, however, focuses instead on the kids' plans. As they eat chicken fingers and burgers, Carter tells Biden about his middle school basketball team, and Christian talks about a high school program that's giving him the chance to go see college campuses and learn more about the business world.
"My favorite thing is this business academy I'm in," he tells Biden after his dad presses him to talk about school. "We travel. We go to N.C. State, Wake Tech. We went to this small dry-cleaning business. And it's just cool. It's a great experience."
Biden expresses his admiration for those opportunities, then wraps up the video telling the teens to go easy on their dad.
"Dads are hard to raise," he says. “Once you're a teenager, you've got to be patient with us."
