FILE – In this July 23, 1986 file photo Sen. Joe Biden, D-Del., tells the Senate Foreign Relations Committee and Secretary of State George Shultz that U.S. policy toward South Africa amounted to a shameful lack of backbone on Capitol Hill in Washington. Biden, in a sharp exchange with Shultz, said “blacks have tried everything available to them in the last 20 years,” and nothing has worked. (AP Photo/J. Scott Applewhite, File)
