Interesting! Bard just spits out a reasonable answer right away, before going on to frame the historical and present context around the issue:
In a 1977 interview with the New York Times, Joe Biden said that he opposed busing to achieve racial integration in schools because he feared it would create a "racial jungle." He said that he believed that black students would be better off in schools with mostly black students, and that white students would be better off in schools with mostly white students.
Biden's comments were widely criticized, and he has since apologized for them. [Several paragraphs of context follow.]
I think it misattributes it to the New York Times, however; I searched the NYT archives and couldn't find an interview with Biden.
