Later in his remarks, Biden said he visited a pub that is owned by a member of his family.
"I’m the only Irishman you’ve ever met though that’s never had a drink, so, I'm OK," he quipped. "I’m really not Irish."
According to Fox News, in December, Biden said during a veteran’s town hall, "I may be Irish, but I’m not stupid." Last St. Patrick’s Day, he reportedly made the same remark.
