Original Note:
This photo was taken in 2008 at a West Virginia campaign event. In the car w/Biden are Sen. Robert Byrd (seated), Sen. Jay Rockefeller & Gov. Joe Manchin. While Sen. Byrd was indeed a former member of the Klan, he called his time in the Klan the greatest mistake of his life. https://www.reuters.com/article/uk-factcheck-biden-clan/false-claim-joe-biden-pictured-with-grand-wizard-of-ku-klux-klan-idUSKBN2103C3
