Biden said "I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy."
Clean probably wasn't the best word to use. He said he meant fresh. I think he meant unsoiled as in there isn't much dirt on him.
Never use the word articulate to describe a black person. It is often taken to mean that the speaker is surprised that a black person can speak well.

I think it is surprising when they can speak well. And by clean, maybe he meant one without a rap sheet.
