Former Vice President Joe Biden would “win overwhelmingly” against President Donald Trump in 2020 and is the only “superstar” the Democrats could run for the White House, a former Democratic National Committee chairman said Sunday.
“There's only one person I can say who will definitely win the election and has a superstar appeal in almost every state in the union, and that's Vice President Biden,” Ed Rendell said on John Catsimatidis’ AM 970 radio show in New York.
“To me it’s clear-cut: Joe Biden is our superstar,” Rendell added. “If he decides to run I think he will win overwhelmingly.”
Rendell, a former Pennsylvania governor who led the DNC from 1999 to 2001, noted that age might be the biggest factor working against Biden, who turned 75 in November. But in a race against the 71-year-old Trump, who is the oldest first-term president in American history, Rendell said age would only be a number.
“Of course, people say [Biden's] too old. But he's only a year and a half older than President Trump, and he's in infinitely better shape,” Rendell said.
“I don't think age would be a factor in a Biden-Trump election.”
Someone who shares Rendell’s work history recently argued the opposite. Howard Dean, who was DNC chair from 2005 to 2009, said last week that he believes old people such as himself need to “get the hell out of politics” for 2020 and make way for a younger generation of leaders. Dean specifically cited Biden and Independent Vermont Senator Bernie Sanders, who is 76, as popular potential candidates who he said are not what the country will need.

Biden the grooper and Liawatha as his VP would be great for our side.
In the 80’s, we had “The Gipper.” In 2020, will we have “The Groper”?
Exactly. The Democrat Party has been over run with far left revolutionary types. They despise the straight white male. I’d be shocked if creepy Joe becomes the nominee.
How is he going to defeat the sitting President Hillary?
Someone owes me a clean-up.
Who??
This time there is absolutely no path to 270.
Yes! Yes! Please, Democrats, please DO run your superstar Biden.
I would not be surprised if Hussein would defeat Trump in 2020.
Such is the wisdom of America.
The winning ticket 2020: Joe Biden and that women who takes a bath in Frootloops.
You have too high an opinion of the American voter. Remember what happened in 2008?
And again in 2012?
“... the old man who can’t keep his hands to himself??
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
That shortcoming may become an effective excuse for clearing this perv of any wrongdoing. Remember that we are dealing with democRATs.
I agree. Bernie Sanders scares me, he’s like the Pied Piper for the government mis-educated.
And the RATs would probably see this happen.
Pedo Joe? No chance.
Start spreading lots of pictures of the creep groping on women and girls. Stop the disease before it spreads.
LOL.

They said the same thing about Hillary in 2016
Actually, the smarter ones should see the writing on the wall and wait for 2024
