In the star search for a solid 2020 candidate, Democrats might have one in former Vice President Joe Biden. He has the experience. Hes well liked among Democrats, he can resonate with white working class voters, and hes part of the Obama-era. He penned a strong op-ed in The Atlantic, which some saw as a sign that the former vice president is mulling a 2020 run. His daughter, Ashley, made the same overtures, but stressed that he still hasnt made up his mind:
Former Vice President Joe Biden's daughter, Ashley, added more fuel to the 2020 speculation mill this week, saying that she thinks her father is considering a run for president.
Asked in an interview with Women's Wear Daily if her father will make a bid for the White House, Ashley Biden said, "I hope so."
However, she cautioned that he has not made up his mind yet and a decision on an actual run could be a ways off.
"Right now, his focus is on the (Biden) Foundation and Cancer Moonshot, as well as getting other Democrats elected. He's not there. He's taking it day by day after the loss of my dear beloved brother (Beau)," she said.
"He'll make a decision when that time comes," she continued. "A lot can happen in four years and we know this as a family. If he is in good health, knock on wood, and seeing what the landscape is at the time, yeah, I think he is considering it."

a bunch of old farts who ruined the dem party keep driving it into the ground
Biden, Hillary, please stay in the limelight
Stand up Chuck!
I for one, am really looking forward to the video compilation of all the times that Creepy Joe couldn’t keep his hands off any female in the vicinity.
He did best Ryan in their debate so he isn’t the dumbest guy in DC.
You know someone on here has it. Handy joe.
He’s the wrong color and “gender.”
“He did best Ryan in their debate so he isnt the dumbest guy in DC.”
2nd dumbest?
Really, I think he was fed questions in advance.
Hell be 77 years old. .................... OMG, the new 65? I remember one of the world leaders who was much older and did wonders. Conrad Adenauer! Age is just a number. Look at Obama he was in his 40’s, and still screwed up.
Grope and Shames
Hell be 77 years old.
**************
The two oldest Presidents when they took office. Many were in their 50s.
Trump .....70 years, 220 days
Reagan ... 69 years, 349 days

Could be. Could also be that the “smart” people in DC are simply idiots. The latter would explain a lot.
Yes, FR tends to an echo chamber sometimes...
Joe the Plagiarist can have LieaWatha as his Veep candidate.
The dems have two years to find the right candidate.
Remember, they came up with Obama out of nowhere, knocking out the Clinton machine for eight years.
I don’t think an old school, geriatric white politician will do the trick for them these days. And that includes Biden and Hillary.
“behind closed door, hes a dangerous egomaniac...”
He is like most politicians in that regard. Politics attracts narcissists, and is one of the easiest paths to fame and power in society - as long as you’re willing to do whatever is necessary to sustain your rise in the ranks and hold on to your position. Calling politics ‘public service’ is like calling gang leaders ‘youth counselors’.
——Calling politics public service is like calling gang leaders youth counselors.——
That’s a great analogy...
Consider it “borrowed” ...
My pleasure.
