Former Vice President Joe Biden (D) is likely to make a decision on whether he will run for the presidency in 2020 within the next two weeks, according to a New York Times report.
Biden has reportedly told those close to him that he does not feel other potential Democratic presidential contenders could beat President Trump.
The former vice president has been contacting supporters and allies over the last few weeks, the Times reported.
One Democrat he spoke to recently told the Times that Biden during a phone call said, “If you can persuade me there is somebody better who can win, I’m happy not to do it. But I don’t see the candidate who can clearly do what has to be done to win."
This would be Biden's third White House bid.
Biden has continually topped 2020 polls, often winning about support from a third of those surveyed, but skeptics say that polls this far out from elections often rely on name recognition.
The former vice president during an appearance in Montana last month said that he believes he is "the most qualified person in the country to be president."
"I’ve been doing this my whole adult life, and the issues that are the most consequential relating to the plight of the middle class and our foreign policy are things that I have — even my critics would acknowledge, I may not be right, but I know a great deal about it,” he said, according to CNN.
I hope he runs. I hope every Democrat elected official over 35 runs. Pass the popcorn.
He’s 77 yrs old , the progressives don’t want old white men. Obama endorse Beto, Biden wasn’t happy, Obama doesn’t want Joe.
Biden Cheshire'd Ryan to death.
With a slow trigger-finger like that, we don't need him as president. He's not a decider. He's a think-about-it'er.
Another term of Obama, no thank you.
Ditto.
Most elected Democrats are probably giving thought to a running anyway.
Besides, we could have every female Democrat candidate accuse him of groping them during the debates...
2 white guys no way
Nobody under the age of 45 would even know about this.
That would be fun.
I would like to see him pick Nancy Pelosi as his VP; then the Dems would have two senile, doddering dolts running together with a combined age of near 160.
I remember 1988 well. There was Biden’s plagiarism, Gary Hart & Monkey Business, the start of Rush Limbaugh because the `fairness doctrine’ expired the year before, Iran-Contra and the crucifixion of Lt Col North, etc. A busy year.
Uncle Joe will never make it to the Iowa Caucus. The Clintonistas are first gonna drive Bernie from the race first and then Plugs!
Many of those little girls Uncle Creepy groped are now coming of age and can speak their minds.
That would drop a bomb or two on his campaign.
Na have to have a woman on the ticket.t
“Don’t worry be happy” was the #1 hit.
Didn’t Joe plagiarize in college, too?
OMG! I can’t take the tension!
I remember his debate with Ryan his entire strategy was to laugh at everything Ryan said. He came off ridiculous but MSM went to work and by the end of the next day the perception became that Biden won.
