Biden: Running away from Obama in 2016 would be ‘mistake’ for Dems

Vice President Joseph R. Biden said Democratic presidential candidates in 2016 should embrace President Obama’s economic policies and “run on what we have done” instead of running away from the administration.

“In my view, those seeking to lead the nation should protect and defend and run, yes run, on what we’ve done and own what we have done,” Mr. Biden said in a speech in Des Moines, Iowa. “Stand for what we have done. Acknowledge what we have done. And be judged on what we have done, if we have any chance for continued resurgence in 2016.”

He added, “Some say that would amount to a third term of the president. I call it sticking with what works.”

Joe is trying to sucker in the Obamatards. He still thinks he has a shot at the nomination.

He might be right. Once Hillary is done sucking up all the money and declines to run, their party nomination process will be a thirty ring circus.

Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt.

Abraham Lincoln

16th president of US (1809 - 1865)

But of course Biden can’t take advice from a Republican president.

Obama oversaw the economy where 1 in every 20 adults left the job market, a staggering 5% reduction in the labor pool.

What more needs to be said? Go ahead, do as Biden suggests, run with it. Or if you want to not be the next victim come the election cycle, run against it.

He mistakes the after-office power of Obama. Even his in-office power with respect to national Democrat Party issues is limited. He has severely strained his relationship with it to the point of getting increasing kickback.

The Democrat Party and mainstream media are stuck with having to defend this tyrant, but they also know he is the reason why they were trounced so badly last November.

Biden is just a buffoonish idiot who things he matters and that anything he thinks, says or does actually matters. He still thinks he’s the presumptive nominee. In truth, the Democrat Party, as well as its voters, will just ignore him.

Eventually, he’ll be called into a room and bent over the conference table and be forced to take one for the team.
