Biden: I regret not running for president
By Brooke Seipel - 03/25/17 04:55 PM EDT
Former Vice President Joe Biden late Friday night said he regretted not running for the presidency, predicting if he had secured the Democratic nomination he could have won against Donald Trump.
"I had planned on running for president and although it would have been a very difficult primary, I think I could have won, he said. Maybe not, I dont know.
"I was fairly confident that if I had become the Democratic nominee, I would have had a good chance to be president," Biden continued.
Do I regret not being president? Yes, Biden said. "I was the best qualified."

Like a red-headed stepchild. That’s how hard he’d have been beaten. Like a rented mule.
Yes, America needs a President who has his anal hairs stapled to his scalp.
The fact that this fool was a senator says much about our political system. Oh, forgot about Pelosi, the Hillabeast, Feinstein, and Boxer.
Most of us regret you are still making urine mr, Biden, you Obama boot licker.
...and staples in the brain underneath his scalp.
Don't be another Juan McCain crazy.
Hey Joe Stand Up!
You can run with Fauxahontus in 2020.
I’ll get pummeled here but I think Biden would have Won if he ran.
Hillary was crooked, a liar and just plain unlikeable and she still got Millions more Votes than Trump.
Just my opinion.
Say what you want with all of Hillary’s baggage and super un likability, Uncle Joe would have won and been a tool for the left. What did Hillary have on him to talk him out of it. It was his for the taking
If he now regrets not running, its only because he’s forgotten that the reason he didn’t run in the first place was because he didn’t want to die of Arkancide.
LMAO.
Yes, Slow-Joe the Plagiarizing Gaffe Machine would have done so much better than the Hildebeast.
I’ll bet he still thinks that was the case about 1988 as well.
Me too, Joe. Elections just haven’t been as funny since Pat Paulsen passed away.
Maybe so, but I think Trump would have run a very different campaign against him.
Well, THAT’S easy to say now.
I wonder what makes Biden believe he’d have survived a primary vs Hillary. Don’t people who threaten her aspirations have a tendency to meet untimely ends?
> I think I could have won, he said. <
Biden is right. He’s very popular with blue-collar, rust-belt workers. If Biden would have ran, he would have taken enough of those workers to deny Trump Pennsylvania, and perhaps Michigan as well.
And Biden had none of the baggage corrupt Hillary had. We are lucky that Biden chose not to run.
Or take a dive and get a $600,000 dollar lake home!
