Joe Biden says there's 'no obvious reason why I shouldn't run' for President

Vice President Joe Biden has now said that there is no reason for him not to run for president except for the fact that he likes driving his own car.

'There may be reasons why I don't run, but there's no obvious reason for me why I think I should not run,' Biden told CNN.

Biden, who is 71 and will be 73 at the time of the next election, previously said that he and his wife, Dr Jill Biden, had not had a formal conversation about 2016 and this time he took a different tact in answering the same question.

He said that his best bet on a deadline for the decision would be that he will have a verdict by 'realistically, a year this summer' which would give him just over a year to launch a formal campaign.

'Doesn't mean I'm the only guy who can do it, but no one else I think can, and I think I can then I'll run. If I don't I won't.'

What will Crazy Uncle Joe say next?

He'll probably announce he's created an 'Office of the President Elect' before the 2016 primary even starts.

I do not think Hillary is going to run.

I don't either. Not with Benghazi hanging around her neck.

Hillary's criminal conduct in that atrocity ended her political career and aspirations, no matter how bad libs (and paranoid masochistic Freepers) want her to run.

If the repugnants keep running liberal losers, the Rats could run a turnip and win. Biden might have a chance. He wouldn’t be any worse than the twit we’ve got now.

True dat, but at least we'd be falling out of our seats laughing while the ship goes down.

Even the lowliest low info voters would stay home if that was their choice. Biden/Pelosi would inspire nothing but ridicule across the boards.

Let's hope they go for it!

The truth is not usually obvious to the mentally insane.

Well, we haven't had a mentally deficient buffoon for President yet. Don't you think it's time we gave one a shot?

Well I think the late night talk show hosts deserve a break so why not.

They have been afraid to make jokes about Obama because of the color of his skin. Biden is the whitest white man ever so they would have a field day with the gaffe-o-tron. It would be like shooting fish in a barrel.

From the hilarious comments at the article:

“As long as nobody tells him .. when the next election is, he’ll probably sleep in, then play with his train set and suckle on his sippy-cup that day. But boy oh boy will he be upset a couple months later when he realizes he missed the election!”

Whatever's in it, I'm sure it weighs more than Biden's brain.
