Vice President Joe Biden can’t think of a good reason why he shouldn’t run for president. “There’s no obvious reason for me why I think I should not run,” he said in an interview that aired on CNN’s “New Day” on Friday.

Biden can't think of reason not to run Axelrod: Scandal led to CPAC invite Kerry gives Caps an Olympic sendoff Obama tapes Leno last show video He will make his final decision in summer 2015 based on whether he is the “best qualified” person to focus on two things: “giving ordinary people a fighting change to make it” and a “sound foreign policy.”

“I think there’s a future for this country. I know people think I am too optimistic. But it is incredible — there’s so much just within our grasp. Doesn’t mean that I’m the only guy that can do it, but if no one else, I think, can, and I think I can, then I will, and if I don’t, I won’t,” he said.

He’s missed out on the nomination every single time he’s thrown his hat in the ring. I’d call Biden a retard, but that would be an insult to the mentally challenged.

That would have been acceptable and accurate.

I suggest that Plugs go ahead and run. Let him and Her Thighness slug it out, mano y mano. Toss the Moonbeam Idiot Jerry Brown into the mix, as well.

That should be a hoot to watch.

Crackhead Joe will have some legal problems that will take him down.

Biden can't possibly get the nomination, but it will be fun to watch him stumble around stepping on his tongue and slamming Hildebeast.

IF the GOP Establishment chooses to saddle us with Lardass Christie or Jeb Bush, I would say that there isn’t any difference at all.

Like all the good and loyal demdoummies, “primary” him in.

I’d love to hear the debates between a conservative and ‘ole patches”.

Here’s a reason Joe:

Last time you ran for president in the Dem Primary you finished with 1% of the vote.

I will say, in fairness of all the Dems running I liked you the best.

The reason Joe should not run is the one he can’t think of.
