HT: Politico
Vice-President Joe Biden told Democratic donors last week that they should keep him in mind for the distant 2016 Presidential election, which shocked members of the audience because no one thought the suggestion was coming with everyone's attention on the upcoming 2012 election.
I'm greatly shocked and oddly disturbed by the news.
Because not only will Vice-President Biden be seventy-four in 2016, but he has the same chance of defeat in the Democratic Primary as former Vice-President Danforth Quayle had in the competitive 2000 Republican Primary.
I don't believe this suggestion by the Vice-President is to be taken too seriously, because his viewpoints are even more leftist than President Obama - and we see how that is helping the former right now in various presidential opinion surveys.
So what say you about the Vice-President hinting at a 2016 Presidential run?
Good find, Mr. K
