I don't think crazy old Joe wants the job, but the Democrat party is getting desperate.

With Hillary's scandal and declining polls and Bernie's extremist socialist agenda? It wouldn't be all that surprising.

"Meanwhile, a group of about 50 Democratic donors and supporters has written to Biden urging him to run, Reuters said. The letter calls on Biden to “finish the job” of the Obama administration."
Thats one thing they can count on from Creepy Joe, finishing off our country. This dufus has never had a coherent thought in his life. Just another Obama stooge.

I don't see Biden as a viable candidate. The under-30s who came out for Obama might show up for Sanders, but certainly won't pull the lever for Biden.
Gore is likely the only candidate who can pull the Dem votes away from Sanders, and there's not even a whisper of a rumor of him being interested.

Why doesn't Obama run? He could make an executive order overruling the Constitution.

Well if you read the article, you would see that they are quoting Wall Street Journal when they make that claim.

The polls don't support this belief:
Biden isn't stealing any votes from Sanders.

Biden technically isn't even running yet and Bernie still is scarily close to him after months of campaigning.

Let's keep in mind that Biden hasn't officially announced running yet, and yet he's still rising in the polls.
