Should Biden run for re election if he wants to?

[ColinC]

Yes. He has been great at advocating for the working class and bringing this country back from the hellhole we were headed to under Trump.

1. This is not 2024 election season. wait until next summer

[Bettie]

2. An incumbent has an enormous advantage

even that orange man had an advantage.

[CrispyQ]

3. What's with all the Biden running in 2024 posts? Let's secure the House & Senate first! -nt

[JohnSJ]

6. Absolutely, but those 2024 posts, reporting misleading approval polls serve a purpose, and it is NOT

a good one.

The fact that Roe V Wade, along with other draconian things this SC has done with the republican blessing, in spite of most Americans against those decisions, plus the complicity of many republicans involved in the insurrection, etc., setup a strawman poll to distract away from what actually matters, to demoralize and divide Democrats, in hopes that the midterms will disuade Democrats from turning out in large numbers in the midterms

[ColinC]

14. I think there is an agenda behind them, and that's because he has actually been effective

At helping change the status quo for the better.

Or at least the propaganda that influences those polls.

[JohnSJ]

17. This close to the midterms, I agree 100% with your assessment

[Raven123]

4. I do wish the topic of re-election was set aside until after this cycle

[snowybirdie]

5. Why oh why

Are we suddenly seeing this b.s. here? It's 2022 and this question is another fox trying to get into our henhouse again.

[Bucky]

10. I can only think of nine reasons that people are so worried about 2024

[snowybirdie]

13. We have to work our

butts off THIS year to make sure there is a democratic country in 2024. Priority time.

[Bucky]

16. Of course, but nothing posted on DU is going to affect that one way or another

Posting on a discussion board does it affect the election one whit.
If you're concerned, go get involved.

If you are involved, thank you. Why don't you post about that to inspire others to do the same?

[W_HAMILTON]

22. Bullshit.

Tell that to all the Russian and Republican trolls on here and throughout social media.

"Posting on a discussion board doesn't affect the election one whit."

Imagine being that naive -- or pretending to be... -- at this point, after having lived through 2016.

[Caliman73]

7. Any Democratic Party politician who wins the primary will have my vote.

If it is President Biden as our incumbent, he has my vote. If President Biden does not choose to run, then whoever wins the Democratic Primary has my vote.

[maxsolomon]

8. He needs to decide next year.

If he doesn't, Gavin Newsom will be the candidate.

[robodruid1]

12. Why not the VP? It should be her turn. (NT)

[maxsolomon]

15. Because I don't believe she can win the nomination or the general.

She is certainly qualified, but other Dems are not going to get out of the way like they did for HRC in 2016.

Welcome to DU.

[Bucky]

9. His body, his choice

My vote, my choice

What a stupid poll

[LetMyPeopleVote]

11. Joe Biden- 92% of Democrats said they would vote for me if I ran again."

Link to tweet

[57sneirno]

18. Absolutely. I would certainly vote for him.

So yes, whatever he wants.

[kacekwl]

19. Of course he should.

Can't we just leave this nonsense behind and concentrate on now and the midterms.

[Sympthsical]

20. Not a lot of purpose in the poll

The demographics in this space are much, much, much different than the demographics of the party as a whole.

Much.

[brooklynite]

21. Are you thinking he might run if he DOESN'T want to?

Why is “if he wants to” relevant?
