Nowhere did it say that he said he was considering running.

It stated that he has been urged to run, and that he didn’t say he wasn’t.

It also states that he has called for competition which I do not agree with but there have been people on this forum that have made those calls not to mention the “I like Biden… But hos age” posts right here.

Dean is NOT a threat to Biden. At all. But figuring out where you can start to line things up for 2028 or beyond isn’t the dumbest thing for him OR our party.

I don’t think he should run and until he even says that HE himself is thinking of running , shitting on a dem rep seems pretty stupid to me. So far it has come out that he has been urged by some to run.
