Mrs. Biden Wants Joe to Run

As further indications that he is leaning toward a bid are leaked by insiders, the only person not offering an answer to the question of a Biden candidacy is Joe Biden himself.

Because Biden lost his son Beau to brain cancer earlier this year, he was hesitant to put his family through the rigors of a presidential run this soon.

The latest report from those close to the family indicates that wife Jill Biden is completely in favor of her husband running for the presidency a third time.

Biden’s travels around country continue to include meetings with key Democrat donors and influencers in what looks a great deal like an effort to coordinate a campaign infrastructure.

With the first Democrat debate scheduled in three weeks for October 13 in Las Vegas, a Biden announcement could be coming very soon.
