“I think you can direct those questions to my very able vice president”, Obama said at a White House press conference.

Biden’s will-he-or-won’t-he waiting game has lasted too long. Even Clinton’s campaign chairman, John Podesta, told reporters this week that it was time Biden make a decision.
Should he run, Biden “has to establish his own identity”, but to do so he would have to highlight times when he privately disagreed with Obama, said Anthony Cordesman, an expert on US security policy at the Center for Strategic and worldwide Studies.
Hitting the nail on the satirical head, Trevor Noah compared the upcoming Democratic Presidential candidate debate to a reality show on Monday. “I think Joe will go down as one of the finest vice presidents in history and one of the more consequential”, Obama said.
Political pundits and analysts were questioning if a Biden run was necessary after Democratic frontrunner Hillary Clinton’s strong and victorious performance at the first Democratic primary debate hosted by CNN on Tuesday, October 13. But when placed up against Republican front-runners and asked who they would vote for in a presidential election, respondents favored Biden more than Clinton.
One of Vice President Joe Biden’s top political advisers says he’ll make a decision soon about whether to run for president.

“If you take a look at the Republican side, a few say it’s the most diverse in history”, Costello said.
(NBC) Vice President Joe Biden is reportedly close to a decision on a presidential run. On the same day, Politico ran a story that New York Senator Kirsten Gillibrand is willing to bet that Biden will run. But as the clock ticks, the challenges only increase for a national campaign. “I’d be lying if I said that I knew I was there”.
The decision mostly had to do with Biden considering his family and their support after the death of his son Beau and if there would be ready for another campaign.
Despite the presidential campaign going on for months now, Biden still has advantages in the race.
And she responded brilliantly, seizing the stage with all the right answers, no stumbles and looking and acting very presidential.
Yet a Biden candidacy is also challenging.

Dante Scala, an associate professor of political science at the University of New Hampshire, noted gun control can be used by Clinton to capture Democrats who might otherwise support Sanders.
