Joe Biden Declines Running For President In 2016 Election

Drudge Report proclaims Biden was scared off by the witch (LOL)

U.S. vice president Joe Biden has announced he will not become a candidate in the 2016 presidential election. Biden declined to run as he is still grieving the death of his son, Beau Biden, who passed away from brain cancer at age 46. Biden stated, "As my family and I have worked through the grieving process, I've said all along that it may very well be that process, by the time we get through it, closes the window on mounting a realistic campaign for president. I've concluded it has closed."

The likable Democrat is a better choice than the current frontrunner from his party, Hillary Clinton. Biden is more experienced and is congenial, amiable and straightforward. People like being around him. However, no one can fault Biden for his reasons in not running. I've seen people go through the loss of a child and it is a very painful and soul shaking thing for them.
