Yes, please let it be true
A link to the Washington Post sent to us by Chief Tango speculates about whether or not Joe Biden will be the 2016 candidate for President for the Democrats.
People close to Biden laid out several considerations on his mind, starting with fundamental political concerns: Would the country effectively turn backward by picking a baby-boomer white man to succeed a youthful black president? Will the Obama administration three years from now be considered a success, particularly on the economy?
First of all, Biden isn’t a “baby boomer” – he’s four years too old to fit the post-WWII chronological profile. Secondly – YES! I’m here to tell you that I will vote for Biden as many times as they need me to vote for him. He’ll be the first Democrat I’ve voted for President since Jimmy Carter. I’ll leap across the aisle to vote for Joe Bite Me…er…Biden.
Biden clearly has the experience and gravitas to ascend to the presidency, but many Democrats say he may have been in Washington too long (since 1973) to win an election. He is President Obama’s governing partner yet is rarely seen as Obama’s heir apparent.
Not true! Joe is the only one who can attract Republicans to the Democrat Party at this juncture. He’d be the most experienced candidate in the race…if you don’t believe me, just ask him. Just because he’s been wrong on every single policy issue since he went to Congress shouldn’t count against him, it certainly won’t keep me from pulling the lever for the smartest man in America.
Biden, a spry 70, keeps a travel schedule that would exhaust most men half his age. But he will be 73 when the next election rolls around, and those close to him said he knows his age would be an issue.
Not at all. So what if he’ll be ten years older than Dick Cheney was when the media told us that Cheney was too old to be Vice-President. Joe can handle it.
In fact, if Biden doesn’t run in the next presidential election, I’ll stay away from the polls altogether. Clearly this is a hit-piece on the part of the Post and they’re scared that Biden will be the best President ever and overshadow Obama and Bill Clinton in the history books – I say Run, Joe, Run!!!

Wait a minute! He’ll be competing against Hilary. How can he possibly expect to win?
Oh, wait – I know: she gets the nomination for veep, he gets the nod for daprez, he gets elected and drops dead of myocardial infarction five minutes after he takes the oath of office.
PLEASE!! Let Joe be the nominee. I’ll pull a Chicago and vote for him multiple times(in the primaries) if it’ll get him nominated.
Stopped reading after “I’ll leap across the aisle”…
Technically, Obama is a Boomer. Boomer goes up to 1964 or 5.
And no, Biden will be given another post where he can serve as a distraction from the national stage. Under Hillary, he may even be the next Secretary of State.
If Uncle Joe runs, it’ll probably be unopposed. Everyone else would be too scared to put their name on the ballot because of the trouncing they’d get.
Gravitas
Is that a “dogwhistle” word for dumber than a bag of fucking hammers?
El wrongo. Of course Bite Me is an idiot with no redeeming qualities and experience. Same same as Obumba except that Dear Leader is half black. HE won twice. Libs will vote for idiots. They proved this with Gore and Kerry.
@6. No, it’s the D.C. pronunciation of gravy and taters.
As for the smartest, most truthful man in the USA, Joe would get my vote too. I am hereby committing my vote to him under the theory that if the country is going to go down the sewer, we may as well laugh all the way down the tube.
I will put my name on a write-in vote. I will campaign by using Facebook, Myspace, LivingSocial, blogging, and not accepting campaign contributions from scumbag billionaires who want to buy my favors.
ME TOO, Biden is one of my favorite proglodytes!!
“….white man to succeed a youthful black president…
What youthful black president? America has NOT had a black president, and no matter how badly the left want him to be black, he is NOT! He is no more black than he is white. He is respectfully defined as a Mulatto. He is not “Black”, “Colored”, “Negro” nor anything else of that description. “They” wanted a black president, and like so much else that they wanted, they got screwed out of the full value. Nappy hair and caramel complexion do not a Black man make.
Just one more instance of their deceit.
Proglodytes: progressive troglodytes, preserved via plastic surgery and/or hairplugs versus traditional sedimentary fossilization.
@11
I don’t know what you’re talking about. I distinctiy recall Bill Clinton being named the First Black President.
I’d vote for Joe if’n he promises me one of them double barreled 12 bore scatter guns he’s always talking about.
Roger–screw that. I got one shotgun already, and that’s enough. I want more of those scary black bangsticks he’s shitting himself blind over when talking about them.
HAHAHAHAHAHAHA
This has GOT to be the best snarc and sarcasm EVAH!!
Thank you Jonn, thank you for a delightfully humerous and laughter filled evening.
And yes, you’re right. I’d go Demonrat during the primaries just to put Bite-Me in the running.
Pull up the chairs, beer, and popcorn. A fun time will be had by all.
Before last year, I would totally have voted democratic in the primaries just to put Ole Joe as their candidate.
But after the rampant stupidity exhibited last November, with my luck, he’d win.

It’s great to be a DINO here in the People’s Republic of Maryland!
Id call Joe Biden a village idiot, but it would be a libel to village idiots. Then too if the ‘rat nominated the Delaware Idiot, all the ‘pubs oppostion researchers would be out of a job.
Then Biden might help in Kentucky. He the only person who could make Ashley Judd appear smart.
In this country with the mindless and dedicated voter block the socialist democrats have created, Biden stands a very good chance of getting elected. It matters not a whit that he is senile or at least suffers from dementia, he is a socialist democrat, and will garner the automatic support of most hispanics, almost all blacks, and all the usual self absorbed freeloaders that are totally dependent on federal largesse to stay alive.
