    No thank you, Biden. We need fresh meat.

    • Megan says:

      We desperately need fresh meat. The Dems better start building the bench now.

      • jerkface says:

        You’re right. And they better not show up with Arby’s saying “We Got The Meats!” either. Actually that goes for all parties. I want to see everyones A game. No more bad theater lol

      • Tiffany :) says:

        I have several friends all across the country that are getting involved in local politics.

        Ladies, I have seen a group in Chicago that will support female candidates for office (mentoring, financially, etc.) It looks very interesting!

    • JudyK says:

      I agree. He should’ve run this time, and, if he had, we would not be faced with Trump as President elect; there would have been NO CONTEST.

      And, P.S.–I LOVE Joe so much.

      • Rapunzel says:

        JudyK- you think Biden could’ve beat Trump? Cause I don’t think so.

      • Maisie says:

        Yes. I understand completely that he was too devastated by the death of his son to put on a full campaign, but part of me also thinks he let us down. If he had run we wouldn’t be saddled with a thin-skinned petulant narcissistic orange clown who’s going to blow us all to smithereens.

        I still love and sympathise with Biden, but 2020 will be too late, dude.

    • Pam_L says:

      You have fresh meat now. How does that make you feel?

      • jerkface says:

        I don’t think the meat is fresh any longer once it turns that color but thank you for asking how I feel 🙂

    • HoustonGrl says:

      This!! Fresh blood please, these establishment democrats need to realize they are hurting the party.

  2. Esmom says:

    I love Joe, too, although I’m not sure he’s the right candidate for 2020. But if he’s serious he and TBTB need to be ready for whatever the right wing spin machine decides to fabricate. And get ahead of it. Although in this post-truth world who knows if that’s even possible. Sigh.

    • Who ARE these people? says:

      He will be 78 then so just the truth will be sufficient. Not being ageist…just not seeing it.

  3. Kasia says:

    Love him but he’s too old for this. Plus, why worry about 2020 when we probably won’t make it there anyway without getting blown up or something thanks to President Pence and that bloated talking orange figurehead thing running it’s mouth?

    • NastyWoman` says:

      If things weren’t so dire, this comment would be hilarious.

      Too little, too late, Joe. You should’ve run this year and prevented the Orangepocalypse.

      • milla says:

        i have a serious question. why is the orange guy orange?
        is that bad self-tanning lotion? how can someone be so pale and turn into that shade of orange?

      • LoveIsBlynd says:

        @milla- the Orangepocalype is the name of his skin care.- made by his wife Melanomaia.

  4. Rhiley says:

    He should I have run this year. It was a terrible mistake on the part of everyone involved with democratic politics. I think he certainly would have won, but there is no way he will win in 2020.

    • Lalu says:

      Was there a reason that he didn’t run in this last election? I don’t understand why he would wait and run 4 years from now.

      • Rhiley says:

        I think the reason he didn’t run this year was Hillary. He said he would step aside if she ran and for whatever reason, the DNC pushed that it was Hillary’s turn to be the Democratic nominee and gamed it so she would be. *note I did not write “rigged”*

      • GingerCrunch says:

        I was hoping when Hillary fainted that Joe coulda stepped in to save the whole thing….now we just need a huge reset.

      • Lightpurple says:

        Way too soon after the death of his son.

      • lucy2 says:

        He said it was too soon after his son died, and that to do it, he had to give 100% and he just didn’t have it then.

        I think he’s a good guy, but by then his age will be a real concern. Unless he wants to name Obama his VP, so we can get some more Obama/Biden BFF memes…

    • Lalu says:

      Okay… I get the idea that a lot of people felt like it was Hillary’s turn. I know that I thought she would get the nom back when Obama got it.
      I wonder if Biden could have won… Just based on the good will that a lot of people feel toward Obama and being so closely associated with him.
      Now I see the comment where he lost his son. I can see that taking precedence.

      • Rhiley says:

        I think he would have won Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Michigan- not so sure about Florida and North Carolina and Nevada. But I think pundits feel that he would have done a better job than Hillary with the working class. People love when he talks about Scranton, and he really does have a natural way of connecting with people.

    • LoveIsBlynd says:

      Hilllary would have won hands down. No one expected trump to hire steve brannon from brightFart to teach the Orange Thing the seductive language of bigotry that woke up the sleeping debased. Most of us thought the soda drinkers would never get out of their butt craters (couches) and get out to vote. Butt they did and here we are- nothing to do with Biden.

    • Bonbon says:

      I agree. I was hoping he would run and was disappointed that he didn’t, He would have won and yes — I would have voted for Biden instead of Johnson.

  5. Veronica says:

    I guess now that Biden is running for 2020, we can all pat ourselves on the back and say to ourselves that it’ll be okay since a white man is running.

    • Who ARE these people? says:

      More concerned that voters will relax their guard thinking that in 4 yrs there will be a savior.

    • NastyWoman` says:

      Yes, this “reality” annoys me to no end. Not saying that Hillary was a perfect candidate, she wasn’t. But at least she was a “candidate.” She had experience. she was articulate. And she didn’t offend every segment of the population. I am stuck at SMH. I really am.

    • Ash says:

      @Veronica: Hahaha. Exactly.

    • LoveIsBlynd says:

      It’s going to be the Rock.The Rock will rock the vote in 2020 except he’ll say stupid things that will piss me off…still I’ll take anything to stop the orangepocolypse.

  6. Lightpurple says:

    I don’t think Biden will actually run in 2020 BUT previous administrations are supposed to retire gracefully and keep their criticism to a minimum UNLESS they set themselves up as an opponent for the next go-round, which is what Biden just did. He just gave himself, and us, a voice. Now, he’ll be free to criticize and point out alternatives for the next four years. Bravo, Joe!

    • Who ARE these people? says:

      If this is the tactic,fine by me.

    • lucy2 says:

      Excellent point. He’s been highly critical of Trump, so I’m on board with that continuing.

    • Carrie says:

      That’s a really interesting perspective! Let’s hope that Biden remains an outspoken critic of the next administration (can’t say the future President’s name, just can’t…)

  7. minx says:

    I just thought he was being Joe, joking. I can’t see him actually doing it.

  8. Shambles says:

    Nah. I love JoeJoe and his aviator sunglasses and his Memes, but I want to see a woman in the White House. I’m not saying that if there is a qualified man who I agree with policy-wise I wouldn’t consider him, but I want my female president. We need to start now in pouring resources into a female candidate that everyone can get behind, who also isn’t as unfortunately marred with a 30 year smear campaign as the Hillz.

    • Who ARE these people? says:

      We need to start educating ourselves about the range of smart, outspoken young Dems and urge the baked-in-place leadership to get out of their way.

  9. Nancy says:

    A lot of people are saying he should have run this year, but it wouldn’t have made a difference. He is a good man who has a lot of respect for woman unlike the alien that won the election. Still hard to type those words, he won. Biden was a good VP and has suffered so many hardships in his life and never became bitter. I wish nothing but the best for him, but he will never be Prez.

  10. detritus says:

    New model looks like a child with nice lips.
    I cannot appropriately objectify him.
    Also, he gay yeah? That makes it harder for me too.

    Chemsworth has totally grown on me.

  11. Say What says:

    I think this can be included in the book of Bidenisms. Here are a few others.

    “Folks, I can tell you I’ve known eight presidents, three of them intimately.” –Joe Biden, Aug. 22, 2012

    “Look at what they [Republicans] value, and look at their budget. And look what they’re proposing. [Romney] said in the first 100 days, he’s going to let the big banks write their own rules — unchain Wall Street. They’re going to put y’all back in chains.” –Joe Biden, speaking to a largely African-American audience in Danville, Va., Aug. 14, 2012

    “My mother believed and my father believed that if I wanted to be president of the United States, I could be, I could be Vice President!” –Joe Biden, campaigning in Youngstown, Ohio, May 16, 2012

    “I guess what I’m trying to say without boring you too long at breakfast—and you all look dull as hell, I might add. The dullest audience I have ever spoken to. Just sitting there, staring at me. Pretend you like me!” –Joe Biden, teasing a crowd of Turkish-American and Azerbaijani-American Obama donors, April 27, 2012

    “I promise you, the president has a big stick. I promise you.” –Joe Biden, citing Theodore Roosevelt’s famous quote, “Speak softly and carry a big stick; you will go far.” (April 26, 2012)

    “This is a big f**king deal!” –Joe Biden, caught on an open mic congratulating President Barack Obama during the health care signing ceremony, Washington, D.C., March 23, 2010

    • Guesto says:

      Thanks for that, Say What,

      There’s something really grim about the fact that Biden is still being seen as potential presidential material. Hopefully, come 2020 (but ideally way sooner, like Jan 2017), America, for its own sake, will actually have candidates worthy of presidential consideration.

  12. Eric says:

    I’m not so worried about a gem from the democrats for 2020. When Clockjerk Orange implodes the GOP will be set back a decade for believing this clown. The whole family–such hubris!

  13. Lex says:

    Yikes… Ashton and Mila – why’d you name your son after Ashton’s ex-wife?
