• Oh definitely, of all people I think I understand why Biden does it the most. I think you’re pretty spot on, with Biden if not saying this outright himself has definitely alluded to it in some of his comments.

    Even if I don’t agree with it, I can understand it. I just sort of wish he wasn’t being so stubborn about it.

    To another end, I feel like Biden is of the era where he is used to the incumbent President running again. That’s just what we do. Obama did it. Bush Did it. Clinton did it. Reagan did it. Nixon did it. Johnson did it. Eisenhower did it. Truman did it. Roosevelt did it. That is almost every single President from Biden’s lifetime. If I’m not mistaken, there would be 4 Presidents who did not go for/win their second term from 1941 through 2017? Kennedy, Ford, Carter, and H.W. Bush. Kennedy almost certainly would have, unless some of his shenanigans were to come out (seems doubtful).

    I wouldn’t be entirely surprised if part of his whole reasoning was in part also due to it just being what you do as a President. You run again, it’s just what you do?
