After weeks and months of anticipation, Joe Biden has finally decided that he will not make a run for the White House. “Unfortunately, I believe we’re out of time, the time necessary to mount a winning campaign for the nomination.” It’s interesting that 13 months is too little time. That’s why elections drive you crazy. How can more than a year not be enough time to run for office when you’re already the Vice President (which means you have name recognition with at least half of all Americans)?
