Joseph Biden giving a serious, and captivating speech to those who support him.

Joe Biden, though one of the last to declare, has been projected for a nearly 30-point advantage in some national polls. He is a former vice president, and a former senator from Delaware. He has run for president twice before and believes 2020 is his last chance to run for president.

His national polling average is 26%, and his news coverage ranking is #1.

Major Policy Points:

Restoring America’s standing on the global stage
Strengthening economic protections for low-income workers in industries like manufacturing and fast food
Firmly believes in the value of bipartisanship
Insists on extending overtures to Republicans even in a moment when many in his own party don’t see negotiating partners on the other side

While Biden’s past in the legislature has weighed him down with some crowds, Biden is winning well amongst older Democrats.

“

If we give Donald Trump eight years in the White House, he will forever and fundamentally alter the character of this nation, who we are, and I cannot stand by and watch that happen.

— Joe Biden
