Biden Will Enter Presidential Race Next Week

The Atlantic: “Joe Biden is running. The former vice president will make his candidacy official with a video announcement next Wednesday.”

“Seriously, he’s actually made a decision. It’s taken two years of back and forth, it’ll be his third (or depending on how you count, seventh) try for the White House, many people thought he wouldn’t actually do it, but the biggest factor reshaping the 2020 Democratic primary field is actually locking into place.”

First Read: “The Atlantic reports that the campaign is weighing a more lighthearted announcement on the Rocky steps in Philadelphia OR one in Charlottesville to take on Trump on race and division. Those are two radically different opening messages. One’s upbeat and hopeful, and one is solemn and weighty.”

“That sure seems like a huge decision to be indecisive about less than a week before go time.”
