On an ABC News programme that aired on Sunday, former First Lady Michelle Obama was asked if she hoped Biden would run again, and she said she would have to wait and see. Obama then said that part of her reluctance stems from her personal experience as first lady, as well as her understanding of how significant the decision to run for a second term is.
She stated that he and his family must make a personal decision. If she hadn't lived through it, she'd probably be more hesitant to offer her opinion, but she recognised it was a personal decision, and she didn't want to be one of the millions of people weighing in on what he and Jill should do.
With most midterm election battles called, Democrats are focused on Biden's political future. Already, the president's comments about whether he will run for president again in 2024 have raised worries about the campaign.
In September, Biden stated that it was far too early to decide whether he would run again, leaving the door open to not seeking another term. Last month, the president stated that he has not made a formal decision but that he intends to do so. Biden, according to the previous first lady, is trying his best.
