Vice President Joe Biden "faces a situation unique in the annals of modern American politics," the New York Times reports.

"He is the vice president, the highest-ranking member of his party interested in running for president, yet he is not the heir apparent. While every sitting vice president who sought it in the last half-century captured his party's nomination, Mr. Biden would start as the underdog if he ran against Mrs. Clinton, the former secretary of state."

Which is why he won't run if she does. Hillary and Joe are also good friends, which I think makes the decision not to run easier, not harder.
