Draft Biden

This post is worth it just for the above picture. But anyway there is apparently a Draft Biden movement, I suppose apart from the Plan B movement waiting in the wings that the Vice President and Delaware Democrats already have fermenting just beneath the surface. Indeed, little birdies have told me that Delaware Democrats, whether they are official staff, in leadership positions or prominent rank-and-file have been told that when it comes to the Presidential race, they are not for Hillary, they are for Joe. At least that is what they are supposed to say publicly. But I digress.

Organizers behind the Draft Biden 2016 super-PAC have launched an online store around a “I’m ridin’ with Biden” logo depicting the vice president sporting aviator sunglasses while behind the wheel. […]

Draft Biden 2016’s online store, which launched Wednesday, sells bumper stickers and other items emblazoned with the Biden car logo, including T-shirts and hoodies for dogs and baby body suits and bibs. The Biden logo “taps into his friendliness, why the voters love him,” said William Pierce, organizing director of the group, which launched last month with “former staffers and campaign veterans.”

The group has 20,000 signatures toward their goal of 30,000 by the end of April for an online petition urging Biden to launch a 2016 White House bid, they said. They added that they plan to organize in early-voting Iowa, New Hampshire and South Carolina.

Biden has so far not signaled he will challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination in 2016, though he said earlier this year “there is a chance” he could run.

The online store and Draft Biden website is here. Here are some things you can purchase:

    Are you sure this isn’t a contrivance of The Onion? They LOVE Biden. I agree that Clinton could use a primary challenger as a foil, but I don’t think Biden is that person.

    I posted just before the news broke that Hillary is announcing her presidential run on Sunday. So now I suppose Biden will exist only as a Plan B should Hillary die or implode. Biden will not run against Hillary. Hillary’s foil will be Jim Webb and Lincoln Chafee (to make her appear more liberal) and Martin O’Malley (to make her appear more moderate).

    My response? Come on Elizabeth and Bernie! Drag Hill to the left and we’ll all benefit.

    why not Draft Biden as a senate challenge against Carper?

    O’Malley is already running to the left (mostly) and it is a shame more folks aren’t hearing him.

    Ladies, this is why you should not get in the car with strangers.
