Three obvious reasons why Joe Biden shouldn’t run for president

Joe Biden has told CNN, “there may be reasons I don’t run, but there’s no obvious reason for me why I think I should not run.” Biden added:

It doesn’t mean I’m the only guy that can do it, but if no one I think can, and I think I can, then I’d run. If I don’t, I won’t.

Here are three obvious reasons why Biden shouldn’t run: (1) he’s not remotely competent to do the job, having been wrong, for example, about every major foreign policy and national security issue for as long as anyone can remember; (2) he can’t win the nomination if, as expected, Hillary Clinton runs; and (3) he’s incapable of coherent speech.

A Biden candidacy would be massively entertaining while it lasted, though.
