Poll: Would you like to see Joe Biden serve another term as US President?

Biden said in an interview that it ‘remains to be seen’ if he will seek another term.

US PRESIDENT JOE Biden gave a rare TV interview yesterday in which he surprised many by hedging on whether he’ll seek re-election in 2024.

Biden, who turns 80 in November, went back on repeated assertions by the White House that he is sure to run, telling interviewer Scott Pelley that re-election is his “intention.”

“But is it a firm decision that I run again? That remains to be seen,” he said.

He is currently the oldest US President by age at inauguration and would be 86 by the end of his second term if re-elected.

So, today we’re asking: Would you like to see Biden re-elected?

    Q: Blue or Oasis?
    A: Huh? I’m not to au fait with modern day pop music.

    (My response was “Neither am I. Both bands were around 20 years ago)

    Q: Who do you represent?
    A: FG

    (My response was “you would probably be better off representing the people who elect you”)

    Q: What is the true unemployment rate when JobBridge and CE figures are removed
    A: I’m not sure but I can categorically assure you that people who take up these courses are getting full time jobs

    (My response was “Do you think it’s right that our local Super Valu are offering a JobBridge in shelf packing?” To which he replied “Your not going to vote for me are you?”
    To which I replied “that’s the only one you got right, Goodbye”

    You should name him – people need to know what kind of people are knocking on their doors asking for their votes. The fact he assumed your questions were an indication that you wouldn’t be voting for him is very indicative of these politicians’ natures. He literally ran away from an enquiring constituent. No interest or reaction other than whether or not he’d get your vote. If that’s they’re attitude on the doorstep you can be sure it’ll be worse when they’ve their arse parked in Leinster house.

    I notice that you are guessing that the CSO figure published on crime rates are inaccurate. Is that viewpoint based on a wish that they were higher or just an over fertile imagination? Or perhaps you would prefer them to be higher to suit your political bias.
    Chris…….the crime rates are lower because the Gardai are working smarter and more effectively. This has little to do with the Minister other than his streamlining the Force to ensure that more Gardai are away from their desks and actively engaged in the war on crime.

    Of all the comments I have read on this site, and I mean a lot over time, some of the utter tripe that Rogers has posted is truly unbelievable. At this stage when I see your name I just skim over the thread, and that’s a pity. I’m sure there will be some insane reply from him but I won’t be retorting, it would only take away from intellectual debate, which I’ve noticed is his (if it even is male) strategy.

    Hi Cowenwatch,

    As far as I’m aware the comment sections of any stories relating to Alan Shatter have not been closed. It’s rare for us to close comments completely on any article. However we do remove comments that break the comments policy, which you can see here: http://www.thejournal.ie/comments-policy/.

    We ask commenters to keep an eye out for any comments that may break the policy and to report them. It’s the fastest way to get the attention of a staff member who can take action, if necessary.

    Anyway, that’s not Shatter. It’s a conceptual piece. How Neil Diamond’s guitar looks, from the inside.

    “He blames many things on previous FF governments”.

    That’s because many things are the fault of previous FF governments.

    James Reilly: Crime is down 16%, including homocide (murder) down 10%

    Is it just me or does it seems there’s more serious attacks/stabbings/shootings on a daily basis? Especially over the last few years.

    When the urgency arise’s……’letters’ & packages will be opened ‘on time’. Maybe the perpetrator, thought he had 15 days head start, to get away! They could have just sent an Easter Egg…….Alan’ wouldn’t have opened it until around Good Friday – instead of lowering themselves to racial insults.

    Is there any truth that the HSE is currently paying Alan Shatter’s legal firm €500,000 PA in legal. Fees?

    The full truth needs to be disclosed.

    Alan shatter is the best justice minister the Republic of Ireland has ever had since I came to this country more than a decade ago. Why would anyone want to get rid of him? Allan shatter is man of the people and the right man for the job. Any attempt to remove him will undoubtedly meet stiff resistance from the immigrant and well meaning Irish community. Long live Allan Shatter.

    Mr.T
