Biden should say he is in to restore USA standing in the world.

He has lots in the past that he will need to address.

Just say "biggest mistake of my political career, was not believeing Anita Hill. Aologize and move on.
He could promise he's in for one term and therefore will not be making decision based on best political opportunities but all his dedicions will be made for the best outcomes for the people...ALL the people.

Talk about how much he has learned from Jill about what women go through and what they have to face.

Talk about learning a lot from Obama on how to keep his cool and focus on the long-game.

Talk about appealing to our better selves.

Talk about a new rainbow coalition for the pot of gold at the end.

Talk about wanting to hand over to the next generation an America of high ideals and bold, but practical and doable, ideas.

Ask for ideas and help from the newbies in Congress to shap an agenda for the future. He can feat Trump simply by ignoring him most time accept when tall us lies.

I guess he can’t help the media speculation all the time.

It's a very long cycle, and the first primary is almost a year away. He doesn't have to worry about name recognition and fund-raising likely won't be an issue, the media reports to the contrary notwithstanding.

Instead of running for President.

"Talk about wanting to hand over to the next generation an America of high ideals and bold, but practical and doable, ideas."

The next generation is ready. Even if they have to take it.

don't think that the majority of voters care much. It would be on a long list but not the short list, imho.

That makes it a lame duck Presidency. He could just say that he will make that decision when the time comes.
