Is Joe Biden running in 2020 for President?

When both candidates are from the bottom of the barrel, winning is not a ringing endorsement.

Electoral college baby! You know, just in case the people don't vote the right way.

I think you mean "Electoral College baby!. You know, the method provided in the US Constitution for choosing a president." And yes, I know that whenever one side loses, it wants a different system--retroactively

It is amazing how someone so unpopular can get himself elected.

I’m in marketing. It’s not amazing at all...

Unless we're talking fantasy wishlists, I don't think anyone actually wants to remove the electoral college retroactively.

And I don't think it's a stretch to want to remove or modify a system when it literally does one of the things that it was intended to prevent.

Ignoring the eye-bleeding thing (not familiar with that particular far-right meme) I have to think that if none of these things kept Donald out of the White House they wouldn't be an issue for Biden. Unless there's an implicit admission that non-right-wing voters have higher standards for a leader or something.

You know, that is typical of what the polls show when an incumbent President is being challenged during the primaries season by someone from the other party.

This doesn't seem like an accurate reflection of reality , e.g. Campaign 2012: Obama vs. Generic GOP

He's not a nice guy. He makes racist comments, uses profanity, and believes in violence.

Biden would be a puppet, a figurehead, swayed to the views of whoever is actually running things, which is the swamp in DC politics.

Does anyone anywhere think that Biden would stand a chance against Trump, other then just wishful thinking.

Obviously Trump is scared else he would not be begging foreign countries for dirt on Joe.

You think the Electoral College does one of the things that it was intended to prevent? How so?

I am sure the liberal causes are taking a big hit, so I can understand why people are concerned.

But more people are concerned with food and shelter and they are not so concerned about the liberal agenda.

Could be. It seems like the crowds that show up at Biden or Warren rallies (for example) are political aficionados seeking mainly to decide which candidate among the many Democrats is the purest liberal or best campaigner . The tens of thousands who show up at Trump rallies seem more like ordinary, everyday people who just are glad for the success of his policies and want them continued.

Trump is not scared at all. This election is already a done deal for him.

...then why is turning to a foreign country for dirt on one of his potential opponents?

The little I gleaned, was Biden's son was getting paid $85000 per year by Ukranian interested parties with no official job, and Biden's son was telling them he controlled a billion dollars in aid that he could get into the Ukraine from the US, if they did certain things. Don't know if this is true, or if Biden's son was a fraud, seems Trump was telling the Ukrainians to investigate that.

There are quite a few situations so which one?

Well, here's the overall situation. The world is marching lock step towards the antichrist. It is extremely naive of us to think it will get there being led by righteous people. Trump, Obama, Bushes, Clintons, left right they are but 2 roads that reach the same destination. So instead of spending our time arguing over the lesser evil, we ought to be preparing for the destination these leaders are all taking us to.

That's the situation.

No, if that's the way the law reads then that is the system we have to live with or change.

But don't lie to me about one person one vote. These systems were put in place just to over rule that. To make sure we CAN'T get off the path to tribulation.

Not to mention his creepy fondling habit. No, he stands no chance. The DNC is completely corrupt and brainless. They purposefully exclude those that actually have a chance of standing up to Trump, and stack the deck to put through the candidates they want. The democrats are anti-democratic, but worse than that, they have no platform, no morals, and no clue. They keep making the same mistakes and refusing to learn from them. Unless there is serious reform within the DNC, they will never elect another sitting president ever again. imho

On the other hand, compared to the president, he seems absolutely Einstein like. What's more, the president has told 12,000 lies in less than three years, and Biden has only been found to have connected a few similar stories into a compelling docudrama...

While the Democratic Party has not made its official 2020 platform yet, if you had listened to the debates you would have learned that each of the ten candidates had much more coherent policies than our current president. And what's more, all seem able to maintain their staff.

At the moment, we have an impulsive president contemplating war with NO national security advisor, many "acting" cabinet and intelligence chairs, and many countries without ambassadors. Trump has learned quickly that if he doesn't have staff he can do what he wants, without even having to listen to boring briefs or read boring one page reports.

It seems as if your "research" skills are similar to Trump's--assertions without evidence.
