On April 25, U.S. President Joe Biden officially announced that he will seek re-election in 2024. He urged voters to disregard their reservations about extending the tenure of America's oldest President for an additional four years and to give him more time to "finish this job" that he started when he was sworn into office.
Mr. Biden, who would be 86 at the end of a second term
Mr. Biden is hoping that his first-term legislative accomplishments and more than 50 years of experience in Washington, D.C., will outweigh worries about his advanced age. He would be 86 at the end of a second term. Due to the lack of significant Democratic opponents, he will have an easy time obtaining his party's nomination. He will nonetheless have a challenging fight to keep his position as president in a deeply divided country.
The statement, which is made in a three-minute video, comes four years after Mr Biden announced his candidature for president in 2019, vowing to restore the "soul of the nation" in the midst of Donald Trump's divisive administration. This ambition has proven to be elusive.
Battle for the soul of America, and we still are,” Mr. Biden said.

Who we are as Americans.
“Freedom. The American way of life is fundamentally based on individual liberty. Nothing is more critical. In the premiere video, Vice President Biden portrayed Republican extremists as attempting to restrict voting rights, slash Social Security, restrict access to abortion, and ban publications they disagree with. "MAGA extremists are lining up across the nation to take away those fundamental liberties,"
"This is not the time to be complacent," Mr. Biden continued. "For that reason, I'm seeking reelection."
On Tuesday, Mr. Biden named White House adviser Julie Chávez
As a contender, Mr. Biden is not anticipated to instantly drastically modify his routine because, in their opinion, his best political asset is demonstrating to the American people that he is in charge. He might not host any official campaign rallies until well into 2024 if he adopts Obama's strategy.

Tuesday, Mr Biden picked Quentin Fulks, who oversaw Sen.
Raphael Warnock's Georgia re-election campaign last year, to serve as primary deputy campaign manager and
White House aide Julie Chávez Rodrguez to serve as campaign manager. Rep. Lisa Blunt-Rochester, Sens. Chris Coons and Tammy Duckworth, businessman and Democratic megadonor Jeffrey Katzenberg, and Whitmer will serve as the campaign's co-chairs.
Tuesday's statement came shortly before Mr. Biden was scheduled to address union members and receive South Korean President Yoon Suk Yeol on a state visit at the White House. Later this week, he intends to meet with party supporters in Washington.
