1:00Now PlayingPresident Joe Biden formally announced that he would seek reelection in 2024, readying a historic campaign against a Republican field dominated by his predecessor while economic uncertainty clouds his case for a second term.
Biden, 80, implored voters to let him “finish this job” he began when he took office and put aside any worries about his age. The president is on track to easily be renominated, but faces a tough general-election battle to remain in the White House with the nation as divided as ever.
Biden made his decision official with a three-minute video released Tuesday, in which he said his promise to heal the “soul of America” following Donald Trump’s presidency is not yet fulfilled and that the nation still faces threats from “extremists” in the Republican Party. The announcement came on the fourth anniversary of when he launched his presidential campaign in 2019.
“The question we are facing is whether in the years ahead we have more freedom or less freedom,” Biden said. “This is not a time to be complacent. That’s why I’m running for reelection.”
