President Joe Biden has announced that he will not seek re-election in 2024, stating that it is in the best interest of his party and the country for him to stand down and focus solely on fulfilling his duties as President for the remainder of his term.
In a letter released on Sunday, July 21, 2024, Biden expressed his gratitude to the American people for their faith and trust in him and acknowledged the progress made during his presidency. He highlighted the strong economy, historic investments in rebuilding the nation, lowering prescription drug costs, expanding affordable health care, and passing the first gun safety law in 30 years.
Biden also mentioned the appointment of the first African American woman to the Supreme Court and the passing of the most significant climate legislation in history. He expressed his belief that America is better positioned to lead than ever before.
However, despite these accomplishments, Biden's decision to step aside comes as polls show Democrats lagging behind Republicans in the 2024 race. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis, a Democrat and the newly elected chair of the National Governors Association, recently suggested that the Democratic Party needs to change course before the November election.
Polis acknowledged that Democrats are down in the polls and that they need to change something about their campaign strategy. He criticized Biden's performance, saying that there is a lot of skepticism about his ability to run a winning campaign. Polis also referred to former President Donald Trump as a "convicted felon" and criticized his economic policies.
Biden's decision to step aside raises questions about who will be the Democratic nominee in 2024. Some have suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris could be a potential candidate, while others have floated the idea of a more moderate Democrat running for the nomination.
Regardless of who the nominee is, it is clear that the Democratic Party will need to make significant changes to their campaign strategy if they hope to win the 2024 election. With Biden stepping aside, the focus will now shift to the potential candidates and their ability to unite the party and appeal to voters.
In his letter, Biden said that he will speak to the nation later this week in more detail about his decision. Until then, the political world will be watching closely to see who emerges as the frontrunner for the Democratic nomination.
