It was previously indicated that he'd be inclined to run if Hillary's campaign looked to be in trouble.He has until October and Hillary's campaign is circling the bowl as I type this. That fact that he hasn't committed to running yet is just a financial thing. He's waiting for the dems to pony up the money.
It's one thing to give Biden a pre-primary endorsement of sorts once he throws his hat into the ring.
But, for President Obama to do so now comes across, to me, as Obama doubting Hillary's campaign longevity and encouraging Biden to run for the sake of the Democratic Party. That's a hit to Hillary and the last thing she needs right now. That's just my opinion though.
