WASHINGTON — President Joe Biden has announced that he will be running for President again in 2024.

This decision follows months of speculation, with critics voicing concerns about his policies and age, among other topics.

In a video released Tuesday (April 25), Biden explained framed why he will seek re-election, alongside Kamala Harris as Vice President.

“When I ran for president four years ago, I said we are in a battle for the soul of America. And we still are,” he said in the video, which opened with images of the January 6, 2021, insurrection and abortion rights activists protesting at the US Supreme Court.

“The question we are facing is whether in the years ahead we have more freedom or less freedom. More rights or fewer,” Biden says in voiceover narration. “I know what I want the answer to be and I think you do too. This is not a time to be complacent. That’s why I’m running for reelection.”

Former President Donald Trump has said that he will also run in 2024, and many are expecting former Vice President and Indiana Governor Mike Pence to do the same.

Other 2024 Presidential candidates at this time are Steve Laffey (R), Nikki Haley (R), Vivek Ramaswamy (R), Perry Johnson (R), Asa Hutchinson (R), Larry Elder (R), Marianne Williamson (D), and Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. (D).  Learn more here.
