BIDEN SAYS HE’LL DECIDE ON 2020 RUN BY YEAR’S END

WASHINGTON Former U.S. vice-president Joe Biden said in an interview broadcast Sunday that he has not ruled out a presidential run in 2020 and that he expects to make a decision by the end of the year.

Biden gave an account of his thinking to the Rev. Al Sharpton on MSNBC’s PoliticsNation.

“I’m really hoping that some other folks step up,” Biden said. “I think we have some really good people. … I got to walk away knowing that it is — there’s somebody who can do it and can win because we’ve got to win. We’ve got to win in 2020.”

Biden said he is still struggling to recover from the 2015 death of his son Beau at 46 from brain cancer.
