US President Joe Biden has dropped yet another hint that he will seek re-election in 2024.
Biden says that he plans on running again but he is not prepared to announce it yet.
During one of his press conferences, the president spoke of his desire to seek another term but said he would discuss it with his family over the year-end holidays.
White House staff had suggested that an announcement could come as early as February but then pushed the possible date to April.
Biden’s advisers say he sees an advantage in drawing a contrast between his role governing the nation while his potential Republican opponents engage in partisan campaigning or - in Donald Trump's case - deal with the fallout from a criminal indictment.
Biden and his advisers are quietly assembling a campaign team and staffing the independent political action committee, Future Forward, that will provide financial support for the president's re-election effort.
At 80, Biden is already the oldest president in US history and if he wins re-election, he will be 86 at the end of his second term.
