Great News for the Biden Campaign

New polling shows President Obama is at 51 percent, lets now consider Ronald Reagan’s job approval average at 53 percent. Note: Not looking at President Obama’s job approval average. President H.W. Bushs’ job approval average was 61 percent, according to Gallup. Real Clear Politics gives the President an average of 45.3 percent for an approval rating.

Knowing President H.W. Bush ran off the legacy of President Reagan, Vice President Joe Biden could argue that if the Democrats choose him as their nominee he will continue on the legacy of President Obama.

Looking at the poll numbers for President Obama, it is looking more and more likely that if Biden runs he can make the case he will sail into the White House. The Vice Presidents approval rating is 48.2 percent, according to RCP. The case could be made that Biden is the more favorable candidate for the Democratic Party to go into the general election strongly.

Biden could end up taking the nomination from Clinton. The Clinton’s largely have looked at Biden as being somewhat of a joke. In 2008 Clinton did not think Senator Obama could beat her, and he went on to win the presidency.
