Vice President Joe Biden is headling to New Hampshire next week. Wednesday he was in South Carolina and last week, it was Iowa.
Seems like an itinerary for a presidential candidate.
Biden has said he’ll decide later this year whether he’ll seek to succeed President Barack Obama, and he continues to run a distant second to former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in most Democratic preference polls.
But Clinton hasn’t officially announced she’s running, and Biden has tried twice before to win the White House.
He plans to visit New Hampshire, traditionally the nation’s first primary state, on Wednesday. He’s expected to give an economic policy address in Concord and then visit Manchester Community College for a discussion about higher education.
Wednesday, he was in South Carolina, usually the first Southern primary, promoting Obama’s infrastructure spending plan, and last week visited Des Moines. Iowa hosts the nation’s first caucus.
He wouldn’t say much about his 2016 plans. “Some say sticking with current policies amounts to giving the president a third term. I say that it is sticking with what works,” Biden said at Drake University.
