Report: Joe Biden Will Enter Presidential Race
Vice President Joe Biden is expected to officially announce a bid for the White House, according to Ed Henry, chief White House correspondent for Fox News.
Henry tweeted on Monday that three sources close to Biden say that he has told a number of supporters that he plans to enter the race, but may not officially launch his campaign until this weekend. The announcement may come at the Jefferson Jackson dinner in Iowa, according to Henry.
If Biden does enter the race, he'll be in strong position alongside leading candidates Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
