President Biden Stands Firm Against Calls to Exit 2024 Presidential Race

Letter to Congressional Democrats

July 21, 2024

In a letter to congressional Democrats, President Joe Biden has affirmed his determination to remain in the 2024 presidential race despite increasing pressure to withdraw.

The letter, which was obtained by The Associated Press, states that Biden intends to "continue to lead our nation forward and build on the progress we have made together." He acknowledges the challenges the country faces, but emphasizes his belief that he is the best candidate to address them.

"I know that many of you have expressed concerns about my age and my health," Biden writes. "I want to assure you that I am up to the task of serving as your president for the next four years. I have the experience, the energy, and the commitment to see our nation through these difficult times."

Biden's decision to stay in the race comes as some Democrats have raised concerns about his ability to serve a full term at 84 years old. However, Biden has repeatedly dismissed these concerns, saying that he is in good health and has the stamina to handle the job.

The letter is a clear signal that Biden is confident in his ability to win the 2024 election. It also serves as a reminder that he is a seasoned politician with a long history of overcoming challenges.
