@SSNBubblehead: All he has to do is run on the ticket as VP, and then the elected POTUS can resign immediately. Voila. Not illegal.
@thedisasterautist @SSNBubblehead Hmm... I feel like if Biden had Obama as his running mate, his chances of winning would probably go up dramatically.
I suppose the primary reason that *hasn't* happened is probably because of the small constitutional ambiguity with regards to the 12th Amendment, combined with the fact that the Supreme Court has been stacked with a bunch of idiotic, unqualified far-right sycophants.
