During the 2016 election, he got tons of free publicity just by being outrageous and provocative. He's not a terribly smart man, but he is really good at getting media attention. He has many years of experience.

Biden is a known entity. Good natured, stable, thoughtful - a little bit ornery. There are no surprises with Biden. He stands for the same thing he always did.

We don't need another "look at me" President.
