Vice President Joe Biden said he “would have been the best president” if he had run for office.
Biden sat down with “Good Morning America” on May 11 and revealed that not running for president was the right decision for his family.
He said he had planned to run but decided not to after his son, Beau, died of brain cancer in May 2015 at the age of 46. The vice president announced in October that he and his family were still going through the pain of Beau’s death and said he would not campaign for president.
