to voice their anger at mccombs government with some demonstrations descending into violence. hope to show he understands their frustrations. former u.s. vice president joe biden has officially announced he run for the white house in two thousand and twenty and lots of speculation biden enters a large fund of democratic candidates of the nineteen other hopeless his candidacy has been welcomed by many but also sparked a debate about the direction of the modern day democratic. but the six time senator is trying for the u.s. presidency again you're picking up some pizza from a restaurant just hours after the news broke he was asked by reporters if he had a special message for the world. yes america's coming back like we used to be ethical great told the truth what were the words reported around was that all those
1:21 pm
good things that i got to find out if we have yeah you guys thank you biden made his announcement on twitter saying the soul of the nation was at stake taking direct aim at donald trump's bid for reelection. biden joins an already crowded field of nineteen of the democratic hopefuls competing for their party's nomination . but there's a lot that could work in his favor biden has legislative and international experience that is unmatched by his rivals. he served as president obama's vice president for eight years and as a senator since the nine hundred seventy s. . but biden is already twice run for president unsuccessfully in nine hundred eighty eight and two thousand and eight. and his age is a worry to some and seventy six he would be the oldest person to ever take office if elected so does his third run for the white house common little too late.
1:22 pm

1:23 pm
a record number of candidates running minorities are represented women young candidates what joe biden is not of that he's seventy six years old he's considered an old white man if you will but yet she is the most popular of all candidates and he has credibility among blue collar voters and that can be crucial this time around in two thousand and sixteen most of the swing states went to donald trump and joe biden wants to make the case that he can be the one to win these states back in defeat donald trump in two thousand and twenty but first of all he has to win the primary elections and become the official candidate of the democratic party . that says you have the scars on all of us on us in a washington returning now to one of our top stories at this fall when see you see like us president said the suspected leader of the. the hotel bombings addressing journalists in colombo. also a peaceful calm and warned against a backlash against the muslim community many muslims have their homes fearing
