I think America will be ready for a more left progressive by then. Maybe another
relative newcomer like Barack?

3. Women age out faster than men, as it turns out.
I was just thinking about this today - can we ever elect a woman if the minimum age for a president is 35? Our society is not very kind to women once they've passed a certain age.

6. Not going to happen
He may not even be on the ticket in 2012. Biden may be a good guy, but when all the crap hits the fan in the next few years President Obama will have to shore up the ticket.
