Former Vice President Joe Biden enters the race—his third try—for the Democratic Party's nomination for president.
Former Vice President Joe Biden formally announced his candidacy for the Democratic Party’s 2020 nomination on Thursday morning with a video that focused on President Donald Trump’s reaction to the infamous rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, in 2017.
“Their crazed faces, illuminated by torches, veins bulging and bearing the fangs of racism. Chanting the same anti-Semitic bile heard across Europe in the thirties. They were met by a courageous group of Americans and a violent clash ensued. A brave young woman lost her life,” Biden says. “And in that moment I knew the threat to this nation was unlike any I had ever seen in my lifetime. I wrote at the time they were in the battle for the soul of this nation. Well that's even more true today.”
The president sought to draw a distinction between the far-right groups and other people at a demonstration in Charlottesville who were protesting the removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee from a park that bears his name. The president continued: “You're changing history, you're changing culture, and you had people—I'm not talking about the neo-Nazis and the white nationalists because they should be condemned totally—but you had many people in that group other than neo-nazis and white nationalists, OK, and the press has treated them absolutely unfairly.”
