There's a lot going on right now but the idea we're going to be able to click a switch, bring down the cost of gasoline, is not likely in the near term. Nor is it with regard to food, we can't take immediate action that I'm aware of yet to figure out how we're bringing down the prices of gasoline back to $ 3 a gallon. And we can't do that immediately with regard to food prices either.

Joe Biden

I don't regret not running in the sense that it was the right decision for my boy, for me, for my family at the time, but do I regret not being president? Yes.

I didn't run because no man or woman should announce for President of the United States unless they can look the public in the eye and say, 'I promise you I'm giving 100% of my attention and dedication to this effort,' i knew I couldn't do that.

He’s trying to tell us he cares about the middle class. Give me a break. That’s a bunch of malarkey.

We are watching Iran like a hawk, if Iran violates the deal the U.S. will act. The U.S. will act. Our commitment is unambiguous.

There is no excuse for killing innocents or remaining silent in the face of terrorism.

We're committed to making sure that Israel can defend itself against all serious threats, maintain its qualitative edge with a quantity sufficient to maintain that.

Let's change the culture, we must, and we can. by Joe Biden

Let's change the culture, we must, and we can.

Everything I said was completely accurate, i just never until last Tuesday night told the whole story.

Barack Obama made that decision knowing if it was wrong, his career was over. I wanted the public to know this is a man with a backbone of steel, that's why I said it. And had I said, but, by the way, when I went up privately I told him to go, it would look like I was self-aggrandizing.

As we walked out of the room and walked upstairs, I said, I told him my opinion that I thought he should go but to follow his own instinct.

I hope I leave office ... as a respected figure who can convene people and bring people together. and I just think the president and I talked about what we do together. What we each want to do out of office.

I think we can make some real progress, particularly with Paul Ryan, who is a good guy, on working toward an accommodation on the budget and on keeping the government open.

I believe that President Obama has led this nation from crisis to recovery, and we're now on the cusp of resurgence, i'm proud to have played a part in that. This party, our nation, will be making a tragic mistake if we walk away or attempt to undo the Obama legacy.

I've concluded it has closed. by Joe Biden

I've concluded it has closed.

This party, our nation will be making a tragic mistake if we walk away or attempt to undo the Obama legacy, the American people have worked too hard and we've come too far for The American people. Democrats should not only defend this record and protect this record, The American people should run on the record.

The other team is not the enemy, if you treat it as the enemy, there is no way we can ever solve the problems we have to.

I believe that we have to end the divisive partisan politics that is ripping this country apart, and I think we can, it's mean-spirited, it's petty, and it's gone on for much too long. I don't believe, like some do, that it's naive to talk to Republicans. I don't think we should look at Republicans as our enemies. They are our opposition. They're not our enemies.

While I will not be Joe Biden, I will not be silent, i intend to speak out clearly and forcefully, to influence as much as I can where we stand as a party and where we need to go as a nation.

As we walked out of the room and walked upstairs, I said - I told him my opinion that I thought he should go, but follow his own instincts, i never... say what I think finally until I go up in the Oval( Office) with him alone.

I don't think my chief enemy is the Republican party. This is a matter of making things work.
