Seven in 10 Americans say they do not want President Biden to run for a second term, according to a new poll that comes as Biden’s approval numbers remain low and his party braces for losses this November.
A Harvard CAPS–Harris Poll survey shared exclusively with The Hill found that 71 percent of respondents polled do not think Biden should run for a second term, compared to 29 percent who say he should run.
Among the contingent of respondents who believe the president should not run, 45 percent said Biden should not make another bid because he is a bad president, while about one-third of respondents said he is too old and about one-quarter said because it is time for a change.
“President Biden may want to run again but the voters say ‘no’ to the idea of a second term, panning the job he is doing as president. Only 30 percent of Democrats would even vote for him in a Democratic presidential primary,” Mark Penn, the co-director of the Harvard CAPS–Harris Poll survey, said.

Well, if we look at the voting populace, about 50%~ of eligible actually turn up, and that's presidential.
If that 50%, how many are actually well read on current events and the happenings of the government? Look at that %, and how many of those who keep up actually go past a handful of MSM outlets?
So we're left with a very small portion of the country who really explore their political world view.
There's always going to be a small group who supports the current guy. Sad really.

I still want him to be the DNC nominee. There's no way in the world the public would buy a 'legal' election again if he came out the victor, and would most likely shake some sense into the gullible sheep.

...who are the 29% ?
Republicans.
Why wouldn't they not want him to run?

People didn't vote for Biden, they voted against Trump.
No one made that a secret either. At no point have I known a Biden supporter. Only anti Trumpers.
None of my liberal friends like Biden. Lesser of two evils in their eyes. Kind of a running theme in modern American politics.
