Washington | US President Joe Biden said “I’m not going anywhere” as he faced calls by many Democrats to end his re-election bid, using the Fourth of July celebrations on Thursday (Friday AEST) to hit back at doubts about his stamina and mental acuity to continue his campaign.
The 81-year-old Democrat’s shaky showing at a June 27 debate with Republican rival Donald Trump means his every appearance is now closely scrutinised. Many Democratic voters are worried about whether he can keep up a gruelling pace of work for the next 4½ years, and some in his party have urged him to step aside.
