Washington – The Democratic Party is considering nominating James Buchanan, not Joe Biden, for the US presidential election in November. Most Democrats see Buchanan as a better candidate than Biden.
In recent weeks, concerns have been growing about Joe Biden’s mental health. During a key election debate, Biden recently struggled to pronounce his words and appeared disoriented. More and more members of the party are questioning whether the 81-year-old Biden is still fit to serve another term as president. Democrat James Buchanan is said to be in better shape.
Democratic Party Chairman Jaime Harrison would like to see James Buchanan’s grave exhumed before the next election: “Buchanan is a man of vast political experience. He was also president from 1857 to 1861. As far as I’m concerned, he’s the right candidate to take on Trump. The fact that Buchanan actually died in 1868 doesn’t change that.”

If Buchanan wins the election, he will become the first U.S. president to be reelected posthumously. “I see the fact that he has been dead for over a hundred and fifty years as an advantage. As a result, he can do less damage to the party than Biden is doing now,” he said. “Of course, Mr. Buchanan is in an advanced state of decomposition, but so are the other candidates.”
