“There's so many other things I want to do in terms of the Biden Institute and foreign policy, and the Biden Institute in Delaware on domestic policy. To keep the things going that we started, and I think we can get it done.”
Secret documents from Biden's vice presidential administration were discovered in a private office at the Penn Biden Center. Sensitive documents from the Obama administration were also found at Biden's Delaware residence.
Biden speaks out on his decision to withdraw from WH race

Asserting that he saw himself as transition president, transitioning to a new generation of leadership, he hailed his administration for “getting things done that people thought we couldn't get done.”
The 81-year-old incumbent President went on to say that he “decided that it was better” to withdraw and let Kamala Harris run for the office.
Biden emphasised that it was his “greatest honor” to sit behind the resolute desk as the US President. “I loved it but, it sounds corny, I love my country more.”
