Biden has repeatedly stated his intention to run, and did so as early as 21 March 2006. Biden's Federal Leadership PAC is "Unite Our States", which tracks Biden's public appearances and policy positions. On 7 January 2007, when asked by Tim Russert on Meet the Press "Are you running for President?" he responded, "I am running for President." He also said he plans to create an exploratory committee by the end of the month.[55][56][57] On January 31, 2007, he officially signed the papers with the FEC to run for president.

See also: Political positions of Hillary Rodham Clinton

Hillary Rodham Clinton, born October 26, 1947, in Illinois, U.S. Senator from New York and former First Lady of the United States. Clinton announced the formation of her exploratory committee on 20 January 2007, with a post on her website.[58] She has delivered several speeches which analysts say are intended to reach out to moderates. She has also been holding fundraising meetings, including meeting with women from Massachusetts, a key constituency of potential rival and 2004 nominee John Kerry; however, these activities are consistent with the lead up to a campaign for re-election to her Senate seat in 2006. Many Republicans appear to be hoping that Senator Clinton will run for President, presumably believing her to be a polarizing figure.[59][60] If elected, Clinton would be the first female president. Clinton announced on January 20, 2007, that she will run in 2008 (the same day she announced the formation of an exploratory committee). She has filed the official paperwork for an exploratory committee.[61] New York Senator and former First Lady Hillary Rodham Clinton had long expressed interest in the 2008 United States presidential race[1], drawing media speculation since at least October 2002 on whether or not she would become a candidate. ...

John Edwards, born June 10, 1953, in South Carolina, former U.S. Senator from North Carolina, candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination in 2000 and 2004 Democratic vice-presidential nominee. As a presidential candidate, Edwards was famed for his populist message in his "Two Americas" speech and also for his optimistic, positive attitude. This was evidenced by his refusal to attack his opponents. In the primaries, Sen. Edwards had strong come-from-behind showings in the crucial states of Iowa, Oklahoma, Virginia, Tennessee, Wisconsin, and Georgia. He also won the North Carolina caucus and the South Carolina primary. Edwards has kept his Federal Leadership PAC, the One America Committee, active to help Democrats across the nation win elections in the future. On February 5, 2005, Edwards spoke at the New Hampshire Democratic Party's fundraising dinner. On August 18, 2005, Edwards traveled to Waterloo, Iowa, to deliver an address to the Iowa AFL-CIO, a potential key supporter in the Iowa caucus.

Potential candidates without exploratory committees

General Wesley Clark (Ret.)		 Wesley Clark, born December 23, 1944, in Illinois, from Arkansas, a Vietnam war veteran, a retired United States Army four-star general and former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO. He graduated first in his class from West Point. Clark is traveling widely through his Federal Leadership PAC WesPAC,[6] and is a commentator on MSNBC, while grassroots campaigns for Clark have become active on the internet.[7] Clark was a 2004 Presidential candidate as well, narrowly winning the Oklahoma primary. During a January 17, 2007, speech given to a local UAW group in Alabama and posted on YouTube, Clark stated "when I run, I'll be the national security candidate."[8]
Candidates who have withdrawn their candidacy

Former Governor Tom Vilsack		 Tom Vilsack, born December 13, 1950, in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, former Governor of Iowa, Chairman of the Democratic Leadership Council. Many suspected Vilsack was high on the list of potential running mates for John Kerry in the 2004 Presidential Election. In 2005, Vilsack established Heartland PAC,[9] a political action committee aimed at electing Democratic Governors and other statewide candidates. Unlike the PACs of potential candidates, Heartland PAC is not a federal PAC and can not contribute to federal candidates. He filed papers with the Federal Elections Commission (FEC) to run for President on November 9, 2006.[10] However, he dropped out of the race on 23 February 2007 citing fundraising woes-he has since given his support to Hillary Rodham Clinton.[11][12]

Declined to seek nomination

Potential candidates who decided against running

Al Gore, former Vice President of the United States		 Al Gore, born March 31, 1948, in Washington, D. C., is the former U.S. Vice President, and was the 2000 Democratic nominee, winning the popular vote. Gore and his family have commented upon whether or not Gore would participate as a candidate in the 2008 presidential election. Gore was quoted in December 2006 as stating on NBC's "Today,": "I am not planning to run for president again [...] I haven't completely ruled it out."[13] His son, Albert Gore III, followed with a comment in the 14 December 2006 article "Albert Gore: Dad's Doing Well, Not Running in 2008":"I know that [my father] has no plans to run in 2008 [...] Well, I guess I have to add his addendum. I think the way he always says it is, 'I don't see any circumstances under which I would run for president."[14]

Despite stating that he is not planning to run, Donna Brazile, Gore's campaign chairwoman in the 2000 campaign, made a series of cryptic comments during a speech on January 31, 2007, at Moravian College in Bethlehem, Pennsylvania which referred to the Academy Award nomination for An Inconvenient Truth. She said "Wait till Oscar night, I tell people: 'I'm dating. I haven't fallen in love yet. On Oscar night, if Al Gore has slimmed down 25 or 30 pounds, Lord knows." An Inconvenient Truth, won the 2007 Academy Award for Documentary Feature and Gore joined director Davis Guggenheim and other members of the cast on stage during the Academy Awards and gave a brief speech.[15] The Agence France-Presse, noted the day after the Academy Awards, on 26 February 2007, that:"Many analysts believe he could yet enter the 2008 race for the White House although Gore has repeatedly said he is unlikely to run for office."[16] In addition, in the 26 February 2007 edition of The Nation, John Nichols noted of Gore's speech at the Academy Awards: Image File history File links Download high resolution version (2400x3000, 929 KB) File links The following pages on the English Wikipedia link to this file (pages on other projects are not listed): Al Gore ...

As of 2007, Gore's popularity has increased among progressives and supporters of the Democratic Party since his loss to George W. Bush following the close 2000 election.[19][20] Gore received 68% of support among potential 2008 Democratic presidential candidates on a May 2006 Daily Kos poll[21] of those who voted, and 35% on July 13, 2006, AlterNet poll.[22] When compared to other candidates, Gore is usually third on most polls. A Gallup poll of August 2006 showed that nearly half of Americans currently view Gore favorably (48 percent to 45 percent).[23][24] A CNN telephone poll conducted by the Opinion Research Corporation of registered or independent leaning Democrats in November 2006 has Gore with 14% support in a theoretical multi-candidate Democratic primary.[25] A poll of Democratic Iowa voters in light of the 2008 Iowa Caucus put Gore at 7%.[26] In a recent California Field poll, Gore is second at 25%, behind Hillary Clinton by 6 percentage points; however, in the California Bay Area, Gore is the leading candidate.[9] Gore also has the highest approval rating when compared to other Democratic nominees. On August 8, 2007, Al Gore said that he may re-enter politics in the future, but will not run for president in 2008. However, he plans to make the climate crisis a focus of the election during the campaign.

Senator Evan Bayh		 Evan Bayh was born December 26, 1955, in Indiana, former two-term Governor and currently a second-term U.S. Senator from that state. In February 2005, Bayh renamed his Federal Leadership PAC the All America PAC and hired a new veteran staff with experience on the 2004 campaigns of John Kerry and Wesley Clark for President and Tom Daschle for senate. Although Bayh filed papers with the FEC to form a presidential exploratory committee on December 5, 2006, he announced on December 16, 2006 that he would not seek the Democratic nomination for President.[27]

Tom Daschle, former Senate Majority Leader		 Tom Daschle, born December 9, 1947, in South Dakota, former U.S. Senator from that state. He set up a new political action committee and planned a Jefferson-Jackson Day speech in the politically pivotal state of Iowa. Daschle has transferred $500,000 into the new Federal Leadership PAC, New Leadership for America.[28] In July 2005, Daschle said he was not planning a rematch against his successor John Thune in 2010, and he told the Sioux Falls Argus Leader newspaper that he was seriously considering a run and would not "rule out the possibility of an official announcement in the near future." However, on December 2, 2006, Daschle announced he would not run for President in 2008, and has since thrown his support behind Barack Obama's campaign.[29]

Howard Dean, former Governor of Vermont		 Howard Dean, born November 17, 1947, in New York, former Governor of Vermont. Howard Dean is the current DNC Chairman, and was a candidate for the nomination in 2004. Dean said if he won the DNC Chairmanship he would not run for president and, since he won, has often repeated this.[30]

Senator Russ Feingold		 Russ Feingold, born March 2, 1953, in Wisconsin, U.S. Senator from that state. Announced to a meeting of the Tiger Bay Club of Volusia County, Florida, in January 2005 that he was considering a run for the nomination, and would decide after "going around the country" to campaign for fellow Democrats running for other offices.[31] His Federal Leadership PAC is the Progressive Patriots Fund,[32] which financed his travels around the country.[33] In early March 2005, his Senate campaign registered the domain name for the website www.russfeingold08.com as well as the .org and .net versions.[34][35][36] Later that month, he took a listening trip to Alabama.[37] In early April 2005, Feingold announced that he would be divorcing his second wife, a move which some analysts believe could diminish his chances of winning the presidential nomination. On August 17, 2005, Feingold became the first U.S. Senator to publicly support a firm date for withdrawal from the Iraq War,[38] suggesting December 31, 2006, as a reasonable date. Although Feingold's stance was generally criticized by other Democratic senators, including Biden and Clinton, his support in nonscientific internet polls of party activists jumped. In December 2005, when he led the Senate campaign against the renewal of the Patriot Act his support among party activists further intensified. Following the overwhelming resonance for his anti-war and bi-partisan rule of law positions in the 2006 Congressional elections, Feingold commented that the legislative victory "pushes me in both directions," and "he could make a decision on a presidential run before the end of the year".[39] However, on November 12, 2006, Feingold ruled out a 2008 presidential candidacy,[33] but has stated he is willing to consider an offer from the eventual nominee for the vice presidency.[40] Feingold has stated that his first choice for president in 2008 would be someone who voted against the war in Iraq, and failing that, his second choice would be someone who wasn't in Congress but spoke out against the war at the time. He also said he would "be happy" if Barack Obama or Al Gore ran, but stated he was not offering an endorsement.[41]

Senator John Kerry		 John Kerry, born December 11, 1943, in Denver, Colorado, is the U.S. Senator from Massachusetts, and the 2004 Democratic presidential nominee. On March 1, 2005, Kerry created a new Federal Leadership PAC named Keeping America's Promise.[42] Dan Payne, a Democratic strategist, told the Washington Post that "This is the kind of thing he has to do" in order to run for president again in 2008.[43] Through Keeping America's Promise, Kerry boasts to have raised or given away over $14 million to nearly 300 progressive candidates, committees or causes.[44] Kerry told CNN, with respect to a run in 2008, "it's crazy to be thinking about it now" but went on to say that "I'll make my judgment when the time comes and I don't care what history says."[45] However, there was a controversy on October 30, 2006, over a speech made by Kerry at Pasadena City College. Future implications of his comments are still unclear, however Kerry himself claimed the incident will have little bearing on 2008 and that he will make a decision in early 2007.[46] On January 24, 2007, Kerry announced that he would not seek the Democratic nomination for the presidency in 2008.[47] Kerry and his JohnKerry.com e-mail list was also a supporter of Al Gore's recent house parties across the United States to spread information about global warming. In a letter e-mailed from JohnKerry.com, Kerry stated: "When strong leaders like Al Gore step forward to educate and organize people around vitally important issues, they deserve our full support."[48]
  • U.S. Senator from Massachusetts: 1985-Present
  • Lieutenant Governor of Massachusetts: 1983-1985

Al Sharpton		 Al Sharpton of New York, Pentecostal minister, civil rights activist, former candidate for mayor of New York and for the Democratic nomination for U.S. Senator from New York, and candidate for the 2004 nomination. When asked about 2008, he replied, "Don't get Hillary mad at me."[49] He was one of the first candidates to enter the 2004 race, but thus far he has said nothing more about 2008. His 2004 campaign was not a great success. He never got more than 10% of the vote in any state, although he did get 20% in the District of Columbia.[50] There are still unresolved campaign-finance issues left over from that campaign. In January 2007, when asked if he was considering running in 2008, Sharpton said "I don't hear any reason not to," adding, "we'll see over the next couple of months." [51]

On April 2, 2007, Sharpton announced that he won't get into the 2008 presidential race this time. "I am not going to run."

Mark Warner, former Governor of Virginia		 Mark Warner, born December 15, 1954, in Indiana, former Governor of Virginia. Time Magazine rated him in November 2005 as one of America's top 5 governors and Governing magazine said Virginia was the best governed state in the Nation under Warner's direction. Warner's profile increased due to his help in securing Tim Kaine's election to succeed him, seen widely as a rare victory for Democrats in a majority-Republican state. There is also a strong Draft Mark Warner for President movement.[52] On October 12, 2006, Warner unequivocally stated that he would not seek the 2008 Democratic nomination. But on December 17, speculation that Warner was again considering a presidential run was confirmed by former Warner colleague Dan Conley.[53] Whatever the case, Warner's fund-raising capabilities, his Forward Together PAC, and his potential as a Vice-Presidential nominee[54] all suggest Warner could play a strong role in the 2008 election.
