Joe Biden was all smiles on Tuesday as he handed out the National Medal of Arts to luminaries including Bruce Springsteen, actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus, and writer Colson Whitehead, making jokes about their work as well as his own 2024 ambitions.
After listing out Springsteen’s many achievements, the president said some people are just “born to run” for public office, a reference to the famous Springsteen anthem of the same name.
