President Biden is spending his 79th birthday in his hometown of Wilmington, Delaware.<\/p>\n
A day ahead of his birthday, the president told reporters “I feel great” after undergoing the first of his annual physical exams, which took place Friday morning at the Walter Reed Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland.<\/p>\n
“Nothing has changed. We’re in good shape. And so, you know, I’m looking forward to celebrating my 58th birthday,” the president joked.<\/p>\n
Biden made history last November when he became the oldest person ever elected president. If he campaigns for reelection in 2024 and wins, Biden would be 82 at his second inaugural and 86 at the end of his second term.<\/p>\n

\n Biden leans to hear a reporter’s question as he returns to the White House, Friday, Nov. 19, 2021, in Washington, from Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. There\u2019s been plenty of chatter and speculation in recent weeks whether the president will run for a second four year term in the White House.<\/p>\n Asked in March at the first formal news conference of his presidency about his 2024 plans, Biden said, “My answer is yes. I plan on running for reelection. That’s my expectation.”<\/p>\n This week the president made New Hampshire \u2013 a key 2022 midterm election battleground and the state that for a century has held the first primary in the presidential nominating calendar \u2013 his first stop to sell the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure measure that he signed into law on Monday.<\/p>\n
