USA 🇺🇸: A curiosity.
This isn't the first time Joe Biden has been urged to drop out of a presidential race.
He ran in the Democratic primaries for the 1988 election and had a good chance of winning, but in September 1987, reports surfaced that he had plagiarized a speech by British opposition leader and Labour Party leader Neil Kinnock. Additional allegations of earlier plagiarism in law school and exaggeration of his academic record soon followed, and Biden withdrew from the race later that month.

In light of the backlash and media pressure, Biden was forced to end his bid for the Democratic presidential nomination in the 1988 election.
