Biden won't run in 2016, boosting Clinton's White House hopes

By
Jeff Mason and John Whitesides WASHINGTON (Reuters) - U.S. Vice
President Joe Biden said on Wednesday he would not run for president in
2016, ending months of indecision and removing one of Democratic
front-runner Hillary Clinton's biggest potential obstacles to the
party's nomination. Biden, 72, appeared in the White House Rose Garden

At odds with Republicans, Hillary Clinton to testify on Benghazi

By
Jonathan Allen and Susan Cornwell WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Whether it's a
fact-finding mission as Republicans insist or the political witch hunt
that Democrats anticipate, the congressional committee investigating the
deadly 2012 attack on the U.S. diplomatic mission in Benghazi, Libya,

and now the top candidate for the Democratic presidential nomination.
Clinton and many of her fellow Democrats have seized on the comments in
recent weeks by Republican lawmakers as evidence that the goal of the
Benghazi committee in the U.S. House of Representatives was to hurt her
front-runner status in the campaign for the November 2016 election.
Clinton's appearance follows months of unflattering reports about her
use of a private home email server for her State Department work.
