is about to have a lot more free time. He need look no further than for ideas on what to put on his retirement to-do list.

At age 82, Biden is . In a recent interview with USA Today, he acknowledged uncertainty about his future stamina, saying, 香蕉视频直播淲ho knows what I香蕉视频直播檓 going to be when I香蕉视频直播檓 86 years old?香蕉视频直播�

But his age isn香蕉视频直播檛 remarkable for former presidents, nine of whom lived past 90. They include George H.W. Bush, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, John Adams, Herbert Hoover and Jimmy Carter, .

A look at some traditional 香蕉视频直播� as well as a few decidedly less conventional 香蕉视频直播� ways Biden might spend his upcoming years:

Try to bolster his place in history

Unlike his presidential predecessor-turned-successor, , Biden almost certainly won香蕉视频直播檛 try a political comeback.

The Democrat has said little publicly about his post-Oval Office plans. Those who have long known him say it香蕉视频直播檚 not something he香蕉视频直播檚 discussed much beyond a tight circle of close aides.

Some modern former presidents have collected large fees for post-White House speaking engagements. Biden, who was plagued most of his term by , could use such appearances to try to bolster and future popularity. He told USA Today that he wanted his legacy to be having worked 香蕉视频直播渢o restore the economy and reestablish America香蕉视频直播檚 leadership in the world.香蕉视频直播�

The good news for Biden is that presidents often see their popularity improve after leaving office.

Republican George W. Bush was unpopular at the end of his term amid the Iraq War and the financial crisis. But he became more favorably viewed in subsequent years, despite keeping a low public profile while . Trump was similarly dogged by low approval ratings throughout his first term, but won back the White House in November.

Fundraise and plan for a presidential library

A priority for Biden is likely to be fundraising and beginning work on plans for his presidential library. It probably would be in Biden香蕉视频直播檚 home state of Delaware, where he was a senator for 36 years and spent many weekends while president.

Officials have already enlisted at least one Biden administration ambassador to help with fundraising. A model can be the Barack Obama Presidential Center, a 19.3-acre (0.08-square-kilometer) library and museum in Chicago. , with completion expected in 2026.

Sort through keepsakes 香蕉视频直播� carefully

Biden can be something of a pack rat, aides say, and may want to hang on to memorabilia from his White House years. He needs to proceed with caution.

Federal elected officials are required to relinquish official documents and classified materials when they leave office. Biden香蕉视频直播檚 personal lawyers have been working on careful document management since even before at the in Washington and in Biden香蕉视频直播檚 Delaware garage.

Those discoveries followed an in 2022 on Trump香蕉视频直播檚 Florida club, part of a that was scrapped after he won back the White House. In Biden香蕉视频直播檚 case, special counsel later released a report impugning the president香蕉视频直播檚 age and mental competence but didn香蕉视频直播檛 seek criminal charges over mishandled documents.

香蕉视频直播淲e are going to do our best, certainly, to be careful to follow the rules, to do this the right way,香蕉视频直播� White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre said when asked about document retention on Friday.

Write another memoir 香蕉视频直播� also carefully

Biden hasn香蕉视频直播檛 expressed much interest, those close to him say, in writing another book. He香蕉视频直播檚 written two memoirs, 香蕉视频直播淧romises to Keep香蕉视频直播� published in 2007, and 香蕉视频直播淧romise Me, Dad,香蕉视频直播� released in 2017.

He might eventually opt to work on a third, though, to help cement his aforementioned legacy. Again, he would need to proceed with caution.

Hur accused Biden of being sloppy about sharing classified information with , who worked on Biden香蕉视频直播檚 first two books. The special counsel considered charging Zwonitzer with obstruction of justice because the ghostwriter destroyed recordings of interviews he conducted with Biden while they worked on his second memoir.

Ultimately, Hur香蕉视频直播檚 report said Zwonitzer offered 香蕉视频直播減lausible, innocent reasons香蕉视频直播� for having done so and subsequently cooperated with investigators.

Revel in the ex-president香蕉视频直播檚 club

A longtime enthusiast of political tradition, Biden could well embrace membership in the . The former commanders in chief from time to time pose for pictures and pat one another on the back while milling around at historic events 香蕉视频直播� and sit together at VIP funerals.

Former presidents also sometimes take on special projects together such as during the or raising money after natural disasters. They rarely criticize one another and tend to offer even fewer harsh words about current White House occupants.

This will be a chance for Biden to again differentiate himself from Trump, who showed little interest in spending time with former presidents after losing his 2020 reelection bid. That was similar to how he shunned typical post-presidency endeavors like working on building a presidential library, instead concentrating on his 2024 campaign.

Biden already convened his own former presidents club of sorts while still in office: He prepared for his State of the Union address last March by holding .

Morgan Freeman, Tony Goldwyn, Geena Davis and Michael Douglas offered advice and encouragement, as did Bill Pullman, who played President Thomas J. Whitmore in 香蕉视频直播淚ndependence Day.香蕉视频直播� Pullman seized on Biden香蕉视频直播檚 ever-present optimism in his public comments to predict, 香蕉视频直播淧eople, when they look at all that you香蕉视频直播檝e managed to do, they香蕉视频直播檙e gonna remember. Time will remember, always, your words.香蕉视频直播�

Try his hand at show business?

Speaking of celebrities, Biden has floated the idea of more glitzy post-presidential pursuits.

In August, about a month after he scrapped his reelection campaign, : 香蕉视频直播淭hat香蕉视频直播檚 why I invited you to the White House 香蕉视频直播� because I香蕉视频直播檓 looking for a job.香蕉视频直播�

When Jessica Alba helped celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month at the White House a few weeks later, Biden joked that he might soon need the star香蕉视频直播檚 business connections to help find work, saying, 香蕉视频直播淛essica, if I香蕉视频直播檓 really good, maybe you can get me a job?香蕉视频直播�

He offered a similar joke at a December event for , telling Robert De Niro, 香蕉视频直播淚f I get in trouble, I香蕉视频直播檓 coming to you, pal.香蕉视频直播�

香蕉视频直播淚香蕉视频直播檓 looking for work in February,香蕉视频直播� Biden said to laughter. 香蕉视频直播淢aybe you香蕉视频直播檝e got something for me? A Biden-De Niro combination? I can香蕉视频直播檛 sing, I can香蕉视频直播檛 act, I can香蕉视频直播檛 dance, do a damn thing 香蕉视频直播� but I could help ya.香蕉视频直播�
