Vice President Joe Biden has reportedly confided to a group of Democrats that he's trying to figure out if he's got the "emotional fuel" to run for president.
The 72-year-old Biden, whose son Beau died from brain cancer in May, said he would have to commit his "heart" and "soul" to a White House run – but both are "pretty well banged up," CNN reports.
The call was supposed to have been closed to the media, The Hill reports.
"If I were to announce to run I have to be able to commit to all of you that I would be able to give it my whole heart and my whole soul and right now, both are pretty well banged up," Biden told Democratic National Committee members on a conference call Wednesday.
Biden said ultimately, he's got to decide if he has the "emotional fuel" in him, CNN reports.
The vice president also said he's making his decisions based on conversations with his family members.
