Put aside all current issues and just look at the fundamentals. Obama was a charismatic politician and organizer who inspired youth vote and a way-above-average black turnout. Makes sense. Biden by contrast lacks rizz in any appreciable amount. He isn't going to move the needle for young people or any particular groups. He has no built-in support.

It is really as simple as that.
