The constitution lists the qualifications for President as:
No person except a natural born Citizen, or a Citizen of the United States, at the time of the Adoption of this Constitution, shall be eligible to the Office of President; neither shall any Person be eligible to that Office who shall not have attained to the Age of thirty-five Years, and been fourteen Years a Resident within the United States.
As far as I know, Mr Joe Biden meets these qualifications.

you possibly can haven't any opinion of Joe Biden and nevertheless say he's qualified to be President. It relies upon on how the question is asked and maximum polls are actually not worth interpreting besides. they only are a affordable style of non information. in spite of the undeniable fact that that's the way it truly works. anyone is asked in the event that they have heard of Joe Biden and that they are asserting "particular". Is he qualified to be President "particular" Then asked what's your opinion of Joe Biden "no opinion'. So for sure human beings would be attentive to the talents yet not the foremost factors. Polling is amazingly erroneous and pushed by the scale of the sampling the way the questions are asked and so on. so as that they might understand that Joe Biden is qualified, and haven't any opinion on no count if or not they like or dislike his rules they only understand his call and hyperlink it with qualified. A pollster can get any consequences they choose by ways they ask the question and to me they're a waste of time and don't mean lots. basically yet one extra reason to not do information or take care of subject concerns and then blame the applicants. i think of it grew to become into an particularly mature and person determination by Obama. It shows his character and situation for the rustic. it is likewise very lots in line with what he believes. Joe Biden met with the chief of Georgia previously Bush did. Biden is chair of the remote places family committee. many people who're severe with regard to the state of the rustic was hoping Biden may be the alternative. He has very much of integrity and is respected he additionally has an agile techniques. he's vivid knowlegable and speaks his techniques, he's likewise unlike McCain primary with fellow Senators including McCain. so a great way as i will remember John McCain has under no circumstances been chair of an significant Senate Committee. Which says something approximately his management skills to me. If i'm flawed please inspect a real resourse

Like some other candidates (Bill Richardson among them), he is eminently qualified to be president but doesn't stand a chance of getting the nomination. Maybe he'll be appointed to a cabinet position if the Democratic candidate -- which at this writing appears will be Hillary -- wins the election.

Is he over 35 and was he born in the US?
Yes, so per the constitution, he is "qualified".
If you meant to be more judgmental about it, we are just coming through 8 years of a presidency headed by a chicken hawk who's family appears to have bought him a free pass out of the Viet Nam War. I don't have a problem with draft dodgers serving in higher office, but when that is your history and you deem yourself a "war president", your "qualifications" should be questioned --- and yet with nothing else to run on, he won a landslide reelection.
Never underestimate the ability of the American public's ability to make poor voting decisions.
I like Biden. He has one of the better resumes for the job. I think he has as much or more political experience as anyone else running and he isn't just a politician blowing smoke up our asses. His policies make sense and are well thought out. They are not standard party line political posturing. He is a man of conviction.
Sadly, Americans respond well to having smoke blown up their asses. Any political analyst will tell you Americans like the guy who tells them everything is all right. American loves a cheerleader --- even if they lie to our faces repeatedly. Which is why people like Clinton, Romney, and Giuliani are front runners and honest candidates like Biden and Gov. Huckabee are long shots.

He does have some interesting qualifications. But, it looks as though he's never conviced the Democrat Party of this.

No. He's not qualified because he's a Democrat. But a borderline retard, figurehead governor is qualified if he has a famous name and his daddy's contributors' list.
