While there is no other clear front-runner in the Democratic Party to take Biden’s place as a candidate, Rose said he believes it is time to move on.

"We have to turn the page, not just on this politics of ineffectiveness, but also these politics of division and vitriol," Rose said. "It's time to move on as a nation."
