Vice President Joe Biden once again left the door open for running for president in 2016.

Speaking in an interview on the Today Show that aired Thursday, Biden refused to shoot down the idea that he might run in 2016.

"I am never ready to close the door on anything," Biden said. "I am intent on reelecting Barack Obama president of the United States of America. The rest will take care of itself."

Biden's comments mirror those he made in October in an interview with CNN.

"My one focus right now is getting the president reelected. I'll make up my mind on that later," Biden said to CNN. "I'm not closing any door. My job now and will be vice president of the United States and we got the order right â€" President ! Obama and Vice President Joe Biden."

Biden has repeatedly said that he is focused on reelecting President Obama first and then eh will decide about another presidential run. Biden previously ran for president in 2008.
