Biden previously said his health condition did not require additional checks, but he was ready if doctors request such.
"If I had some kind of medical condition that emerged, if somebody -- if the doctors came to me and said 'you got this problem, that problem'," Biden said, answering about what could make him leave the race.
An excerpt from the BET News interview, scheduled to air at 10 pm ET on July 17 (0200 GMT on July 18), was provided by CBS News.
The president believes that the only thing that age brings is wisdom.
There are growing calls among Democrats to nominate another candidate to replace Biden after his failure in debate with Donald Trump. Theoretically, the party will have such an opportunity at the congress in August, but in practice, it will be difficult to remove the primaries-winning candidate from the race if he does not refuse to participate. At the same time, Biden says he intends to stay in the race.
The second Biden-Trump debate is scheduled for Sept 10. The US presidential election will take place on Nov 5.
