Biden didn't even care to run.
The DNC has every right to do just that in the case the candidate drops out of the race for any reason. They could, literally, do away with delegates entirely in the beginning of the convention and just appoint anyone who meets the Constitutional qualification requirements for president. And the way they have their rules and superdelates now, that's what they pretty much do anyway. They pick who they want to win, and the rest is just a big show.
