Obama’s Vice President is about to win South Carolina…
It will only be Biden’s first win…
Biden , who IS carrying Obama on his back with Black voters, still hasn’t seen his former boss give him even a wink in public….
Bernie Sanders, the guy who wanted to primary Obama, a sitting President in a party Sanders isn’t a member of, but hangs with, four years ago has continued to diss him…
But Barack Obama, as is true to his past?….
Is being cerebral about things….
He’s made it known that he wants the Democratic Party to stay in one piece, something that just hasn’t been since ole’ Bernie Sanders decided HE wanted to take that party where he wanted to, but has stood on the sidelines..
Mike Bloomberg has run ads with Obama in it from back in the day…
Obama has had tell others to stop using old video of him in doctored ways…
Hmmmmm?
Barack Obama has not set foot in South Carolina recently, but he has become a flash point among the Democratic presidential candidates as they compete for black voters in Saturday’s primary there and in the bigger, diverse Super Tuesday contests next week.
In statements and a campaign ad over the past few days, former Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. has accused Senator Bernie Sanders of disloyalty against the nation’s first black president for considering a primary challenge against Mr. Obama in 2012. Mr. Sanders insists he didn’t consider it.
Former Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg has spent about $22.4 million so far on two national television ads featuring several photos of him with Mr. Obama, something Mr. Biden has sought to undercut by questioning whether the two men were close.
Other candidates have praised Mr. Obama on the airwaves and debate stages as well as in early primary and caucus states this month, a sharp turnaround from the criticism that some 2020 contenders lobbed last year at his record, especially on immigration. The new embrace is a measure of his popularity with black voters 12 years after his last contested election in South Carolina, where he beat Hillary Clinton in a rout that cemented, once and for all, his standing with black voters nationwide.
Mr. Obama hasn’t tried to referee how the current candidates are using his name, image or record, and he has studiously avoided playing favorites. He does have opinions about the race, several of his allies say, but has made it clear that he sees his main role as unifying the party after a nominee is selected and helping ease tensions among warring supporters…..
