Former President Bill Clinton on Tuesday said that, as candidates, Bernie Sanders and Barack Obama have "traumatic differences" in appeal â and dispelled any notion that the Vermont senator could beat Hillary Clinton, his wife, in the race for the White House.
Bill Clinton told NBC News' Andrea Mitchell at a campaign event in New Hampshire that President Obama had a different feel than Sanders, calling the president "new, different."
"Barack Obama is not Bernie Sanders, let's not play cheap games here," he said.
