Every Democrat needs the Black vote to win the presidency. If the president had lost and the Clintons stayed on the sidelines during the campaign I’m guessing that they would have been accused of sabotaging the election and this would have denied Hillary an important voting bloc in 2016. That’s my guess but I think it’s safe to say that Bill and Hillary have nothing but contempt for the president and Bill hated making that convention speech and being on the stump for him. It’s all about 2016 and not risking the support of a group that gives the Democrats well over 90% of its support in presidential elections.
What you guys said makes sense, although it makes me want to throw up thinking about it.
