Obama seeks to broker peace between Clinton and Sanders
The Hill ^ | June 9, 2016 | Jordan Fabian

Posted on 06/09/2016 7:02:57 AM PDT by McGruff

President Obama made the call a day after Bernie Sanders vowed to fight Hillary Clinton all the way to the Democratic convention in Philadelphia.

The tense primary fight between the heavily favored Clinton and her liberal challenger had already gone on much longer than anyone had anticipated.

While Clinton had a clear lead in votes and pledged delegates, Sanders’s most vocal supporters were showing no signs of giving in. Despite Donald Trump’s stumbles on the GOP side, Democrats worried their presidential candidate could be hurt if their party were too divided in the fall.

Obama, the great peace maker. As long as they understand it's all about him.

Obama hates Hillary
Hillary hates Obama
Hillary hates Sanders
Sanders can’t stand both of them.

What could go wrong.

Pressure on Sanders, now we see if the independent socialist could be bought.

Not knowing this person myself, if he surrenders, will his followers wise up and become bitter clingers?

Watch Obama carefully over the next few weeks and don’t forget that Hillary’s fate is in his hands.

He knows what the FBI is going to do.
He knows what Loretta Lynch is going to do.

We don’t. But his actions (and FBI leaks) will give it away.

He will either be All-In for Hillary the Never To Be Indicted. Or he will be Soft for Hillary in preparation for the Sorry Hillary Too Bad About That Sever Phase.

Interesting Times.

Of course we are... big time. Obama will spend all summer flying all over the place, doing fundraisers, campaigning and of course playing lots of golf. This will all be on the taxpayers' dime of course.

I hope Bernie characterizes Bambi’s input as THREATS.

China is trying to take over the Pacific.

The economy sucks.

Obama’s laser-like focus is on two old Democrat geezers fighting over who gets the last dish of lime jello.

I’m thinking that Obama will blow this meeting with Sanders so bad Bernie will threaten to run third party.

Trump must meet with Sanders and convince him that if Hillary takes the nomination that his supports should turn to Trump if we are to save America.

Trump for President.

LOL. Broker a peace is pure BS. Obama is going to give Bernie the message ala a Mafia don. Get out of the race before the convention and support Hillary—or else.

Sanders is a stupid Socialist but I doubt that he wants to be the only thing standing between the Soetoro/Cankles treason indictments.

Me thinks the royalty is nervous about some things.
