Former Vice President Joe Biden has used Barack Obamas beloved status among Democratic voters to insulate him from criticism from the massive field of candidates jockeying to be the next president.
But in recent weeks, the Democratic frontrunner has had that legacy used against him, with his competitors pointing the to shortcomings of the last Democratic administration as evidence that Bidens not up to the task of leading the next one.
Barack Obama, personally, is incredibly popular among Democratic primary voters, Karthik Ganapathy, a progressive consultant now running his own firm, told The Daily Beast. And also at the same time, theres a growing recognition that income and wealth inequality got worse under his eight years, the climate crisis got worse during his eight years, deportations went up during his time in office, and so on.

How to blame Biden but not obama....
Bahahaha!!!!
Creepy Joe waiting for that endorsement. ..waiting...waiting
And he put ‘migrants’ in concentration camps, broke up families and put children in cages.
That really is the funny part, they want to hold the Idiot Biden responsible for the Kenyan from Indonesia’s policies that Joe had no say in.
They love her in Paris. Obama transferred $500m to Green Climate Fund to protect Paris deal; leaves $2bn owing.
Obama took the 500M from the state department, as the first transfer was, using executive powers without congressional support.

Pres Obama helped secure the historic Paris agreement by transferring a second $500m installment to the Green Climate Fund, just three days before he leaves office.
The fund was a key aspect of the Paris agreement signed in 2015, which aims to keep global warming well below 2C and aspires to keep warming to 1.5C. Established in 2010, it is financed by wealthy countries and used to assist developing countries with adaptation and mitigation. It was widely seen as a key measure to bring both rich and poor countries to the negotiating table.
The US committed to transferring $3bn tax dollars to the fund. The new instalment leaves $2bn owing, with the incoming president, Donald Trump, expected to cease any further payments. The move followed a large campaign, with more than 100 organisations and nearly 100,000 people calling for Obama to transfer the full $2.5bn owed to the fund.
The Obama administration is refusing to let president-elect Trumps posse of oil barons and climate deniers dictate how the world responds to the climate crisis, said Tamar Lawrence-Samuel, of Corporate Accountability International, which led the campaign. Tens of thousands of people around the world called on President Obama to step up before Trump takes the keys of our government and tries to reverse decades of climate progress, she said. This victory is the climate justice movements opening salvo to the Trump presidency. And were not going away.

They love her in Morocco. She trotted to Morocco promising to teach Muslim girls w/ $100 million of YOUR tax dollars.
Then-F/L Michele, her mother and daughters in the Moroccan palace.
Look at that smile----Obama gave her $100 million tax dollars "to teach Muslim girls."
AND GET THIS: The $100 mill is to be held by the Chicago-based tax-exempt
Obama Foundation, to be doled out when needed (cue laugh machine here).
Like practiced con artists, the Obamas set-up this scam earlier---whining about "teaching Muslim girls.
Here she's posing w/ $100 million dancing in her head........millions of YOUR tax dollars.
Joe Biden is a racist.
Groper has processing issues. Go home, SloJoe.
"I suppose you're going to tell me that A) they're really worried about Moochelle the Sasquatch, and B) that anyone who agrees with them are going to vote for MORE socialism? C'mon man!"
