Obama warned he would intervene to stop Bernie, had cutting words for Biden: report

Former President Barack Obama once warned he would intervene to stop Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., from winning the Democratic presidential nomination, according to a new report that sheds light on Obama’s personal views of the jam-packed primary field with no clear front-runner.

Obama has largely stayed on the sidelines to date, refraining from any endorsements though he has issued general warnings to the party to avoid calls for radical upheaval in their policy pitches. These warnings were seen as a swipe at candidates like Sens. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., and Sanders.

But a new Politico Magazine report gives a clearer picture of what Obama is worried about — claiming he has said in private he’d speak out against Sanders if it looked like he could actually win. […]

The Politico piece said Obama recalled to one candidate who came to him for advice how he himself had a bond with the voters that has since faded. He reportedly added, “And you know who really doesn’t have it? Joe Biden.” …

Foreign interference for sure.

We really should insist on natural born citizen and not let them install any more usurpers.

What is even scarier is that Obama is probably the most reasonable voice in the whole scary irrational bunch!!

The only chance the Dems have is to somehow prevent Trump from running.

IMHO, The Dems already basically recognize Trump has a chance to win in 2020

What they are trying to do now is poison his name so they can save the Republican Party for the Deep State. They don't want any Republicans running under a Trump banner.

He’s not supporting his VP, now he’s going after the aging commie. Who’s next on his hit list? He may be clearing the deck for Mike.

Do you personally know anyone who likes Big Mike Obama? I never hear anyone say anything positive about her, and I deal with a lot of people (some of whom liked his husband).

Obama doesn’t like the Bernmiesters full frontal approach to push socialism as it alerts too many “proles” He prefers the stealth method of bringing forth communism, incrementalism as it were.

He was a monster with foreign policy, practically betting muslims to kill.

But domestically..he had the house and senate at one time and they didn’t vote on 90 percent taxes for the rich or a bunch of other things i though they would push through..

obamacare was a disaster though.

could have been worse, those 8 years

A coup, selling baby parts, a multi tiered justice system, the drugging and indoctrination of children, and authorities standing down while the worst of humanity burn American cities

And you don't think that's "Ugly"?

The red lines drawn by the right GOPe are the crowings of children.

GOPe: never-Trumpers and the "I support Trump but..." underminers.

Who would be dumb enough to seek Idi Obama’s advice on anything except how to work a teleprompter?

Kamalass Harris or Correy Booger?
