Sen. Bernie Sanders, battered from his defeat in many Super Tuesday contests, warned President Barack Obama not to endorse Joe Biden, Obama’s former vice president who is now running neck and neck with Sanders for the Democratic nomination.
“I have not the slightest doubt that there is enormous pressure on President Obama to jump into this race and support Joe Biden,” Sanders said during a press conference about the status of his campaign.
Sanders told reporters he backed Obama’s pledge to support the Democrat who wins the nomination and his private assurances that he would not get involved in the primary.
“I agree with him,” Sanders said. “But that’s not easy for him to do. And I very much appreciate his willingness to do that.”
Obama has said very little publicly about the Democratic fight for the nomination or when he plans to give his coveted endorsement to one of the candidates, now likely to be Biden.
The Democratic candidates have touted their relationships with Obama.

Relax Bernie, I voted for you.
Did Sanders send him a noose with the threat?
I remember hearing the phrase March Madness and now i see what they were talking about.
In an earlier post i reported that our local CBS stations ran one each Obama presidential ads for first Bernie and shortly afterwards for Warren. Very interesting.
Communist cat-fight! Yeah!
did you shower afterwards?
Off topic question ...What could happen with Biden’s delegates if between the end of the primaries ( assuming for a moment Biden wins ) and the convention that for some “ medical or other reason “ Biden cannot continue on ?
Obama is on record saying he will be trying to bring Bernie down. His boss ValJar is big in the oligarchy running this little ball of rock. Bernie needs to hit him a bit harder. Bernie needs gloves off at this point. No more nice guy.
Biden is seriously brain damaged and loves to pet children for his own pleasure. That is not suitable for the presidency.
The super delegates control the process. The votes for the primary really don’t matter.
Crazy Bernie translation: Don’t get involved Obammy, or I’ll go third-party and burn this shit down...
Joe’s signs of early dementia / senility lead me to believe that even if he wins enough delegates that he won’t be the nominee .
So you admit you support Sanders?
Yeah. Kill each other! Yeah.
Agreed. I do believe the super delegates will disqualify biden and they will will not approve bernie.
Who knows?
Both cannot beat Trump.
I will say this. Biden was the best life insurance Obama could ever get.
The nomination goes to Hillary. Be careful what you wish for.
I don’t see the threat.
Not even a veiled one in his words.
I don’t care what happens to this guy as long as he never sits in the White House.
But at least he stands by his Disastrous and horrific adoration of communism.
That beats the rest of them in honesty.
