Former president Obama has had about enough of Joe Biden. He finally stuck the shiv in.
According to the New York Daily News:
Speaking at a private event in Singapore, where he's travelling with former First Lady Michelle Obama, former President Barack Obama implied the front-runners from both parties should step aside for a female candidate.
...and...
"If you look at the world and look at the problems it's usually old people, usually old men, not getting out of the way," Obama continued.
...and...
The 58-year-old former two-term president reportedly said powerful men are too stuck in their ways to move the world forward.
"They cling to power, they are insecure, they have outdated ideas and the energy and fresh vision and new approaches are squashed," he said.
Cling? We remember "cling." The whole statement is a far cry from what Obama was saying about old men when he was running for president in 2008. According to the New York Times:
"I want somebody with gray in his hair," Mr. Obama, then 46, told one of them. He was thinking about an "older guy," he told another.
So who could that old man Obama described with that impressive string of cliches — "outdated ideas," "stuck in his ways," "clinging to power," and "not getting out of the way" — be?
Bernie? Obama's never had much to say about Bernie. Can only be Joe Biden. Obama's already on record earlier as saying Biden can't cut it. He also repeatedly tried to talk Biden out of the presidential race entirely. And he's withheld his endorsement to Biden, an astonishing rebuke to a man who faithfully served him for eight long years and did his part to politically help him, pulling in the white working class vote, effectively assuring those voters Obama was not a communist.

“The whole statement is a far cry from what Obama was saying about old men when he was running for president in 2008.”
In 2008, Joe had gray hair (some of it was even his own)... but he was 66, not 78.
SO HE WANTS TERM LIMITS?
I heard once that Obama picked Biden as his running mate because having a dumb white guy around would make him look good.
Since then I have not heard or seen anything to change my mind on that.
Sounds like a bad movie,two disbarred take a trip...........
Speaking at a private event in Singapore, where he’s travelling with former First Lady
Poor Barry. Thinks he’s still relevant.
> Poor Barry. Thinks he’s still relevant.
It’s probably more of a “we have to keep our hand on the lid or the whole pot boils over”
When Biden began his campaign, obamy told him, “You don’t have to do this, Joe, you really don’t.” That says a lot. The only reason the DNC is still behind him is he is the only thing they can hang their hats on with this farce of an impeachment. What’s mind boggling is how no msm points out that he wasn’t, isn’t and will not be Trump’s political opponent until the DNC officially makes it so.
Joe Biden checked all the boxes for Obama: mainstream Democrat, friendly old white guy, simpleton, bought by the deep-state, and above all, would never challenge or outshine Obama.
Maybe he could give us some examples of countries run by females who are doing a great job.
I’ll wait........................
“I mean, you got the first mainstream African-American who is articulate and bright and clean and a nice-looking guy. I mean, that’s a storybook, man.”
Michael LaVaughn Robinson is male.
Keeping that lid on a boiling pot will cause it to explode.
Yet more evidence for what is already obvious: Big Mike will be the nominee, and he is being rolled out very deliberately.
Big Mike will be sold (falsely) as a non-political icon who will heal the divisions in America. BM is already being sold that way at every turn.
Warren and Biden are both playing along with the game, and will emerge as BM’s backers in an historic compromise eliciting euphoric hosannas from the communist media.
It is all so dreary and predictable.
Angela Merkel? Eva Peron?
/SARCASM !!!
Although Obama would choose her, never anyone like Maggie Thatcher or Golda Meir.
Yet, I wonder if he is commander in chief of the deep state effort to bring down Pres. Trump.
“energy, fresh vision and new approaches”
Communism is antithetical to freedom. Everything the left pushes is rooted in dictatorial, tyrannical, despotic control of your life. What is new about that?
Men worked for a couple thousand years to throw off the despotism of kings. Who wants that back?
