Obama is a Democrat and supports our party no matter the candidates prior affiliation.

Sadly Bernie, himself, wanted to primary a very popular sitting President in 2012. That would be Obama. See the difference. Obama will stand with him should he win when Bernie made the moves to primary him. Bernie had plans to run against our beloved Democratic nominee

See the difference? Obama is a Democrat and loyal to our party.

"I'm not going to tell you that he and I are best friends, but we're friends. And I have talked to him on and off for the last many years, was sitting down alone with him in the Oval Office on more than one occasion. Talked to him on the telephone every now and then. He is an icon, clearly, in the Democratic Party, and I have absolute confidence that he will play a vigorous, vigorous role," Sanders said.

An icon you wanted to primary.

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for: Joe Biden
