Obama set to endorse Joe Biden for president: sources
WASHINGTON, April 14, 2020 (BSS/AFP) – Barack Obama will endorse his
longtime deputy Joe Biden for US president Tuesday, sources close to
the former commander in chief said, as the Democratic Party rallies
around its flagbearer ahead of November’s election.
Obama, a popular two-term president and Donald Trump’s predecessor
in the White House, will release a video Tuesday with his endorsement
of Biden, the sources said.
The 77-year-old former vice president is the Democratic Party’s
presumptive nominee, after his lone remaining rival Bernie Sanders
dropped out of the race last week and endorsed Biden on Monday.
