      Jeet Heer Retweeted Barack Obama

      1. Obama's endorsement of Biden is really worth listening to. The amount of time Obama gives to making the case to Sanders supporters is a good indication of what Biden needs to do to bring the party together.https://twitter.com/BarackObama/status/1250088269502709762 …

      Jeet Heer added,

      I’m proud to endorse my friend @JoeBiden for President of the United States. Let's go: https://twitter.com/i/broadcasts/1PlJQmrlRMzJE …

      2. Bernie's supporters were attracted to him for a very specific policy agenda (M4A, free college, Green New Deal). Just having Sanders himself endorse Biden won't move enough people unless it is accompanied by genuine moves on these issues.

          Obama is very good at lying to progressives during campaigns. I’ll give him that.

          That’s why he won’t be able to rally people around Biden. The ppl who support Bernie don’t necessarily love or trust Obama

          ExCUSE me. But bullshit. #Trump is the issue. @joebiden is not #Trump. End of argument. Yes, even for Berniebros.

          My Blue State’s primary comes late in the season, so our votes often have little impact on results. This year I wanted to vote for Warren, but it’s too late. I’m disappointed that I had no voice in selecting the DEM nominee, but I’m still voting for Biden because I’m a Democrat.

          Replying to @HeerJeet

          Remember Obama campaigned for single payer in 2008--which 1 yr. later became the ACA which helped many while leaving 10+ million w/out health ins. & enriched insurance & Rx corps. So we’re suppose to believe Obama/Biden's support of public option w/they abandoned while in office?pic.twitter.com/oDU6KyWAOW

          Bad faith argument. You’re ignoring the legislative reality. They wanted the public option but couldn’t get the votes. Would you rather they did nothing?
