President Barack Obama finally announced his endorsement of his Vice President Joe Biden’s presidential campaign on Tuesday.
Obama had remained neutral after a a record high number of Democratic candidates fought for the chance to rival U.S. President Donald Trump at the Nov.
3 election.
But on Tuesday, Obama posted a video online saying that he's Pro-Joe.
Obama explained, "Choosing Joe to be my vice president was one of the best decisions I ever made and he became a close friend." He added, "I believe Joe has all the qualities we need in a president right now.” Obama's endorsement comes a day after Senator Bernie Sanders backed Biden.
Democratic strategist Antjuan Seawright called Obama “a uniting partner in helping bridge this party after an intense primary and paving the road ahead.”
