Washington-Sana
Former US President Barack Obama announced today his support for candidate Joe Biden against current President Donald Trump in the presidential race to the White House.
“I am proud of my friend Joe Biden’s support for the presidency of the United States of America, and for all of us who love this country, we are ready to play our part to make sure it reaches the highest ideals,” Obama posted on his personal Twitter account.
"Join us in Joe Biden's presidential campaign, and I'll see you on the campaign soon ... It's time to fight for what we believe in," Obama added.
Biden's expected support from Obama comes a day after Senator Bernie Sanders gave his support to Biden after he withdrew from the race.
Sanders suspended his campaign last Wednesday, paving the way for former Vice President Biden to be the candidate to confront the Republican president in the elections that will take place on the third of November.
