Former President Barack Obama's statement on President Biden's decision to end his reelection campaign noticeably didn't include an endorsement for Vice President Kamala Harris. CBS News' Norah O'Donnell, Robert Costa, Ed O'Keefe, John Dickerson and Margaret Brennan have more on that.

  • The corporate media does more instigating than reporting the news🤦🏽‍♀️🙄
  • @Miamipiano33
    Obama should wait until Biden addresses the country
  • @Dewdrops7560
    And neither has Bush 43, the only living former Republican president ever endorsed Trump. Neither will his VP or over 30 delegates from his administration... What's your point,?
  • @danrich6448
    Why not back Harris? Because it's been like 5 minutes. Everyone should at least take some time to explore options based on this new development.
  • @micnak3574
    Obama is being respectful to Biden at this very moment. He is not rushing to endorse Kamala so that he can first honor Joe appropriately.
  • @navysealf1
    Who gives a F about what those traitors said???????
  • Of course he doesn’t he has other ideas for a nominee they just can’t let go!
  • @LeroyHines-z2c
    G where is the black woman president for the Republicans 😅
  • @chewyjello1
    Looks like we might get an open convention. Just not sure how they are going to pull it off this quickly!
  • @GJ-is6sv
    Can VP Harris pick a running mate from her State of California to be on the Presidential ticket?
  • @Melrose51653
    He helped this happen without a clue who could take Bidens place
  • @blueowlwill8754
    Just because Biden dropped out doesn’t mean that Kamala is a good choice. Once again, We the People don’t want her either
  • @deborahlewis656
    Still worrying and focusing on Trump, when your own party isnt telling voters WHO to even vote for...maybe get your own side in order, before chicago dnc🤔
  • I believe that.. NO hyena! Obama when he heard 'Kumala's 'A Moment in time' the bus just PLOWED down the hillside.
