Obama steps into the presidential race for the first time to demand South Carolina TV stations pull 'despicable' Republican ad using his voice that attacks Biden because it 'takes my words out of context'
[MAIL] Former President Barack Obama is sending a cease and desist letter to television stations in South Carolina demanding that a Republican-backed, anti-Joe Biden attack commercial be taken down.

The super PAC, Committee to Defend the President,' began airing the ad earlier this week as South Carolina prepares for its Democratic presidential primary on Saturday.

Obama, however, wants it pulled down because it relies on audio and quotes from his 1995 book, 'Dreams from My Father,' in a 'misleading way,' says a spokeswoman for the former president.

#3 There have been lingering questions about the actual author of 'Dreams from My Father.'

Something for attorney Sidney Powell to possibly have a look into? Legal standing ?

#6 "The voter requires care and feeding:
He can't be entrusted with reading
My book all alone
But must always be shown
That his own lying eyes are misleading.
Yes, indeed. Securely root him in context osmunda fiber, protect him from facts overfeeding and outside agitation chills, and he'll do fine, just fine."

#7 What Obama said was meant to distract the idiots and true believers from his true policies. This is very similar to Trumps' tweeting strategy in which everyone was up in arms about tweets and ignored the fact that McConnell got so many judges into position that the 9th circuit is now leaning right.

#10 Hiya, Lex. Been real busy with, uh, business. Lots of business. To tell ya the truth, I was kinda hopin' you might be available to work with me after, uh, the election and all that. Looks like you're workin' pretty cheap here! Say, have you ever noticed how nicely "please, please, don't go!" meshes with "In the Heat of the Night?" Alexa, uh, play Ray Charles...
