Ed Klein: Champ urging Joe to make WH run, rejecting meetings with the Beest.
2015-10-20
[Breitbart] President Barack Obama is refusing to meet with Hillary Clinton while he and his allies are urging Vice President Joe Biden to challenge Hillary Clinton for the Democratic nomination, according to author Ed Klein.

On Breitbart News Sunday on Sirius XM Patriot channel 125, Klein told guest-host and Breitbart News Editor-in-Chief Alex Marlow that Obama and his allies--Michelle Obama and Valerie Jarrett--have "been searching for months for an alternative to Hillary." According to Klein, they first approached Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA)14% to challenge Clinton. When she declined, they approached former Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley and realized that "he didn't have the stuff."

"Now, they have been urging, promoting, cajoling, pressuring, pushing Joe Biden to get into the race," Klein said.

Klein mentioned that in his newest book about Hillary Clinton--Unlikeable: The Problem with Hillary--there is a scene in which "Hillary confronts Obama and demands in no uncertain terms" that Obama "do something about the leaks coming out of the White House regarding her emails."

Klein said that meeting took place "several months ago and they have not met since, despite the fact that Hillary has asked for more meetings, and they have all been rejected."

"That alone tells you a lot," Klein said. "This White House doesn't want to have anything to do with her if they can avoid it."
If he's doing his job and keeping the boss updated, FBI Director Comey will have kept the Champ informed on potential outcomes regarding the current email scandal. This is likely confirmed by the 'she made a mistake' rhetoric recently released by the Champ, which by the way, distressed the Bureau greatly. 'She made a mistake' however, is more than a simple statement, it's an entire legal defense. She cannot be pardoned unless she is first 'under the bus.'

#4  As #1 + #2 on the National Command Authority, only POTUS Obama + VPOTUS Biden can order, or NOT order, any rescue attempt ala Benghazi - among other, the main inference or implication by seemingly "throwing Hillary under the Bus" is that the Hillary acted wholly independently from the Bammer andor Biden vee Benghazi, + that the Bammer is NOT in charge or in control of his own Admin, WHICH IS CONTRARY TO HIS CHARACTER + POL HISTOIRE'.

#3  If the Beest wants a meeting with Champ she should learn to play golf. Bubba never had this kind of problem.

#1  The desperation in the Clinton camp is due to the Donk program to take the election by millions of illegals voting merely to cover the Party's coup. The Inner Party is now jockeying for who gets the crown. See the leadership brawl after Lenin's death.
