Obama will not endorse a Democrat Presidential Nominee but he is attacking Republicans ad nausea & demeaning and degrading their ideas.

Sgt Tom Cunnally - Sergeant; Personally I'd prefer to see the President of the United States of America be "above party politics" the way that the Founding Fathers "originally intended".

However, that simply isn't going to happen (and hasn't been happening since [roughly] 1790).

Since it isn't going to be happening, I can live with "The party I belong to supports 'X' while the other party opposes it.".

Endorsing/condemning specific candidates, on the other hand, isn't something that I'm overly comfortable with.

Until someone else is elected he acts as the de facto head of party for the Democrats, as the senior ranking Democrat holding office.

As such, the R v D debate is well within his purview.

Sgt Jay Jones - Which Republican Presidents took cheap shots at the Dems when they were running for president ?? Curious minds would like to know.
Did you ever see Reagan, Bush 41 or Bush 43 go on late night TV and demean and degrade any Dems who were campaigning for President....Did you ever see their Press Secretaries spend hours at their new conferences say anything negative about the Dems ??

Sgt Tom Cunnally - First of all it is Bush 41 and Bush 43. Second Ronald Reagan said "I will never say anything bad about another Republican". Then he proceeded to slam Democrats.

Sgt Jay Jones - Thanx for the corrections for Bush 41 & Bush 43..I don't recall Reagan slamming Dems or if he did it was usually in jest..He got along great with Tip O'Neal who led the House forever and a very strong Dem

But what about Obama spending so much time on Public Radio or TV slamming the Repubs who want to succeed him...I doubt any Repub Presidents have done that..

The whole GOP process so far has been a pitiful clown car act.

Capt Walter Miller I have to agree with you. If you listen to each candidate from day to day there seems to be a overall theme of saying whatever you thing will get you elected regardless of facts or truth.
