Dem Strategist: Party ‘Badly' Needs Soetoro Back
2017-08-22
[Daily Caller] Democrats lack a deep bench for the 2018 and 2020 elections and "badly need" former President Barack Obama to return to public life, according to several Democratic strategists.

Brand Bannon is one strategist who has argued Obama needs to take a more prominent role in the Democratic Party, the Hill reported Monday.
"Democrats badly need Barack Obama," Bannonn said. "He offers such a vivid contrast to Trump in behavior and temperament."

"He always sounded reasonable and acted responsibly even if you disagreed with him," he said. "None of the potential Democratic presidential candidates have the visibility or credibility to be effective."

The former president is expected to campaign publicly for Democrats in the 2018 election cycle, as he did during 2016. He has already been involved in fundraising efforts. However, his reentrance into public life will be a "delicate dance," one aide told the Hill.

#7  No, the Democratic Party needs to be prosecuted under RICO and jugged for a long time, some of the Pubs too just because they are Swamp Dwellers.

#2  Democrats badly need Barack Obama

Didn't notice the lose of seats at national and state levels has he? I don't think he understands the mean of the word 'badly'. However, when your entire election strategy is to promote identity over substance and demonize most of white America, what else do you have?

#1  He'll be a very difficult catch, so busy with travel, philanthropy, book writing, a myriad of other things.

Yes, he's dreadfully missed isn't he ?
