Odaily News According to multiple people familiar with the former US President Barack Obama's thinking, Obama has told allies in recent days that President Biden's chances of victory have greatly diminished and that he believes the president needs to seriously consider his viability as a candidate. It is reported that Obama has only spoken to Biden once since the debate some time ago, and he emphasized that he is concerned about protecting Biden and his political legacy and refuted the view that he alone can influence Biden's decision-making process.
