is using those clips of Obama, I will give his campaign credit for that. But I suspect most of them are anecdotal and really just a president showing common courtesy to a Democratic mayor of a large city, as any Democratic president would be expected to do. You know, way back when there was a thing called protocol.

However many videos like that exist, I'm sure Biden could match Bloomberg 10:1 with similar videos of Obama talking about him. I bet some other candidates could also.
