I bet Sanders is not Obama's favorite person at the moment.

Obama probably prefers Sanders personally, to be honest.

LOL, he just said it would be best if Obama had someone run against him in the primary. He campaigned for Obama's re-election.

No. He said that Obama running against a primary challenge from the left would make him 'stronger' and 'more progressive'. Which is actually the same thing I am hearing the Hillary cult say about Bernie.

Which is honestly pretty silly. I have no idea what Sanders was thinking.

Well I was specifically talking about the idea of a competitive primary challenge making Obama 'a stronger candidate'.  That's just...dumb and I'd have to imagine Sanders regrets he said it.

Exactly, he wouldn't even be running if Hillary wasn't a white woman.

No, I don't think that's it. If Elizabeth Warren, a white woman, was running, he probably wouldn't be.
