Mayor Pete was no President Obama on this, LOL! - But it was still very good and shows he's a great sport!

If I were to vote in a presidential
primary today, I would vote for:
Joe Biden

I hope that everyone enjoys the sketch, plus it gives Pete some publicity when there are so many other topics in the news (mainly about Trump failures).

He doesn't have the smooth delivery that President Obama had with this, but he's still new and it shows that he has a good sense of humor. And we need as much of that as we can get these days! Thanks for posting!

I got the impression that Mayor Pete's delivery was a little nerdy on purpose.

I really like these slow jams. Obama's was definitely best. I hate to admit it, but even the vile Chris Christie managed to be a good sport and act somewhat human long enough to do his slow jam.

Now if only MF45 and Mullah Pence would let their interns show them how to DM Mayor Pete for some advice!
