to receive President Obama's endorsement.

So yes, I agree that the endorsement will come Wednesday.

On Edit: Obama is in NY on Wednesday. The endorsement could come the day after she secures the nomination, but in NY rather than at the White House.

They are both scheduled to be in New York on Wednesday. Obama will be there for a party fundraiser.

Interesting timing.

Wednesday sounds good. I hope it will happen! Although he might wait until the last primary in DC.

Of course, Sanders will cry "unfair!"

he must. He prob will; just as Bush looked worse to Republicans for "electing" Obama in a sense, Obama would look bad to Democrats if he "elected" Trump.

if he doesn't officially endorse I am hoping for something. At this point we know that Bernie is just in it to destroy the party so....why wait around to let him stab us in the back.

I trust that Obama is not fooled by Bernie. These 8 years have turned a brilliant politician into a superman of timing and manipulation and insight. If I were Bernie Sanders I would not be so confident about this game he is trying to play. Hillary is about to bring her big guns out.
