Want to see how to handle a heckler? Just watch President Obama.

[HerbChestnut]

No insults. No challenges of physical strength. Stays on message. Unites the audience. This is what leadership looks like.

[emulatorloo]

1. Did any of those hecklers shout out RW lies about Malia Obama?

[Skittles]

2. no

but he would have handled them just as easily

[cwydro]

41. He sure would have.

He knew how to handle them.

[Skittles]

49. yes he did

I think most women know too.

[cwydro]

50. Oh, very good.

So true.

[Siwsan]

3. Exactly.

[Polybius]

59. Malia Obama was like 13 at the time

Big difference, as under 18 kids are off-limits.

[madaboutharry]

4. There is only one Obama.

It’s a high standard.

Maybe Joe Biden could have tried to not take it so personally, but it may not be fair to compare people to President Obama.

[StarfishSaver]

38. People were much more hateful to President Obama than anyone has been to Biden

He just handled himself differently.

[treestar]

61. +1 and nobody thinks Biden could do as well

though he had 8 years to learn and observe, lol.

Different personality thought, and different opponent. Dotard has lowered every standard and we know the pundits will call our nice candidate "weak" for acting with integrity.

[LAS14]

5. Thanks! What an example!!!! nt

[Eliot Rosewater]

6. My god when I watch these I become ill.. a GREAT man is Obama and rump is

garbage.

makes me sick to think of what is in that WH now and MAD

[MyOwnPeace]

35. I hear 'ya, man.............

I feel like just banging my head against the wall thinking about how "far" we have come!

[LuvLoogie]

7. The glue is coming loose

from your undecided beard

[JoeOtterbein]

12. Come on Man!!!

You gotta know that Obama could never ever, even now, get away with losing his cool like that.

Imagine if Cory responded like Joe. Or Liz. Or Hillary.

The reaction would not have been so polite.

[cwydro]

51. Buttigieg would not respond that way either.

And of course, neither would Booker or Warren.

[JoeOtterbein]

52. Thankfully!

[BannonsLiver]

24. You noticed that too?

Super invested in this particular issue. It’s odd TBH.

[HerbChestnut]

26. Because I'm tired of divisive crap in politics.

[BannonsLiver]

27. Irony is dead.

[HerbChestnut]

28. Oh please.

[NurseJackie]

43. Bazinga!

[MrsCoffee]

48. Ain't that the truth, lol.

[George II]

46. Really?

[marieo1]

8. What a great president!!

What a brilliant man and negotiator President Obama is/was - he worked to bring us all together - not drive us apart.

[redqueen]

15. Exactly. We need that again. Unity. nt

[JoeOtterbein]

9. Because Obama was confident in himself.

Never ever did I see him sweat it a bit.

I miss No Drama Obama!!!

[BannonsLiver]

22. Me too

It’s pretty amazing Bernie didn’t want him to be the nominee in 2012.

[JoeOtterbein]

23. I voted for Obama over Hillary in 2008 in PA.

Would vote for him over Joe, or Bernie, now. I wish I could!

[The Valley Below]

10. Did Obama have to run against Trump?

Different circumstances.

We need a man like "Rabid Joe" Biden in this moment.

A bad-ass.

Americans saw a foreshadowing of what he'll do with Trump. Big win.

[Thekaspervote]

16. Yes!!

[Karadeniz]

11. Thanks SO MUCH for sharing! A true gentleman...looking past hate...❤❤❤❤❤

[redqueen]

13. K&R!

Really dismayed to see the support for personal insults here. Trump has truly changed this country.

[loyalsister]

40. Toxic masculinity

Actually, toxic white masculinity is ugly on any candidate. I am not impressed by the sense of entitlement and the way Joe is taking politics personally. I am both surprised and disappointed by the defense and celebration of it I see coming from supporters. While he lives with a unique sense of loss and grief, Biden has been in politics long enough to know better. He doesn't have to read every piece of hate mail and respond with an emotional reaction. The same goes for hecklers.

[cwydro]

42. This.

Thank you.

[pazzyanne]

14. Can I just say that I miss this man in the Oval Office.

Our present occupant causes daily pain to our people and our nation. Work hard and choose wisely in 2020.

[Maraya1969]

17. What was the guy in the third video saying and what were they chanting back at him.

The guy with the blue shirt and grey hair.

[MyOwnPeace]

36. Did you notice............

it is SO apparent that the "people in the background" are NOT hand-picked stooges/paid clones.
Remember when one kid not too long ago was making faces behind IQ45 (not sure if he was responding to the "brilliant statements" or what he was seeing from where he was sitting ) but there was a "swat team" that moved in and removed him so the the "background" was "sincere MAGA freaks!"

Seriously, keep that in mind and watch the first clip again..........................

What a marvelous man PRESIDENT OBAMA is - and I cry for our loss.

[Maraya1969]

39. OK I noticed that. But I asked a question. Do you know what the guy in the video

said? The guy with the blue shirt and gray hair. Or what they were chanting?

[treestar]

62. I couldn't make out what the guy in the first clip said either

and he was right there!

[Raine]

18. THIS is the way it should

done!!!

[Maraya1969]

19. The difference is that guy was attacking Biden's son. If someone attacked one of

Obama's girls like that I think we'd see blood shoot out of his eyes.

[redqueen]

20. How did he attack Biden's son? nt

[W_HAMILTON]

21. Are you being serious right now?

[Maraya1969]

25. Here's the video

Edit: I didn't realize that one was from Fox and they are apparently trying to spin it against him

[redqueen]

33. I watched it but couldn't really understand the guy.

From what I understand it sounds like he's saying Biden got him the job.

I don't understand how that's an attack - is there more that I missed?

[raging moderate]

30. .

People DID attack Obama's daughters, and his mother, and his wife, and sometimes with horrible twisted slanders. But, as Michelle and Barack always said, "When they go low, we go high!" The Obamas are wonderful!

[cwydro]

53. Number one, I don't think he'd have "blood shoot out of his eyes."

Number two, Obama’s daughters were minors when he was elected.

Hunter is a grown man who’s managed to make quite a mess out of his life. That’s nothing to do with Joe Biden, and he should be able to rise above it.

[The_Counsel]

54. Okay, I've Been Quiet About This Long Enough, I Guess.

Exactly HOW did Hunter Biden “make a mess out of his life?” Serious question.

[cwydro]

55. Feel free to google him.

There’s plenty to read.

[The_Counsel]

56. I Did. Where's the "Mess?"

Seriously...there has to be literally millions of people who have made a bigger mess of their lives than Hunter Biden. I know a few of them personally. And that’s even before you start counting people who have ruined their lives with drugs, alcohol or have gone out and killed someone or whatever.

I don’t know Hunter Biden, but I don’t see anything he needs to be ashamed of from where I sit.

He sat on a board of directors. So?

[cwydro]

57. Not going to rise to your bait.

There was a great article in the New Yorker about him.

[The_Counsel]

58. It's Not "Bait." I Seriously Want to Know.

I guess I can find the article and read it on my own, but you seem convinced the guy ruined his life or whatever. Can you give me the highlights at least. I mean....throw me a bone here....

[Lulu KC]

29. I could weep

I need to watch the SNL Come Back Barack song now.

[phleshdef]

32. False equivalency. They weren't smearing Obama's child to his face.

[NBachers]

34. Maybe Joe's had nuffa this shit and decided to say something about it. This is family stuff, and I

salute him for defending his family emphatically.

But - - - keep tryin'

[Joe941]

37. That's how it's done. He would never have done what Biden did.

[LanternWaste]

44. It's fun, but short-sighted to pretend there's only one way to address a thing.

Sure, 2+2=4, yet so does 10-6.

Consistency.

Hobgoblins.

Little minds.

[TidalWave46]

45. Obama isn't running.

Something from this cycle? I'm sure there is a good one out there. I also didn't see any of the hecklers in your videos going after Obamas children.

[George II]

47. When were either Sasha or Malia accused of taking a job to give a company access to Barack?

I'll wait.

[treestar]

60. Has anyone ever claimed that Biden or anyone

could do as well?

Running against Dotard, there is a case to be made that reacting like Biden did is better.
