Former president Obama visit White House to boost president Joe Biden’s morale for leadership as he reassures the world~details below
The former president of America Barack Obama will be attending the next week big climate Conference in Glasgow, but his appearance seems to be so unusual and rare at a world leaders event.
Mean while, Obama aides and friends told correspondent that the former President wants to help Biden win back world faith in American leadership on this issue, and get the global alliance back on track after four years of Trump.
But according to John Podesta who worked on Climate issues in the Obama White House and remains in the touch with the former president, who allerge that.
“Obama has a global following poll after poll show young people in particular are despairing of whether democracy can work, whether politicians are up to the task. They see Obama as inspirational and who tells it like it is, he said.
People who reacted to the conversation opined that “Obama’s presence at the COP26 began with suggestions from climate activists. But it really took shape in conversation with John Kerry, his former secretary of state and Biden’s special presidential envoy for climate.”
“The White House was eager for the help, officials said, requesting anonymity to discuss the behind-the-scenes conversations.”
People believed the former president Obama trip to the White House has considered not just acknowledgement in the Biden White House, it also reflects as an awareness of how much more Obama connects with people globally even now as a former president than current president Joe Biden does in the Oval office.
Even when Obama was at his most popular in America, he was always much more popular overseas, with his election seeming symbolic of the world’s superpower embracing internationalism and a new, forward-looking generation.
Mean while, Obama remains the inspiring figure around the globe, particularly with the younger people to which he will dedicate much of his time while in Scotland.
In coordination with his own foundation and Columbia University’s Climate School, he will host a roundtable with youth activists (including many who are alumni of his global fellowship programs) and urge business leaders to accelerate their own clean energy investments.
A State Department official called Obama “among our strongest global advocates for action,” adding that he’ll be “a welcome voice,” in describing the rare tag-team approach for two Presidents.
Biden is hoping to come across as more than aspirational talk and empty promises. Obama is hoping to come across as more than a geopolitical celebrity, and instead there throwing his credibility and popularity into backing Biden up. That’s especially the case with the President trying to convince the country and the world to see the $500 billion in funding that survived congressional infrastructure negotiations as a success, and not a failure because of how short it is of his original goal.
Plenty of people think it could work. But after Trump, they have their doubts.
