LAS VEGAS, Nevada - Democratic presidential front-runner and former U.S. Vice President Joe Biden mounted a fierce defense of Barack Obama’s legacy on Saturday after several of his White House rivals attacked that record in debates this week.
U.S. Senator Bernie Sanders from Vermont, another progressive standard-bearer and White House candidate, also backs a Medicare for All, government-run system and was due to speak at the forum. Part of that ideological fight among the large Democratic field has seen some of Biden’s rivals question Obama’s legacy, as a means to criticize Biden who served as his vice president for eight years and who has embraced Obama’s record. On the campaign trail, he frequently refers to the “Obama-Biden” administration.
