obama got 60 million. think of it, $60 million for a book. our country wasn't doing well with biden and obama, wasn't doing well. remember, president obama, you need magic to bring back manufacturing job. you need a magic wand, remember? >> okay. we like to fact check things around here. the president on the first one there, obama signed his book deal in 2017 after leaving office. usually that's how it works and the emoluments clause applies to federal office holders, those in office which obama was no longer when he made that book deal in march of 2017 after leaving office. but more than two years into his own presidency, it appears trump still has obama on his mind. and a new petition might only fuel that fixation a little bit more. the petition calls for renaming the stretch of manhattan's fifth avenue between 56th and 57th street president barack h. obama avenue which happens to be in front of none other than trump tower and could effectively change the address of trump tao to 725 president president barack h. obama avenue. it is a joke t

and biden, of course, was vice president under barack obama. it does use barack obama's name quite a bit and cory booker called him out for that. but that put them all in a very awkward position, particularly on immigration. i don't understand why biden didn't answer, is although barack obama did have what they say is a record number of deportations, they changed the way they counted them. they turned turnarounds into deportations that. is people who were caught at the border and immediately turned around, that was never counted as a deportation. and that probable li accouny ac the high numbers. i don't know why he didn't bring that to the audience's attention. >> let's talk about joe biden because the overall sense seems to be that he did what he needed to do but didn't wow anybody. dana mill bank called him brilliantly and gloriously adequate. and frank broonny writing in the "new york times" saying while he was better prepared and composed, quote, biden hardly put the doubts about his sturdiness and stamina to rest. there's that way in which

voters considering how popular obama remains? >> i don't think it will be the trump team. who knows what donald trump can say at any rally. i think it gives strength to other democrat candidates. especially the second tier who can try to make a move on something like that. i think president obama will stay out of this primary. this news is more of a hiccup in the scheme of things. we have another debate. that's where we'll see bernie sanders, elizabeth warren and joe biden on the debate stage. >> the times also reports relative to this whole topic that obama is hammering away at biden's campaign urging them to expand the aging inner circle. increase the number of younger aides. is he right there? are his closest advisers too old? >> i don't know if they're too old but if you like at biden's numbers among african-american, they skew much older. if you'll have a lot of voters who became active in the age of obama whether they reactivated their political advocacy or whether obama was their first vote, we're looking at a younger gene
