Former US President Barack Obama on August 21 tweeted support for the Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden saying, tonight “our next President” made the case for his vision for America and “I'll be doing everything I can over these next 75 days to make sure we get it done.” Obama’s supportive statement comes as Joe Biden accepted the 2020 Presidential nomination, and urged the Americans to join 'battle for the soul of the nation’ at the  Democratic National Convention.

In his live-streamed address, themed “America's Promise," Biden said that the US was in times of “division” and he’ll be “an American president” and represent “all citizens” and not just his democratic party. “America’s ready,” Biden said, as he appealed to the US nation for unity and “find the light once more”. Meanwhile, the former US President Obama voiced his efforts in transforming Biden’s vision into a reality, he had earlier launched a scathing attack on President Trump, saying, that “Mr. Trump had “shown no interest in putting in the work. No interest in finding common ground,” in a live speech from the Museum of the American Revolution in Philadelphia streamed by the AP. He also accused Trump of having “no interest in using the awesome power of his office to help anyone but himself and his friends.” Obama accused Trump of using the presidency as anything but one more reality show to “get attention”. "Do not let them take away your power," he implored American voters. "Do not let them take away your democracy,” Obama appealed.
