NO ONE told Obama to take his name off the ballot in Michigan. It was not part of this 'pledge' among the candidates to not campaign in Michigan & Florida. Right before he withdrew his name from the ballot he was over 15 percentage points below Hillary in the polls. He did it because the numbers sucked (you know, numbers is a part of the math you so love to mouth off about), he did it for strategic reasons to try and negate a win by Clinton and it was done in an attempt to suck up to Iowa and NH voters.
The constant spin about I see about the DNC telling the candidates to take their names off the ballots in either states is utter bullshit.
