Obama, Biden, Crooked Hillary and many others got caught in a Treasonous Act of Spying and Government Overthrow, a Criminal Act. How is Obama's Puppett Biden now Allowed to drop Out and Annoint Kamala for President? ELECTION INTERFERENCE!

They just want to get the same words out so that Fox can yell it and "confuse" the issue when it's used against Trump.

According to the source, Obama believed it was important for the Democratic Party to have a legitimate process by which delegates would select their new nominee. An Obama adviser told CNN that the former president was taking the same approach as he did during the 2020 Democratic primary, watching closely with the intent of being able to unify the party when a nominee is chosen – whether it was Harris or someone else. Obama’s statement was intended to keep the focus on Biden – his former vice president – on the day he announced he was no longer seeking a second term, the adviser said.
At least someone got a say in who it is...
I just hope in 2028 we have an actual fair and open primary. We're going to have to see who Kamala puts in charge of the DNC to have any idea what 2028 will look like tho.

Obama's primary wins are probably the last time they were actually democratic.

Maybe in 08. But in 2012, like this year, there were only a few challengers, and they were actually less successful. Mainly a former Tennessee nominee for the 3rd congressional district. He got a total of 117,033 votes. An author named Darcy Richardson who got 109,764 votes. And convicted felon Keith Russel Judd, who got 73,138 votes, which was mainly from him winning 41% of the West Virginia vote, with such a low number. The uncommitted/no preference option got 426,336 votes. There were a couple other candidates but it wasn't really a contest, no debates were held and Obama got 8,044,659 votes overall. Which is less than Biden did this year with 14,465,519 votes. There were more successful candidates this year than in 2012, Dean Philips got 529,486 votes, and of course uncommitted got 706,591. Overall, Obama got 90.1% of the vote in 2012 and Biden got 87.1% this year.
Incumbents don't usually have challengers. And almost never hold debates like people wanted this year. While 2012 had more challengers, none were serious, just like this year. His 08 primary wins were more serious, of course, but I don't think that's an apt comparison.

His 2008 win was still contested by Clinton supporters, who claimed that party elites made the decision against the will of the voters.
