Obama posted the message along with a campaign poster of Biden-Harris. Former President Clinton too chimed in as he joined the conversation saying, “Count me in,” before adding, “Who else is going to be there?”
Biden too replied to the campaign ad, and said, “You guys know you can just call me next time, right?”
The March 28 event is expected to be one of the bigger campaign events for the incumbent candidate as Biden is more used to holding smaller events for fundraisers.
The president is also scheduled to hold three smaller fundraising events in the Big Apple this week and he is scheduled to reach the city at around 12.40 pm.
