Joe Biden released a new campaign ad Tuesday with a familiar face: that of former President Barack Obama.
The three-and-a-half-minute video, titled, “America: Anything Is Possible,” centers on Obama’s comments during the January 2017 ceremony honoring the former vice president with the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
The ad touts Obama saying Biden, now 76, is “no where close to finished.”
“Serving as @BarackObama’s Vice President was a privilege and an honor. We share the belief that America is a place where ordinary people do extraordinary things and anything is possible,” Biden said on Twitter Tuesday announcing the release of the video.

The video release follows Biden’s claim last week that he asked Obama not to endorse him during the 2020 presidential election campaign, telling reporters: “Whoever wins this nomination should win it on their own merits.”
Biden announced Thursday he is running for president. He is currently is leading early nationwide polls for the Democratic nomination.
