Obama - who remains one of the most popular figures in the Democratic party - said voters would not tolerate such conduct from a family member, "except for maybe a crazy uncle somewhere."
Mr Obama - oo weli ka mid ah xubnaha ugu caansan Xisbiga Dimuqraadiga - ayaa sheegay in codbixiyayaasha aanay u dulqaadanayn hab dhaqan noocaas ah hadduu la yimaado qof qoyska ka tirsan, "malahayga adeer wareersan oo meel uun jooga mooyee."
