    Does anyone remember when Obama recommended people vote for a certain foreign candidate?

    I vaguely remember Obama meddling in a foreign election back in 2016. I think it might have been an Israel election but I am not sure. I can't find any video but I remember him having a very public commercial where he urged people to vote a certain way in their election.

    Can anyone help?

    Is it this?



    Excerpts:

    ...Obama, as a U.S. Senator, illegally used a taxpayer-financed trip to campaign for far-left presidential candidate Raila Odinga in Kenya’s 2006 elections.

    ***

    During Israel’s 2015 elections, the Obama administration — led by Secretary of State John Kerry — illegally intervened when they attempted to defeat the reelection of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu by covertly funneling State Department grants to opposition groups.

    ***

    ...Obama’s ambassador to Macedonia, Jeff Baily, worked to funnel millions of dollars from the State Department and USAID to groups created by Soros which were, according to JW, working to overthrow the conservative government.

    ***

    In 2011, Obama and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, not only interfered politically in Libya but militarily as well, by orchestrating a series of policies designed to remove Muammar Gaddafi from power.

    ***

    Instead of supporting the right of Hondurans to remove their president for unconstitutional actions, Obama tried to pressure Honduras into reinstating Zelaya by freezing all non-humanitarian aid.

    ***

    Like Libya, the Obama administration encouraged opposition to President Hosni Mubarak and intervened in elections to ensure that a radical Muslim Brotherhood leader, Mohammed Morsi, was elected president.

    The long history of the U.S. interfering with elections elsewhere


    Excerpts:

    ...the United States does have a well-documented history of interfering and sometimes interrupting the workings of democracies elsewhere. It has occupied and intervened militarily in a whole swath of countries in the Caribbean and Latin America and fomented coups against democratically elected populists.

    ***

    Aside from its instigation of coups and alliances with right-wing juntas, Washington sought to more subtly influence elections in all corners of the world. And so did Moscow. Political scientist Dov Levin calculates that the “two powers intervened in 117 elections around the world from 1946 to 2000 — an average of once in every nine competitive elections.”

    It seems like it was this. I remember Obama filmed a commercial where he specifically urged people to vote against the reelection of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. I think that was it anyways...
