Obama Getting Back in the Political Game in Bid to Boost Flailing Democratic Party: Report

Is this what the embattled Democrats need right now?
As President Donald Trump chugs along his second term, generally notching more wins than losses, many Democrats have all echoed a similar question:
“Where is Barack Obama?”
Sans a party figurehead — like the role Trump presently occupies for the GOP — the leader-less Democrats have been looking for some sort of unifying voice to guide the party amid the ongoing Congressional reign of the Republican supermajority.
The last two leaders of the Democrats, former President Joe Biden and failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris, have both been somewhat rejected by their own party — once before, and once after the general election, respectively.
In lieu of such leadership, the Democrats have yet to find a current elected official to rally around, though that hasn’t stopped some younger voices, such as Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Jasmine Crockett, from pushing for leadership positions within the party.
Both Ocasio-Cortez and Crockett, however, lack the proven experience when it comes to guiding the Democratic Party as a large whole.
Obama has had that experience. He’s just not been especially present.
