President Barack Obama is warning that early voting among African-Americans is lagging this year and threatens Hillary Clinton's prospects.

Obama told the "Tom Joyner Morning Show" that early voting is up among Hispanics, but not among black voters.

The president said people who care about his presidency must understand that all his accomplishments are based on his being able to "pass the baton" to a likeminded successor.

Obama also warned that Donald Trump could rip out first lady Michelle Obama's White House garden if elected. The interview was recorded yesterday and aired today.
