Eu sei que existe um tópico com o título "Corrida presidencial", mas não tira minha dúvida. Corrida para a sucessão presidencial antecede a corrida presidencial. Trata-se do período de preparação para saber quem substituirá o presidente vigente.

In American jargon, we commonly call them "races," or "campaigns.":
primary race: selects the candidates nominated by each political party
presidential race: selects the winner from the general election
Note that generally the incumbent who is entitled to run for a second term (Obama in this case) does not have to go through the strenuous exercise of a full primary campaign, given that there is no other party candidate contesting the nomination. Obama's primary selection next year, for instance, will be unopposed (at least by a serious contender). Lyndon Johnson in 1968 was the last first-term incumbent who was challenged from within his own party for the nomination. He eventually decided not to run for a second term.
