Barack Obama endorsed Hillary Clinton: I’m with Her
Share:

WASHINGTON:  Thursday American President Barack Obama promoted Hillary Clinton who had been his rival in one-time, signaling to Democrats that it's time to unify after a bitter primary campaign and beat Donald Trump. Although, Obama’s endorsement is a shot in  the arm for the Clinton campaign.

Obama said in a video endorsement, "Tens of millions of Americans made their voices heard. Today I just want to add mine, 'm with her’.

Their first joint campaign event will take place in Green Bay, Wisconsin on Wednesday, June 15. Obama won the state in 2008 and 2012, but Democrats expect a tough fight this year.

Clinton finally clinched the nomination just days ago, prompting Obama to offer his backing. "I don't think there's ever been someone so qualified to hold this office," Obama said.

The 44th president's backing gives Clinton a potent surrogate on the campaign trail. Ex-presidents George W. Bush and Bill Clinton were so toxic by their eighth year in office that would-be successors kept them at arm's length.

Though, Obama is still one of the country's most popular politicians. His approval ratings among black, Hispanic, young and liberal voters are stratospheric.

Clinton welcomed the vote of confidence: she tweeted, echoing one of Obama's own campaign rallying cries from 2008
