Obama, acting as a character reference for his former primary foe and secretary of state, will make the case to Democrats gathered in Philadelphia for their national convention that Clinton is uniquely qualified to be president.

The president also criticized Trump for failing to “spend a lot of time trying to find out about issues”, such as US nuclear defense options, or the difference between Sunni and Shia Muslims. Liberals are unhappy with Kaine’s support for so-called “fast track” authority for a Pacific Rim trade pact, though Clinton aides say he now opposes the deal in its final form. I imagine newspaper editors would say they wanted live action from the stage, so Bill was the go-to photo. But if anyone is vindicating her position, its Sanders, dumping the Democratic party as soon as it was no longer useful.
I spent most of Tuesday night sobbing, full of pride and inspiration, disbelief even, that I was fortunate enough to see the day that a woman was made a major party’s presidential candidate. Even when the headlines, like the Sacramento Bee’s – noted that “Clinton shatters last political glass ceiling” – they still ran a photo of Mr. Clinton in front of the crowd. “What works in the real world is co-operation”, he declared then. Because I want to see a woman become president – but it can’t be her’. “Until you’ve sat at that desk, you don’t know what it’s like to manage a global crisis or send young people to war”, Obama said.
The Vindicator focused on the “boost from Bill” related to his speech. I know there will come a day when she will share with her children all of the historic front-page stories I’ve been squirreling away for her in a box since she was born. “But also when people look at resumes, there’s a default function on both sides that men are more qualified”. Describing her as the most eligible candidate to lead the nation, Obama said she would be the ideal antidote to the kind of ideology which Republican candidate Donald Trump wants to impose on America. But the former president has emphasized the historical significance of being the first male presidential spouse.
“As of yesterday, I guess, officially our campaign ended”, a teary Sanders acknowledged during a meeting with New England delegates. He detailed her efforts to spur early childhood education, her devotion as a wife and mother and called her “the best darn change-maker I ever met in my entire life”. “I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press”. “If we’re supposed to be the leaders in this world, how can countries that we consider repressive, not as equal, or less economically sound have a female president and we can’t?” More big pics of Bill! Though, FGOTUS, the acronym for the title, doesn’t quite roll off the tongue like FLOTUS.
Trump repeatedly put words in the former president’s mouth, mis-remembering the previous night’s speech.
Gore was trying to succeed Democrat Bill Clinton, Hillary’s husband, who served two terms as president.
“Nothing would make me happier than to wear that shirt”.
He told her: “While you were gone, I bought it, you have to marry me now”.
Sanders on Monday criticized Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump and urged supporters to fall in line behind Clinton for the good of the country. Then, in a dramatic turn, the screen virtually exploded into shards of glass, revealing Hillary Clinton’s beaming face, live from NY via satellite.

“I have never seen anything more craven than Mitch McConnell and what he has done to our democracy”.
