Their political fates now entwined, President Barack Obama will implore voters Wednesday to elect Hillary Clinton to the White House, appealing to the women, minorities and young people who powered his rise and are now crucial to hers.
“The Donald is not really a plans guy”.
“She was doing everything I was doing, but just like Ginger Rogers, backwards and in heels”.
“We’ve been consumed with crisis after crisis after crisis”, he said.
