“I’m with her. I am fired up, and I can not wait to get out there and campaign for Hillary”, Obama said in a video released by the Clinton campaign.

“Obama claiming Hillary Clinton is the best for the job and she’s got the heart and the compassion is just another example Obama serial lying”, Lendman said.
The Senator, a staunch critic of Wall Street, was once considered a potential primary challenger to Ms Clinton, and had declined to endorse either the former Secretary of State or her progressive challenger, Bernie Sanders, until now. “I’m with her”, Obama said in a video released by the Clinton campaign.
According to the White House, next week Obama will begin campaigning with Clinton, who recently clinched the number of delegates needed for the Democratic nomination. Clinton, the former secretary of state, earlier this week secured the delegates needed to win the party nomination for the November 8 presidential election.
Trump returned fire later Thursday, citing Clinton’s controversial use of a private email serve while serving as secretary of state, in his attack.
Throughout his campaign, Sanders railed against income inequality, student debt and campaign donation regulations that empower wealthy donors – gaining a fervent following in the process.
It’s official: Elizabeth Warren is backing Hillary Clinton’s presidential bid. Till now, close to 52 superdelegates were known to have expressed their support for Hillary Clinton, while the support of 21 superdelegates was unknown.
Obama will certainly campaign for Clinton this fall. Sanders said on Thursday he would remain in the race through the final nominating contest in Washington, D.C., next week but would work with Clinton to defeat Trump.
“I don’t think there’s ever been someone so qualified to hold this office”, Obama said.
Sen. Bernie Sanders is vowing to stay in the race.
