| Obama and Hilary Clinton |
PRESIDENT of the United States of America, Barack
Obama on Thursday candidly endorsed the former US Secretary of State, Hillary
Clinton for President in the forthcoming presidential election.
Obama made this known in a video
he posted to Clinton’s website after she secured the Democratic Party’s
nomination within the week.
“I’m
with her, I am fired up and I cannot wait to get out there and campaign for
Hillary.
“Tens
of millions of Americans made their voices heard. Today I just want to add
mine,” Obama said in the video. I don’t think there’s ever been someone so qualified to hold
this office.
“I have seen her judgment. I’ve seen her toughness. I’ve seen
her commitment to our values up close,” Obama said.
Apart from endorsing
Mrs. Clinton, President Obama emphatically pledged to meet with her in the
coming days and vowed to do everything he can to defeat Republican candidate
Donald Trump who is the nominee of the opposition party, the Republican.
However, Clinton’s rival, Bernie Sanders met with
Obama at the White House earlier on Thursday about the path forward for his
campaign.
It will be recalled that Clinton had
on Tuesday declared herself the party’s presumptive nominee after reaching the
number of delegates needed to be named its standard-bearer in November
elections.
