President Obama Is About To Endorse Hillary Clinton And Devastate Donald Trump

President Obama may endorse Hillary Clinton as soon as this week, as the President is itching to get out on the campaign trail and take on Donald Trump.

The New York Times reported:
President Obama, after months of sitting on the sidelines of the rancorous contest to succeed him, is now ready to aggressively campaign for Hillary Clinton, starting with a formal endorsement of her candidacy as early as this week.

The White House is in active conversations with Mrs. Clinton’s campaign about how and where the president would be useful to her, according to senior aides to Mr. Obama.

Mr. Obama is particularly enthusiastic, aides said, about taking on Mr. Trump. The Republican candidate has personally offended the president with his conduct on the campaign trail — Mr. Trump referred to a black supporter on Friday in one of his crowds as “my African-American” — and as the most visible champion of the “birther” conspiracy theories that falsely hold that Mr. Obama was born in Kenya rather than Hawaii.

The first time I met Hillary in person.

It was a cold night at a Detroit airport terminal where the-Gov. Bill Clinton held one last rally before the Michigan primary. Bill and Hillary made their way down the rope line and shook hands. I shyly said good luck to both and began to stay away when she gently grabbed my arm and thanked me for coming out. That was 24 years ago and I still pinch myself knowing I met two future presidents.

Don't fret. Most of California already voted.

Mail-in ballot have been coming in since the beginning of May, so I doubt that turnout will drop significantly.

It's not all bad, Bernie

You got to travel the country in a chartered jet, let other people drive you everywhere, fly first class to Rome, score tickets to Hamilton and watch the Warriors in one of the best seats in the house. In other word, you go to do more in year than most of us do in a lifetime.......all on other people's $27.

So as you go home to Vermont one last time in that private jet, smile.
