Barack Obama actually said...

"If I'm as eloquent as they are when they tell me what their hopes and dreams are, then I think I'll be successful."

"I'm so proud to endorse Joe Biden for President of the United States. I believe Joe has all the qualities we need in a president right now."

"I -- I love Joe Biden. And he will be a great president."

"My friend, a real leader, the next president of the United States of America, Joe Biden."
