Senator Clinton has shown herself to be an extraordinary candidate. She is tireless, she is smart. She is capable. And so obviously she'd be on anybody's short list to be a potential vice presidential candidate.
Barack Obama
The Public Record
Barack Obama served as the 44th President of the United States from January 20, 2009, to January 20, 2017. A member of the Democratic Party, he previously represented Illinois in the U.S. Senate from 2005 to 2008 and served in the Illinois State Senate from 1997 to 2004. Obama is known for his signature policies including the Affordable Care Act, also known as Obamacare, and his efforts in economic recovery following the 2008 financial crisis. His presidency was marked by significant legislative achievements and a focus on healthcare reform, climate change, and foreign policy initiatives such as the Iran nuclear deal.
I'm actually looking forward to it. If we're successful, I don't want to get ahead of myself here. Senator Clinton is a very formidable candidate.
Plenty of the pundits have suggested that this party is inalterably divided, that Senator Clinton's supporters will not support me, and that my supporters would not support her. Well, I am here tonight to tell you that I don't believe it.
We can go before the world community and say, we are ready to lead again.
We have probably taken as many hits as anybody has in this presidential campaign. Senator Clinton has not. John McCain certainly has not and yet I'm still here and, you know, competitive in both North Carolina and Indiana.
It is a love for this country that made my life possible. It is a belief in the American dream. That's why I'm in this race. That's what I'm fighting for.
The fact that we're still standing here and still moving forward towards the nomination, I think indicates the degree to which the core message of this campaign is the right one.
We can go before the world's community and say, we are ready to lead again.
If you don't have health insurance, then I want to make sure you can buy health insurance that's as good as the health care I have as a member of Congress.
And, so, you want to know who I am? You want to know what is me? It is a love for this country that made my life possible. Is it a belief in the American dream. That's why I'm in this race. That's what I'm fighting for.
I think people can say that my election symbolizes some progress, at least within the small confines of the legal community.
I want to make sure that your viewers understand that I am a Christian who has belonged to the same church for almost 20 years now.
We may be from different regions, from different parties, from different races, different religions, but one thing that we all are is Americans.
If you will vote for me, then I promise you I will not let you down. I will fight for you every single day. I will win Indiana. I will win this primary. I will win this general election, and you and I together we're going to change this…
After John McCain made the proposal, I guess Senator Clinton thought it was going to poll well, so she said, me too. I will do the same thing.

I think he handled it extremely well yesterday with the press conference. Because he looked angry, he looked human, and that was good, because he's always such a cool cat, and I think people wanted to see him... emotional, and he was.
