On Thursday, Barack Obama offered his official endorsement of presumptive Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton for president of the United States. "Look, I know how hard this job can be. That's why I know Hillary will be so good at it," Obama said, adding that he doesn't believe anyone has ever been so qualified as her to hold the executive office.
"I'm with her. I am fired up and cannot wait to get out there and campaign for Hillary," he said.
