Ken says this is not really breaking news, because Obama IS the presumptive nominee, but I still think it's a pretty big deal. He could have endorsed Hillary before, and he could have chosen to not endorse anyone.
Dear Beth,
A few hours from now I will step on stage in Detroit, Michigan to announce my support for Senator Barack Obama. From now through Election Day, I intend to do whatever I can to make sure he is elected President of the United States. Over the next four years, we are going to face many difficult challenges -- including bringing our troops home from Iraq, fixing our economy, and solving the climate crisis. Barack Obama is clearly the candidate best able to solve these problems and bring change to America.
This moment and this election are too important to let pass without taking action.
Over the past 18 months, Barack Obama has united a movement. He knows change does not come from 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue or Capitol Hill. It begins when people stand up and take action.
With the help of millions of supporters like you, Barack Obama will bring the change we so desperately need in order to solve our country's most pressing problems.
On the issues that matter most, Barack Obama is clearly the right choice to lead our nation.
Thank you for joining me,
Al Gore
