President Barack Obama speaks Tuesday at a campaign event for Hillary Clinton at Eakins Oval
in Philadelphia.

Obama hits the trail

for recovering Clinton
By Kathleen

PHILADELPHIA Accusing Republicans of fanning

hate, President Barack Obama
on Tuesday stepped in to
defend a temporarily benched
Hillary Clinton, hoping to
reassure Democrats nervous
both about their presidential
candidates health and her
handling of fresh trouble on
her campaign.
Speaking at an outdoor rally
in a Democratic stronghold,
Obama praised Clinton as
the most qualified candidate
ever to seek the office and
mocked her opponent Donald
Trump as not fit in any way
to lead. He suggested Clinton was again the victim of
unfair treatment and a scandal machine that has dogged
her throughout her long political career.
What sets Hillary apart
is that through it all she just
keeps on going and she
doesnt stop caring and she
doesnt stop trying and she
never stops fighting for us
even if we havent always
appreciated it, Obama said.
I understand, were a young
country, we are a restless
country. We always like the

new shiny thing. I benefited

from that when I was a candidate, and we take for granted
sometimes what is steady and
true. And Hillary Clinton is
steady and she is true.
The remarks were the closest Obama came to mentioning Clintons rough weekend,
during which she disparaged
half of Trump supporters
and then backtracked somewhat on her remarks. She also
was forced to abruptly leave
an event because of an illness
she had not disclosed.
To an audience of roughly
6,000 supporters in downtown Philadelphia, Obama
argued that Clinton has been
more transparent in providing
health and financial records
than her rival, as well as
releasing her past tax returns
while Trump refuses to release
his.
Obama said the Clinton
Foundation has saved countless lives around the world,
while Trump used his charity
to buy a six-foot-tall painting of himself, Obama said,
referencing a Washington
Post investigation of Trumps
charity.
I mean, you know, he
had the taste not to go for the
10-foot version, he said.
Obama is seeking to

generate momentum and

some passion for Clinton in a race that has become
uncomfortably close for many
Democratic supporters. The
latest poll by Quinnipiac University found her with a 5
percentage-point edge over
Trump in Pennsylvania.
Obamas event at an outdoor plaza in front of the Philadelphia Museum of Art was
his third for Clinton, including
his speech at the Democratic
National Convention, also in
Philadelphia. The president,
who remains broadly popular
among the Democratic base,
is viewed as a key asset in
pushing die-hard Democrats
to the polls, especially in battleground state urban centers
such as Philadelphia.
Greeted with chants of
thank you!, the president
sought to trade on that popularity. He told the crowd that
hes enthusiastically behind
Clinton and they should be,
too a sort of acknowledgment of lack of enthusiasm
among the ranks about Clintons bid.
Look, can I just say I am
really into electing Hillary
Clinton. Like this not me going
through the motions here,
he said. I really, really, really
want to elect Hillary Clinton.
