It's going to be on the 5th but close enough.. there will still be that feeling.

President Obama and his family always have a big party for Vets @ the White House on the 4th.. it's also Malia's birthday.. she'll be 18.. old enough to vote for Hillary!

Malalo!

They have history.. and admire and respect each other so much.. They have each others backs which is so important when there are so many who only want to take stabs.

Obama Will Campaign With Hillary Clinton in North Carolina

President Obama will appear next week with Hillary Clinton, the 2016 campaigning debut for the figure expected to be Mrs. Clinton’s most potent surrogate in the fall.

The two are scheduled to be in Charlotte, N.C., on Tuesday for what the Clinton campaign described as a discussion of “building on the progress we’ve made.”


Mr. Obama had been scheduled to campaign with the presumptive Democratic nominee in Wisconsin two weeks ago, but the event was canceled after the nightclub massacre in Orlando, Fla.

In a video this month endorsing Mrs. Clinton, his former Democratic presidential rival and secretary of state, Mr. Obama said he did not think a candidate had ever been so qualified for the office.

“I know how hard this job can be,” he said. “That’s why I know Hillary will be so good at it.”

The location of the rally is notable. Clinton aides view North Carolina as a potential opportunity to expand on Mr. Obama’s 2012 electoral map. He lost the state four years ago, after winning it in 2008.

President Obama delivers an EPIC takedown of Trump.
He's not a populist. He's a xenophobic nativist
