PORTSMOUTH, N.H. -
With hugs and handshakes,
Bemie Sanders endorsed Hilla-
ry Clinton for president on Tues-
day and emphatically told his
supporters their “political revo-
lution” must now turn to elect-
ing his Democratic former rival.
Sanders bestowed his long-
awaited support before a bois-
terous New Hampshire crowd,
declaring he wanted to make it
“as clear as possible as to why I
am endorsing Hillary Clinton.”
He congratulated her for secur-
ing enough delegates to win the
Democratic nomination and
vowed to do everything he could
to help her defeat Republican
candidate Donald Tmmp.
“This campaign is not really
about Hillary Clinton, or Don-
ald Tmmp or Bemie Sanders, or
any other candidate who sought
the presidency. This campaign is
about the needs of the American
people and addressing the very
serious crises that we face,”
Sanders said.
He added: “And there is no
doubt in my mind that, as we
head into November, Hillary
Clinton is far and away the best
candidate to do that.”
As Sanders delivered the en-
dorsement just two weeks shy of
the Democratic National Con-
vention in Philadelphia, Clinton
offered a huge smile, embracing
him as they raised their arms in
unity. The former secretary of
state said the final four months
of the campaign would be
“much more enjoyable” working
alongside Sanders and echoed
her campaign slogan, ‘We are
stronger together.”
During much of her remarks,
Clinton embraced many of
Sanders’ causes, vowing to op-
pose trade deals like the Trans-
pacific Partnership, fight to raise
the federal minimum wage
adopting Sanders’ tone, she
called it a “starvation wage” —
and overhaul the campaign fi-
nance system.
“These aren’t just my fights.
These are Bemie’s fights. These

said.
adults ages 18 to 30 found that
Clinton was struggling to make
inroads among young Ameri-
cans who overwhelmingly sup-
ported Sanders. The poll found a
majority of the nation’s younger
blacks and Asian-Americans
have a favorable impression of
Clinton, but the presumptive
Democratic nominee struggles
with whites and Hispanics.
The Vermont senator saw his
longshot bid for the White
House quickly catch fire in 2015
at large-scale rallies where he
denounced income inequality,
the influence of Wall Street and
the role of big money in politics
— all part of a system he de-
scribed as “rigged.”
Sanders was powered by an
impressive online fundraising
machine that generated more
than $200 million and threat-
ened Clinton’s once overwhelm-
ing lead in the Democratic pri-
maries with the help of college
students, independents and
white voters drawn to his anti-
establishment message.
In his remarks, Sanders
warned that Trump was a divi-
sive figure who would create fur-
ther splintering.
“In these stressful times for
our country, this election must
be about bringing our people to-
gether, not dividing us up,”
Sanders said.
high school sought to project
Democratic unity before Repub-
licans formally nominate Trump
next week in Cleveland but
some Sanders’ supporters in the
crowd did not appear to be ready
to move on.
Chants of “Bemie” broke out
in the gymnasium while open-
ing speakers addressed the
crowd, prompting Clinton’s
faithful to chant, “unity.” When
Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, a Clinton
supporter, told the audience,
‘We need to elect Hillary,” some
Bemie supporters stood and
shouted, “No,” which was fol-
lowed by chants of “Hillary” in
the crowd.
“It’s like he’s giving up if he
endorses her,” said Steve Rand, a
hardware store owner from
Plymouth, New Hampshire, be-
fore the two candidates took the
stage. He added: “She stands for
everything that I am against.
But James LePage, a 25-
year-old teacher from Denver
who attended the rally, said he
felt Clinton was “genuine” in her
remarks.
“I heard a lot of Bemie in her
voice, which I wasn’t willing to
listen to before,” LePage said.
Recent polls have shown that
many Sanders voters plan to
back Clinton but have reserva-
tions about her honesty.

Sanders has vowed to contin-
ue on until the convention and
even though he endorsed Clin-
ton he is still an active candidate,
his campaign said after the joint
appearance. Spokesman Mi-
chael Briggs said Sanders still
supports holding a roll call vote
at the convention to determine
the nomination.
Democrats have coalesced
around Clinton’s candidacy
since she defeated Sanders in
primaries last month in Califor-
nia and five other states, helped
along by endorsements from
President Barack Obama, Vice
President Joe Biden and others.
In a high-profile rally last
month, Clinton was embraced
by Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth
Warren, a liberal stalwart popu-
lar with Sanders’ followers.
Sanders has spent the past
month seeking to influence the
party’s platform for the Philadel-
phia convention and promote
electoral reforms including al-
lowing independents to partici-
pate in future primaries. He
called the platform “the most
progressive” in history and
hailed steps to create a $15 an
hour minimum wage, prevent
Wall Street malfeasance and ad-
dress climate change.
