"I don't think...."
President Obama has officially endorsed Hillary Clinton for president saying, "I don't think there's ever been someone so qualified to hold this office." Hmmm. There was one man who had served for years in the Virginia House of Burgesses, led the drafting of the Fairfax Resolves, served as a delegate to the First Continental Congress, served as Commander-in-Chief of the Continental Army, and presided over the Constitutional Convention, but I guess he still wasn't as qualified as Hillary. There was another man who had written the Declaration of Independence, served as Governor of Virginia, served as ambassador to France, served as Secretary of State, and served as Vice President of the United States, but I guess he still wasn't as qualified as Hillary. Hmmm.
