WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton suspended her historic campaign for the presidency on Saturday, declaring her full support for Barack Obama.
"I endorse him and throw my full support behind him," Clinton said.
Clinton urged her supporters to rally behind her ex-rival, a show of support Democrats hope will help heal a party fractured by a bitter battle for the presidential nomination. As the former first lady ended her quest to become the first female U.S. president, her husband, former President Bill Clinton, her daughter and mother were by her side. Obama secured the 2,118 delegates needed to clinch the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday after primaries in South Dakota and Montana. He planned to spend the weekend at his home in Chicago. "I have said throughout the campaign that I would strongly support Senator Obama if he were the Democratic Party's nominee and I intend to deliver on that promise," Clinton told supporters in an online message late this week.

I am so happy to be alive and breathing and fully conscious on the day a woman is standing at the podium, with thousands of people standing around her, cheering, yelling, holding up signs, crying tears of joy and relief, women, feeling a sense of hope, feeling a sense of instant overwhelming support...
This is a wonderful feeling. Being able to look back in the history books that show the harsh brutality of my ancestors, being beat and broken for hundreds of years....now, one of our own is sitting at home, or in his office, watching a white woman, hand over her full support, pleading for her supporters to back him in his fight for office....the times are changing..and he sees it, she knows it....CHANGE WE CAN SEE
Hillary Clinton has my respect
Barrack Obama has my vote.

To hear Hillary Clinton say she supports Barack Obama, means...so much...to people all over the world....It means so much, to everyone effected by generations of discrimination, women, african americans, black men, white women. Affirmative Action, Racism.....
Its time for a change.
