US President Barack Obama has appealed to Americans to deliver a big win to Hillary Clinton and a crushing defeat to Donald Trump in the November 8 general elections, saying the country cannot have a reality TV show in the Oval Office.
Democratic presidential nominee Clinton, 68, is eminently qualified, really well-prepared, has the temperament, the work ethic, the policy chops to be an outstanding president as compared to Trump, 70, Obama said at a reception in California.
“And then there is the other guy (Trump). And I’m not going to belabor why this other guy is not fit to hold this office, because every time he talks you get more proof that that is not the guy that you want as President of the US,” Obama said.
He said the First Lady, Michelle is also campaigning this time because she believes that this is an important election for the country.
“She understands, as I understand, that some more fundamental values are at stake in this election. It has to do with our basic standards of decency — how do we treat people,” Obama said.
