PRESIDENT OBAMA DEFINED THE ELECTION

++"Yes ,We can", not "He will."

++To much to get into but Obama woven several of his speeches together to give a tremendous boost to The Hillary Clinton campaign.

++He got into the idea of self governance and touched on all the patriotic themes that resonate in our civil religion. He addressed the issue not "taking America back" by sharing the values of his Kansas-grandparents shared with him and noted they  transcended borders and were the same values of immigrants, too.

++He pointed out that our military was all hues and religions and including men proud of their husbands.

++He defined the issue not the election as who are we as a people.  And he rallied the Democratic party to vote straight down the line even for small office-holders.

++He basically cooped old Republican themes and melded them into a progressive agenda. It is this subtlety I hope Hillary Clinton manages to maintain.

++At the end of the day, Joe Biden and President Obama wrecked trump's day, invoking American values against his fear mongering and hate.
