i'm reminded of the 2012 democratic national convention, when bill clinton got up to speak on behalf of what president obama, vice president biden and the administration had accomplished in moving the country out of the economic downturn and getting us back on track to move forward. and what was so powerful about that, one, is bill clinton, as you remember, an amazing communicator, he was able to say things about president obama and vice president biden that quite frankly don't sound as good coming from one of them, instead of i did, i did, you have this great revered messenger talking about what they did, and what the impact was. and that really was a big moment in the campaign. it crystallized what had been done and i think tonight what you're going to see, and it sounds like content we'll probably see through election day, two really good communicators, bill clinton and barack obama both talking about what joe biden has been able to do, lifting up and out what he's accomplished in a way that really starts to drive it in for people. i know it sounds subtle, but boy, i remember dist

susan page, it's interesting to see bill clinton in this group tonight. bill clinton, for a couple of campaign cycles, was not out on the trail, not by his choice but by the choice of the presidential nominees. specifically, al gore in 2000 and even what you saw in 2008 and 2015 and '16 with hillary clinton. she wanted to be her own person. there was always the overhanging of questions about her marriage. >> yeah. absolutely. what a tableau tonight. look at the contrast with donald trump. george w. bush has not endorsed donald trump. his own vice president, mike pence, hasn't endorsed donald trump. you see a big -- a contrast there, including bill clinton who hasn't been as featured a player in the last couple of elections. you get the sense, i think, of joe biden hitting his stride here on campaign cash, on campaign events. he has got to eight battleground states since super tuesday. after a rough start, he is beginning to find traction here. >> susan, you may recall this. i was at the constitution center in 2004 when john kerry was running. bill clinton

bill clinton was 50 when he ran against george bush at 63. what was interesting as part of the reporting we've done ahead of this event, you talk to the dole campaign, the mccain campaign. they say, we were frustrating that age was an issue, but bob dole didn't lose because of his age. he lost because of the economy. the clinton campaign put newt gingrich around his neck. the argument from barack obama was so powerful at a time when george w. bush had low approval ratings. it's how to balance looking to the past and the fond memories i'm sure these three men will share, but also how to look to the future. president biden will lay out his vision of the future. >> the difference on that age issue this time, is he's running against a 77-year-old who truly has trouble stringing thoughts together. >> the biden campaign points outlook who's been out on the road. i was in north carolina with him the other day. he's been to every battleground state and then sum. in that same time, donald trump has only held one public campaign event. >> this is a sig
