WASHINGTON — President Obama, after months of sitting on the sidelines of the rancorous contest to succeed him, is now ready to aggressively campaign for Hillary Clinton, starting with a formal endorsement of her candidacy as early as this week.

The White House is in active conversations with Mrs. Clinton’s campaign about how and where the president would be useful to her, according to senior aides to Mr. Obama.

Advisers say that the president, who sees a Democratic successor as critical to his legacy, is impatient to begin campaigning. They say he is taking nothing for granted.

“I want us to run scared the whole time,” Mr. Obama told a group of donors on Friday night in Miami.

It has been decades since a second-term president enjoyed the popularity to make him a potent force on the campaign trail and also an invitation from the candidate running to succeed him to be a major presence there.

4. Yes!

I know Hillary will be a great president , but I am going to miss Obama and his family. Such a classy family.

Too bad he won't consider a SCOTUS appointment. Maybe after we flip the Senate he'll change his mind.

I do realize the population of Conservatives would be cut in half by all the heads exploding..but I personally think it would be worth it.

9. She's going to have one sitting and at least one former president campaigning for her.

Not sure what Jimmy Carter will do; but, at his age, he deserves a break. He's one of my favorites, by the way.
