Barack Obama says he'd be happy to have Bill Clinton campaigning on his behalf now that he's the presumptive nominee, even though the former president was considered at times to be a liability for his wife's campaign.
"I think Bill Clinton is an enormous talent, and I would welcome him campaigning for me," Obama told reporters on his campaign plane Thursday.
Asked if he thinks he can mend fences with Bill Clinton, Obama said: "Yes, yes."
excerpt 2:"The former president angered and befuddled Democrats on the campaign trail by making comments they felt were insensitive. He equated Obama's victory in the January South Carolina primary to Jesse Jackson's win in the state 20 years, and he also told a Philadelphia radio station that he believed Obama "played the race card on me" during the incident.
But several Clinton supporters are now urging Obama to sign on Hillary Clinton as his running mate and use the Clinton team as a campaign asset."
