Clinton on Wednesday took the crowd at the National Democratic Convention through Harris' life story and said he believes that her candidacy represents for the country
Her story is that of an America they all know is possible, he said, referring to the 59-year-old Harris, who is of Indian and African heritage
"In 2024, we gotta pretty clear choice, it seems to me," Clinton said. "Kamala Harris, for the people, and the other guy, who has proved even more than the first go-around that he's about me, myself and I"
"Kamala Harris will work to solve our problems, seize our opportunities, ease our fears, and make sure every single American, however they vote, has a chance to chase their dreams," Clinton, 78, said
Clinton's wife, Hillary Clinton, lost the 2016 election to former President Trump, the current Republican presidential nominee
"Where we weather the storms and earn the benefits together. That's the America Kamala Harris will lead. She's already made her first presidential decision, picking a running mate," Clinton, who served two terms in the White House until January 2001, said
Clinton riffed on the famous "place called Hope" line he gave at the 1992 Democratic convention to encourage Americans to vote the "president of joy," Harris, into the White House
