PHILADELPHIA, Nov 8, (APP/AFP) – Barack Obama on Monday harnessed history and all of his vaunted oratorical skill in a final campaign push to see Hillary Clinton elected the first woman president of the United States. Obama spent the day campaigning for his first secretary of state, jetting from Michigan to New Hampshire to Pennsylvania. But his last speech before electors cast their ballots to replace him — before tens of thousands of Democrats in Philadelphia — indeed felt like a rousing final farewell. “You gave me a chance” he told the diverse crowd gathered on a chilly night in the City of Brotherly Love. “A skinny guy with a funny name.” “You bet on me,” he said, “I’ve always had the better odds, because I’ve always bet on you.”
