Campaigning in Virginia on Saturday, former President Bill Clinton praised President Obama for bringing the country together and promoting diversity as commander in chief.

“One of the things the decider-in-chief has to do is decide whether he’s going to bring this country together across all its diversity or let it drift apart,” Clinton said. “Look at how much stronger the American military is because it is less racist, less sexist and less homophobic and we’re just looking for people who can do the job.”
