Obama and Clinton to have lunch
Sep 8, 11:57Senator Barack Obama and former president Bill Clinton are scheduled to have a private lunch with each other on September 11th. Clinton invited the Democrat candidate after realizing that Obama would be in New York on Thursday for a joint appearance with his opponent, John McCain. The two candidates will be speaking about the September 11th attacks as the attacks are remembered on the 7th anniversary.
Democrats are hoping that the lunch shows another step towards unity between the Obama and Clinton camps. Both sides have already stated that they stand together, but many of Hilary Clinton’s supporters are still reluctant on following the Illinois Senator. Both Clintons spoke at the Democratic National Convention where they told voters that Obama was the real deal.
The Clintons continue to support Obama and along with this lunch they also have a few scheduled campaigning events coming up including an appearance by Hilary in Florida on Monday.
