Beautiful video. Obama is gonna be SUCH an asset to Clinton. Remember two years ago when Clinton sort of tried to distance herself from Obama? Well, good thing that she changed her mind about that strategy!

If the Clinton campaign knows what they are doing, they are gonna run a TON of these positive Hillary commercials featuring Obama. It is high time that they focus on branding Clinton as the highly intelligent and competent leader that she is.

Obama’s Not Exactly An Asset To Candidates in 2016

President Obama may be garnering unusually high approval ratings lately, but voters are closely divided as to whether his support would help or hurt candidates running in their state and are less likely to vote for a congressional candidate who has supported his agenda. (To see survey question wording, click here.)
Yeah, I don't believe this for a second. Obama is a very powerful speaker, whether giving a formal speech, or giving an endorsement in video form.

Yeah, I'm not going to believe Rasmussen polls that say Americans don't care about Trump University or that Obama won't be an asset on the trail.

That you dislike the results of a poll does not indicate that the poll is wrong or inaccurate. Sometimes (believe it or not), your opinion will not align with the opinion of the majority.

It is not a question that people can be easily polled on. Admitting that you are influenced by the president's endorsement (or anybody else's for that matter) is sort of admitting that you are not capable of making your own decisions. Obama campaigning for Clinton WILL make a difference with democrats and dem-leaning independents. I don't expect it to make a difference for republicans.
