How great is it to be here in Dallas, Texas, on how great it is to be here with my family, John and Abigail and with Vice President Biden, how wonderful it is to be standing next to him on a stage when it isn't the debate stage.

Adverbs of degree

So I actually, as you all know, announced my campaign for president in the middle of a Minnesota blizzard just so I could impress everyone in Texas on in particular, everyone in Dallas s O.

We did continue through that speech because that's what we do in the Heartland.

We made a little in this campaign in my campaign, go a long way and our homegrown campaign with a tremendous staff that stuck together from the beginning and volunteers every way beat the odds.

And that got me up here right now on this theme.

Most amazing thing was getting to know so many people across the country.

And I know the vice president knows this is, well, the Vietnam who sobbed as he talked about losing his son to mental illness.

The rancher who had voted for Donald Trump.

But after he saw him give a speech in front of that sacred wall with the CIA, stars of those that lost their lives in the line of duty decided he wasn't going to do it again.

Theo, immigrant mom who told me she works two jobs, all for her kids, and through it all, I said to them, and I believe this now standing with the vice president, if you feel tired of the noise and the nonsense and our politics and if you are tired of the extremes, you have a home with me.

And I think you know you have a home with Joe Biden.

So so many people joined us, supported us as we carried forward with this simple but fundamental message, and that it is time for Americans to join hands instead of pointing fingers.

It is time to turn back the division and the hate and the exclusion and the bitterness, and it is time to work together to lift up those who are left out and to bring people with us instead of shoving them away, Theo believe.

And it's the reason I'm up here that we are never going to out.

Divide the divider in chief way must, as Americans dream bigger than that way, have to be better than that.

Because if we spend the next four months dividing our party and going at each other, we will spend the next four years watching Donald Trump tear apart way need Texans.

We need to unite our party and our country and to do it not just with our words but with our actions.

It is upto us, all of us to put our country back together, to heal this country and then to build something even greater.

And that is why today I am ending my campaign and endorsing Joe Biden.

Okay, I have a I have a few other things to say.

Joe Biden has dedicated his life to fighting for people not for the rich and the powerful.

But for the mom, for the farmer, for the dreamer, for the builder, for the veteran he can bring our country together and build that coalition of are fired up Democratic base a swell as independents and moderate Republicans.

Because way do not in our party wanted just eke by a victory.

We want to win Big Thief, as you know, from all the work he has done that he will not just govern with his hat.

He's got a lot of good ideas, but he will also govern with his heart.

You know, here in this big state of Texas that the heart of this country is bigger than the heart of the guy in the White House.

For a president that understands that service is not about self interest, it is about sacrifice.

It is time for a president that represents all of America, including people in the middle of this country.

At a time when we see people in extremes that air trying to drown out people.

And this is what I feel so strongly about.

It is time for a president that will bring decency and dignity back.

I told I told the story of Franklin Delano Roosevelt, that beloved president, and when he died, they put his body on a train that went from Georgia to Washington, D.

And the story is that people spontaneously stood along those train tracks to show their respect.

And a reporter came upon a guy regular Guy just had his hat in his hand and he was sobbing.

And the reporters said to him, Sir, do you mind me asking, Did you know President Roosevelt?

And the guy says, No, I didn't know the president, but he knew me is exactly what is missing right now in the White House way have a president that has no empathy that cannot put himself in the shoes of the people of this country.

Well, guess who could do that, Theo, if you if you out there are trying to figure out how you stretch your paycheck to pay for your rent or your mortgage or someone in your family is you know, Joe knows you and he will fight for you.

Care for your parents and the child Care are the college for your kids?

And if you are trying to figure out home, I'm gonna fill that prescription for insulin or some other prescription drug or fill my refrigerator.

So I cannot think of a better way to end my campaign than joining Hiss America.

You gave an opportunity to the granddaughter of an iron are minor to the daughter of a teacher and a newspaper man, you gave me Minnesota the opportunity to be the first woman elected to the U.

You gave me this incredible year to be a candidate for president of the United States because you have faith in what we can achieve together.

It is because of your undying belief that for all of us, the best is yet to come.

So before I turn it over our next president, I want to remind you of something really practical tomorrow.

There are 14 Super Tuesday states, including my home state of Minnesota.

I want all of you to do is vote for Joe Decency boat for dignity.

That is what he will bring to the White House.
