來自美國伊利諾斯州的奧巴馬是參議院的候選人。自1928年以來，他是第二位既不是地方長官又不是國會議員的政黨發言人。

"And it is you, the young and fearless at heart, the most diverse and educated generation in our history, who the nation is waiting to follow."

奧巴馬談及那場引起塞爾瑪遊行的騷亂。“在這個國家的每一個地方，凡事都要邁出第一步、踏入新領域、克服前行中的阻礙，”他說道。“勇敢無畏的年輕人，你們是歷史上最具多樣化、受教育程度最高的一代。我們的國家正等待着你們來爲之奮鬥。”

The 2016 DNC convention speech

2016年民主黨全國代表大會演說

奧巴馬錶示，與他第一次就職的時候相比，他對這個國家的未來持更加樂觀的態度。在某種程度上，他把這歸功於他的擁護者，同時，他還請他們像一直支持他那樣“支持”希拉里·克林頓。

He directly attacked Donald Trump, questioning his business record and his integrity.
