NASHUA, NH (AP) – Bill Clinton is offering a deeply personal endorsement of his wife’s campaign, telling voters that Hillary Clinton’s plans offer the best chance for the country to have economic prosperity and a secure future.

In a wide-ranging address that took voters through Hillary Clinton’s work as a young lawyer in Arkansas, ways to combat heroin addiction, the political achievements of President Barack Obama and the failings of America’s fourteenth president, Franklin Pierce, Bill Clinton argued that the Democratic front-runner offers the best plan to restore “broadly shared prosperity.”

The event marked the former president’s debut solo appearance for his wife’s campaign, part of a largely strategy to deploy Clinton in a more public way in the run-up to the first round of primary voting next month.
