Clinton praised her former rival as the best choice to lead the nation as it faces an economic crisis and war.

“I think it is safe to say we have not seen more troubles at one time since World War Two,” she said. “Probably no president will inherit more challenges that President Obama will, since Harry Truman had to take over from Franklin Roosevelt.”

The rally was held at same spot where Obama last visited the state two years ago to stump for Mike Beebe’s gubernatorial campaign. Beebe, who was elected in 2006, went on to endorse Clinton’s campaign but backed Obama after Clinton dropped out of the race.

Clinton was joined at the rally by Beebe and other top Democrats in the state, including Wesley Clark, the retired Army general who ran unsuccessfully for the party’s Democratic presidential nomination in 2004.
