Michelle Obama remains extremely popular as Clinton’s premier surrogate, especially in speaking out against Donald Trump after a leaked 2005 video showed him making lewd remarks and bragging about groping women.

But their joint-campaign was specially for other reasons too, as Obama pointed out herself: a sitting first lady had never been on the campaign trail in such a way, especially campaigning for a former first lady who was once a rival.

“If people wonder: Yes, Hillary Clinton is my friend,” Obama said.

“I wish I didn’t have to say this, but indeed dignity and respect for women and girls is also on the ballot this election,” Clinton said. “And I want to thank our first lady for her eloquent, powerful defense of that basic value.”

Indeed both ladies were there to show exactly what dignity and respect for women looks like.
