The Democratic Party has held the most extensive and fiercely contested primaries and caucuses in memory.

Participation has broken records. Traffic to political web sites and ratings for news channels are higher than ever. Millions have voted.

The people have spoken.

We are saying Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama.

Now it is time to join forces and set our sights on victory in November.

Divisions between Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama distract from that goal.

We as Democrats must come together to win in November.

Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama respect each other.

Rank and file Democrats and Independents respect both candidates.

It is time to fight the common enemy, not each other.

It is time to combine forces and march forward.

It is time for Unity. It is time for Victory.
