Obama unleashes the fiery reproach of Trump's government at the rally
in a final sprint to the finish line, former president Barack Obama He issued a fiery rebuke from the Trump government, taking the fight to South Florida to energize an already lively democratic base and present a different vision for the country.
The Democratic candidates are on the ballot in two of the most important races of this cycle in Florida Purple: a fundamental state for their party's hopes of securing Senate control and making raids at the state level, after the President Donald Trump Led to the state by slim margin in presidential 2016 choice.
In recent weeks, the former president has increased his presence in the campaign, looking for a list of candidates across the country, and on Friday he joined the Democratic gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum, Senate Bill Nelson and several state candidates in Miami.
Miami-Dade County, a Democratic stronghold, preferred Hillary Clinton in 2016 over Donald Trump for more than 30 points.

Andrew Gillum, Democratic nominee for governor of Florida, former President Barack Obama and US Senator Bill Nelson join during a campaign rally in Miami at Ice Palace Films Studios, on November 2, 2018.
In stark contrast to his successor, the message of the former president for the voters it has been of hope while the party looks for to recover the control of the Congress.

When words cease to mean something, when the truth does not matter, when people can simply lie with abandon, democracy can not work.
Without calling the current president by his name, Obama rebuked the Trump government's offensive against asylum seekers, particularly Trump's rhetoric about the immigrant convoy headed for the United States border.
"Now, in 2018, they're telling you that the existential threat to the United States is a group of poor refugees who are a thousand miles away," Obama said at a Miami rally for Gillum and Nelson.

Florida Republican Gov. candidate Ron DeSantis shakes hands with President Donald Trump on July 31, 2018, during a rally in Tampa, Florida.
"They are even taking our brave troops from their families by a political trick on the border. And the men and women of our army deserve something better than that. So there is only one constant fear of being distracted from the record. "
"I know there are conservatives who are compassionate and should think that there is nothing compassionate about ripping immigrant children from the arms of their mothers on the border," Obama said.
The former president also criticized his successor for undermining the democratic process after Trump announced a plan to end citizenship by birth of children born to non-citizens.
"I guess they recognize that a president can not decide who is a US citizen and who is not. This is not how the Constitution of the United States works. This is not how the Bill of Rights works. This is not how our democracy works. "
Just four days before Americans went to the polls, and with many worried about health care, Obama persecuted Republicans who, he said, have not spent time campaigning for Republican Party tax cuts that approved earlier this year. existing conditions, despite their countless efforts to repeal the Affordable Care Act.
"I have to make this point because at this moment, the Republicans are all, look, the economy is very good." Where do you think it started? ", He posed. "When did that start?"
"If the Republicans thought their tax cuts for the billionaires were popular, they would be campaigning to do it, you do not hear anything from them," he said. "This was his main act in Congress. They have not mentioned it in a single advertisement.
"In fact, right at the time of the elections, suddenly, Republicans say they will protect their pre-existing conditions when they have literally been doing the opposite," Obama said. "That is a kind of impudence."
"Florida, we can not allow Rick Scott to become the deciding vote for his protections of pre-existing conditions," he added.
At the beginning of his comments, a meddler began shouting at the former president, but was quickly overwhelmed by the audience that began to sing "Obama."
"This is what I hope is to have some people who bother me to get back into my state of mind," Obama said jokingly in response to the shouting. "I like that".
Obama tried to portray a different crowd from the United States to Miami, and told the audience that Tuesday's midterm elections "could be the most important elections of our lives."
"The United States is at a crossroads," he said. "The medical care of millions is on the ballot. Making sure that working families receive fair treatment is on the ballot. But perhaps most of the characters in our country are on the ballot. "
That vision is one that, according to him, the democrats must "defend with clarity, patriotism and purpose".
"The values that bind us to their fellow citizens matter who we are, no matter how we look, that's what Americans do," he said. "That's what America is, that's what Andrew Gillum believes, that's what Bill Nelson believes, that's what you believe in. A better vision of America."
"That's where I'm hopeful, Florida." I'm hoping we'll cut the lies, block the noise and remember who we are and who we are called to be. "
By underlining what is at stake in the election, Obama shouted the lies that were spilled from, as he said, "the highest levels of government."
"When words stop meaning, when the truth does not matter, when people can lie with abandon, democracy can not work."
"And that is what is happening at the highest levels," he continued. "The only verification of that behavior is you, the only control over that behavior is you and your vote, and on Tuesday you can vote for a decent policy."
Obama has been on the path to choosing this election as more important than any other contest in recent history, even in years that included his own name on the ballot, sending a clear message to the Democrats: get out of the vote. He did it again on Friday.
In a year with unprecedented participation and enthusiasm in a midterm election, Democrats hope to take advantage of key opportunities in the South.
"You get some souls to the polls," he urged. "Let's make history happen here in Florida, let's go to work, let's vote."
Gillum, the mayor of Tallahassee, is competing in one of this year's most-watched races against former Republican Party representative Ron DeSantis, an opponent backed by Trump and occasionally controversial. He would be the first African-American governor of Florida if elected in November.
Gillum, who won Obama's endorsement last month and joined by former vice president Joe Biden last week, is part of a progressive class of candidates who dominate the Democratic ticket in this cycle.
More aligned with Vermont independent Senator Bernie Sanders and Liberal Insurgent Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, the Mayor of Tallahassee appeared on the scene in the last weeks leading up to his first victory.

Sen. Bill Nelson listens during a panel discussion with educational leaders from South Florida at the United Teachers of Dade headquarters in Miami, August 6, 2018.
Florida voters were very upset in August after sending Gillum to the general ballot on the establishment candidate Gwen Graham, a member of a Florida political dynasty. His father, Bob Graham, was governor of the state and senator of the United States.
Gillum captured 75 percent of the youth vote in elementary, according to NextGen America, although that coalition of voters historically does not participate in midterm elections.
The governor's contentious career has highlighted a number of cultural problems, including gun control and race. Gillum and DeSantis are competing for the governor's mansion after the shooting at Parkland, where 17 students and teachers were shot dead, prompting a national youth movement, led by survivors of Marjory Stoneman Douglas High School.
This closed battle between Gillum and DeSantis has heated up at times, especially in the race. The day after Gillum won the August primary party nomination, DeSantis was criticized for telling voters during an interview on Fox News that they should not "stack up" by voting for Gillum.
This week, Trump entered the fray to defend his loyal ally by relentlessly criticizing the Democratic candidate on Twitter and at a rally on Wednesday by DeSantis in Fort Myers.
Florida Democratic race gubernatorial candidate Andrew Gillum speaks to his supporters during a campaign rally in Kissimmee, Florida, on October 1, 2018.
Gillum responded to Trump's remarks on Thursday and told CNN: "The president is again trying to use scare tactics and to scare others: this is a race to the bottom, the kind of policy they are used to. I just think so, very underestimating the people of my state. "
For his part, Gillum faced controversy earlier this year about an FBI investigation into government corruption in Tallahassee and the acceptance of a ticket to the Broadway musical "Hamilton" from an undercover FBI agent. Gillum said during a government debate that he is not the direct subject of the investigation.
In spite of that, the ABC News partner FiveThirtyEight predicts that Gillum has a chance of winning three by four. Recent polls showed a very small advantage for Gillum, who has a 49 to 48 percent advantage over DeSantis among likely voters, in a CNN poll on October 21. The race is classified as a quick bet.
Nelson, locked in a closed race with the Republican governor of Florida, Rick Scott, must hold on to his seat to keep the Democrats' path alive to the Senate majority. The holder of three terms is among the 10 Democratic senators who defend seats in this cycle in a state that Trump won two years ago. Nelson has a 49 to 47 percent advantage over Scott among likely voters, according to the CNN poll.
