LIVE BLOG: Obama, Kaine, Biden Make the Case for Hillary Clinton as President

update

The theme for the third day of the Democratic National Convention is "Working Together." Previous speakers included Vice President Joe Biden and Michael Bloomberg.

Obama also works in some kudos for Clinton's vice presidential choice, Tim Kaine.

"Tim Kaine is as good a man, as humble and committed a public servant, as anyone I know. He will be a great vice president, and he’ll make Hillary a better president. Just like my dear friend and brother Joe Biden has made me a better president."

As Obama says, "And then there’s Donald Trump," the crowd boos.

He tells them, don't boo, vote!

The crowd cheers and laughs.

Another comment by Obama -- "Meanwhile, Donald Trump calls our military a disaster" -- draws boos from the delegates.

As Obama speaks, someone in the crowd yells, "Four more years!"
