US 2016 Presidential Election: Obama Warns Fate of World at Stake
Local Editor
US President Barack Obama urged Democrats of all ethnic backgrounds to get out and vote for Hillary Clinton, warning that the fate of the US republic - and the world - is at stake.
Speaking at a rally in North Carolina, Obama said her Republican opponent Donald Trump was a threat to hard-earned civil rights.
For his part, Trump said Obama should stop campaigning for Clinton and focus on running the country.
"The bottom line is, no-one wants four more years of Obama," he told supporters in Pensacola, Florida.
He said Clinton had become "unhinged" in recent days.
Americans will vote for the candidate they want to see in the White House next Tuesday, with recent polls showing the race tightening between Clinton and Trump.
"The fate of the republic rests on your shoulders," Obama told supporters in the key battleground state of North Carolina.
"The fate of the world is teetering and you, North Carolina, are going to have to make sure that we push it in the right direction.
"I am not on the ballot, but I tell you what - fairness is on the ballot; decency is on the ballot; justice is on the ballot; progress is on the ballot; our democracy is on the ballot."
Meanwhile, the FBI is investigating new emails that may be linked to its probe into Clinton's private email server.
The agency's director, James Comey, faced a fierce backlash for announcing the move just 11 days before the presidential election.
Earlier, Obama implicitly criticized him over the new inquiry into Clinton's email use.
In an interview with website NowThisNews, published on Wednesday, Obama said US investigations should not operate on the basis of "innuendo" or "incomplete information".
Obama's remarks were his first public comments since Comey's announcement on Friday that the FBI had discovered a new batch of emails that might or might not be relevant to an earlier, closed investigation into Clinton's handling of classified information.
