Obama comments on presidential election and transition of power

President Obama took the opportunity during his comments on the election to remind Americans that the "sun will rise tomorrow" and the office of President and Vice President is bigger than anyone. President Obama insisted that despite differences, the transition of power will be professional and smooth, so that the new President may "hit the ground running."

He also reminded Americans that everyone needs to "root for Trump's success as Americans" and be together in this time of transition.
