Cindy McCain, wife of late Republican Senator John McCain, is endorsing Joe Biden for president.

@CindyMcCain joins us with more on what led her to make her decision.

"What I want from my country is the same thing everybody wants: I want a president who has my back, a president that will respect our troops, and a president that's willing to listen and talk to both sides." — @cindymccain on endorsing @JoeBiden

"I will always be a Republican. I'm not changing my registration or anything like that. But right now, I believe that the person in the race that's the best one that represents me is Joe Biden." — @cindymccain

"I hope [women] will maybe take a different look and take a harder look at the race and perhaps step over the line the way I did. It's not about a party or a particular system... Our country is in such crisis right now. We need a strong person at the helm." — @cindymccain

.@cindymccain's message to Republicans: "Come with me. Let's vote for Joe Biden. Our country needs a new beginning. We need someone with character, integrity, and empathy, as well. And so I hope you will join me in voting for a man I think would be a marvelous president."
