Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton held a press gaggle on the tarmac outside of her campaign plane before taking off Monday for a five-city final campaign push.
One reporter asked Clinton if America finally understands her and is ready to accept her as its president.
"It seems to me over time you've been ahead of your time. Often times misunderstood. You have encountered a lot of prejudice. Do you think that today America understands you and is ready to accept you?" the reporter asked.
"Well, I think I have some work to do to bring the country together. As I have been saying in these speeches in the last few days, I really do want to be the president for everybody," Clinton said. "People who vote for me, people who vote against me because I think these splits, these divides have been not only been exposed but exacerbated by the campaign on the other side are the ones that we really do have to bring the country together."
NBC's Andrea Mitchell jumped in to ask Clinton if she really could do that. Clinton firmly answered yes.
"I love this country and I believe in our people," Clinton said.
Clinton laughed before her advance team pushed her and the traveling press pool to board the campaign plane.
