In the run up to the Democratic nomination for Presidency former President Bill Clinton had severely criticised obama on many occasions. Now after his wife is out of the race Bill Clinotn has made up with Obama. Now his phone call to Obama has ended chill. Clinton had earlier announced his suport to Obama as well.

White House hopeful Barack Obama and Bill Clinton have had their first talks since Hillary Clinton pulled out of the race to be the US Democratic candidate.
An Obama spokesman said the two had had a "terrific" conversation during a 20-minute telephone call.
A spokesman for the ex-president, who strongly criticised his wife's rival during the primaries, said he was keen to campaign for Mr Obama.
Mrs Clinton and Mr Obama held a joint rally on Friday.
Mr Clinton, who was in Europe and so missed the symbolic rally in the town of Unity, New Hampshire, the first since the fierce primary contest ended.
He had earlier that week issued a short statement endorsing Mr Obama's campaign.
During the primary battle he was often his wife's most fervent campaigner and one of the most outspoken Democratic critics of Mr Obama.
Mr Obama will face Republican John McCain in November's US presidential election.
Patriotism
Obama spokesman Bill Burton said the senator for Illinois had telephoned Mr Clinton on Monday morning and was honoured to have his support.
