Campaigning in the battle ground State of Florida, Obama also slammed Donald Trump, the Republican presidential nominee, for his rhetoric and his divisive policies.
"We cannot teach our children to treat women as objects. We want to teach our kids to treat everybody as full and equal citizens capable of doing anything. We can't teach our kids to vilify immigrants, or people with disabilities, or Americans who practice a different faith.
"We shouldn't let our kids think that politics is about pitching a new hotel, or a new golf course, or a TV contract. It's about working on behalf of the common good and promoting opportunity and justice. That's what Hillary believes," he said amidst applause.
"That's why she has to win this election... She believes, like I believe, that we can summon what's best in each of us; that we can make this country better for all of us. She believes that, together, we can do big things that we could never do on our own," he said making a strong argument for Clinton.
The FBI decision has created a political storm.
Obama said he would continue to campaign for Clinton over the next 11 days.
