The clip is from a March appearance on Hardball. Edwards endorsed Obama in February:
“By voting for Senator Obama, we can say it is time to turn away from the divisive partisan politics of the past and work together for a brighter future for our children and our grandchildren. Now more than ever, we need a leader who can inspire us to do better, to be better. Barack Obama is that leader,” said Edwards.
Obama’s response:
“Representative Edwards is a strong advocate for our men and women in uniform and I’m honored to have his support,” Obama said. “Keeping faith with those who serve must always be a core American value and a cornerstone of American patriotism. Whether Democrat, Republican, or independent, we can unite with common purpose around the commitment to our servicemen and women that begins at enlistment and must never end.”
