The presidential campaign of Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders on Thursday confirmed a second weekend campaign appearance in San Diego County.

CHULA VISTA (CBS 8/CNS) - Former President Bill Clinton Saturday urged San Diego County voters to support his wife, Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton, in the California primary next month.



''We need you to support Hillary on June the seventh. She needs to go into that convention with the wind at her back,'' Bill Clinton said.



''We need to bring everybody together and go out there with the wind at our backs, with confidence in the future of this country,'' he said. ''If we have the right leader, the best change maker I have ever known, you can make it happen in California on June the seventh.''

As Clinton thanked the people for supporting Hillary and coming out, he reminded them of what happened to him when he ran.

"When I ran for President, California and New Jersey were the last states to vote because of our system of proportional representation, I didn't have the delegates I needed to win until California and New Jersey voted for me," Clinton said.

The nation's 42nd president spoke to a crowd of hundreds of supporters packed into the gymnasium at Bonita Vista High School. Their enthusiasm did not seem to wane despite his being about an hour late to the event. An overflow crowd was led to an area outside the gym.



''There's only one person with a record of getting things done as first lady, as a senator, as secretary of state, with Republicans in Congress,'' Clinton said to a cheering audience.



''And only one person who has a remote chance to both keep us safe in a dangerous world and make good things happen and give us the space we need to grow and lead the world out of this mess we're in and all these crazy conflicts that are interfering with you living your future,'' he said.



Clinton, who stopped to talk to the overflow crowd before leaving, was scheduled to attend a private fundraiser later in Rancho Santa Fe.



Hillary Clinton's campaign today announced that the candidate will be making a long campaign swing through California next week beginning Monday in the Los Angeles area, followed by stops in Orange County, Salinas and San Jose on Wednesday and Thursday.



Clinton's opponent for the Democratic nomination, Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, was scheduled to speak at a rally in National City Saturday night.

The former first lady is due in California next week.
