Magic Johnson Endorses Clinton Bid

Basketball star Earvin (Magic) Johnson has endorsed Democratic presidential candidate Bill Clinton and implored blacks to vote in November’s election.

“We have to make sure that we understand that we can’t take four more years of the Bush Administration,” Johnson said on NBC’s “Sunday Today.”

Johnson resigned Friday from the National Commission on AIDS and accused the Administration of ignoring the panel’s work.

Johnson, 33, left professional basketball in November after revealing he had contracted HIV, the virus that causes AIDS.
