House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi endorsed Hillary Clinton for president this morning on "Good Morning America" before her home state's primary today.

"I'm a voter in California and I have voted for Hillary Clinton for president of the United States and proud to endorse her for that position," the Democratic superdelegate said.

Pelosi, who did not formally endorse in the 2008 Democratic primary, has praised Sen. Bernie Sanders' primary campaign and the excitement the Vermont senator has generated among younger voters.

In an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos today, Pelosi said she believes Sanders will be a constructive force in 2016 before the Democratic convention in Philadelphia.

Thanks, Nancy!!! I have so much respect and admiration for Nancy. I have always held her up as a role model for my girls. She sacrificed her majority to bring us health care and there is not a Republican living that would have done that. She has saved thousands perhaps millions of lives. I am so proud of my party...and that is why when the Bernie people whine and cry...I think...during some of the worst opposition ever endured by any party and by any president, the Democrats saved the economy and gave us health care. They stood proud for LGBT rights and my daughter can marry the love of her life someday...We have been waiting 100 years to give the American people health care. Easy for Bernie to say it is not good enough but hard for him to do anything but talk...I think we will move towards single payer in the end. However, Bernie has no right to sneer at the accomplishments of those that through very difficult circumstances came through for us.
