Originally, they were rivals in the 2008 campaign for the Democratic nomination for president. But once Obama won the nomination, they put their differences aside.

Yes, but it has not happened yet in the US. Hillary Clinton is currently the leading candidate for the Democratic nomination in 2016, but she may be too old to run.
Robert "Bobby" Kennedy was shot by Sirhan Sirhan as a sitting Senator while trying to secure the Democratic nomination for President.
Hilary Clinton tried for the Democratic nomination in 2008. She came close to winning but lost out at the end.
Lyndon Johnson won 486 in 1964 which was the highest total ever for a Democrat. (Republican , Ronald Reagan, got 525 in 1984, despite the fact that 3 "automatic" votes from DC were added to the Democratic total.)
There has not yet been a female US president ! All US presidents so far have been male. Senator Hillary Clinton made a pretty strong run for the nomination in 2008 . Each major party has run a woman for vice-president but neither won.
Robert Francis "Bobby" Kennedy (November 20, 1925 - June 6, 1968) was running for the Democratic presidential nomination when he was gunned down. He was the attorney-general for his brother, Jack Kennedy, but was a US senator from New York at the time of his death.
