Not exactly a glowing endorsement. 

Bill Clinton to speak at Democratic convention
     
(CNN) -- Former President Clinton will speak at the Democratic National Convention, three sources said Thursday.

Clinton will speak August 27, the night of the vice presidential nominee's speech, in Denver, Colorado, the sources said.

Clinton and presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Sen. Barack Obama spoke Thursday, sources said.

The convention is set for August 25-28.

Clinton has said he would support Obama's run for the presidency. However, in a recent interview with ABC News, when Clinton was asked whether Obama was "completely qualified," the former president said: "You could argue that nobody is ever ready to be president. I mean, I certainly learned a lot about the job in the first year."

When pressed, Clinton said: "The Constitution sets qualifications for the president. And then the people decide who they think would be the better president. I think we have two choices. I think he should win, and I think he will win."
