The singer headlined the event attended by 33,000 in Philadelphia, along with Barack and Michelle Obama, Bon Jovi, and Hillary's husband Bill and daughter Chelsea
THE Boss made sure America knew who he thought should be the next boss of the US on Monday when Bruce Springsteen joined Hillary Clinton on stage for her final rally in the race for the White House.
The singer played to a crowd of 33,000 people and told spoke out against Donald Trump, telling the gathering: "This is a man whose vision is limited to little beyond himself.
He then added the billionaire had a "profound lack of decency that would allow him to" put "his own ego" first.
Although he didn't name the billionaire, he continued the Republican candidate, would "damage our long cherished and admired system" and referred to the former reality star's "epic failure."
Speaking warmly of Clinton he said: "The choice tomorrow couldn’t be any clearer.
"Hillary’s candidacy is based on intelligence, experience ... and actual vision of an America where everyone counts – men and women, white and black, Hispanic and native."
Bill and Chelsea opened the night after Springsteen, with Chelsea saying it had been the greatest honour to speak on the campaign trail for her mum.
Hillary's husband Bill, in what could have been seen as a side at Trump said it was: "better to lift somebody up" then to take someone down, who has been perceived as something on a bully.
Michelle Obama spoke warmly of the Democratic nominee, saying: "We deserve a leader who will ensure that our daughters are safe and respected and that our sons understand that truly strong men are compassionate and kind.
"We deserve a leader who sees our diversity not as a threat, but as a blessing. A leader who sees us not as rich or poor but as hard-working folks who do the best we can with what we have."
She also spoke proudly of her husband, Barack, who was giving one of his final speeches as President: "I'm proud of not just what he has done but how he has done it."
She then introduced him as the "love of my life."
