Live stream of Dem Convention.

RE: Live stream of Dem Convention.
These congressmen and mayors aren't the DNC.

So far, they are talking about what they are, what they are going to do, rather than how evil the other candidate is.

I hope positive messages have an effect.

RE: Live stream of Dem Convention.
So far, I'm happy with the convention.

We had the expected Bernie supporters voicing our distaste at the start, but afterwards it has seemed to be a positive message---juxtaposed with the rampant hatred and fear mongering.

The Ken Jeong bits are great.

RE: Live stream of Dem Convention.
Think Bernie did a good enough job getting the Bernie or Bust crowd over to the Hilary camp? He seemed to stress the idea that he and Hilary compromised and combined their platforms in an effort to get them on board.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
