These speeches are wonderful--so glad I am eschewing the networks and getting it, sans the "this is how you should feel about that" crap, straight from the stage.

What a difference between this convention and the Trumpinator's.

Maybe there is some life left to our democracy after all.

I'm happy so far. The Elijah Cummings thing was disgraceful, but he really handled it with grace and did not seem to carry ill will toward Bernie. In fact, the common thing I've heard from all the other party reps is that they are working directly with Bernie in a cooperative spirit.

And won, by the way.

Quigley now. Yes, loved Luis.

Here is a picture from a Trump rally last week. Notice the total uniformity and adherence to authority. This is typical of one of Trumps speeches....Ok, I'm being told this is a Nazi rally in Germany in the early 1940's. I'll have to investigate further but I am skeptical.

And they had to bribe 30 of them to come in from the heat by offering free AC.

That is literally the only indication that I get that this isn't a trump rally from a few days ago. I would be in no way surprised if that were rows of people holding swastika flags at a Trump rally. However, his supporters would claim its an old good luck symbol from India.

Freedom, baby. Democracy, baby.

"Democratic Organization" is an oxymoron.
