1970S TELEVISION SHOWS
The following is a list of David Susskind Shows possibly housed in a number off-site facilities--if they can be located at all. These listed programs HAVE NOT BEEN INSPECTED thus we cannot guarantee the existence, quality, duration or timely delivery of any of the material listed here. We offer access to these tapes on the following basis ONLY: All tapes are on their original 2" video format. The only way to verify the contents is to screen them, thus we will need to pull them from the inventory, ship and transfer them before we are able to verify content and quality. A $500 fee PER TAPE is required when ordering screening material from this collection. This fee is NON-REFUNDABLE. This fee will cover the cost of 2" tape handling, 2" Fed-Ex shipping (2-way) and 2" transfer. PLEASE NOTE THAT MANY SHOWS ARE ON TWO SEPARATE TAPES, THUS IT COULD COST DOUBLE ($1000) TO SCREEN SOME COMPLETE SHOWS. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT EVEN IF YOU ORDER A SHOW BASED ON THE CATALOG NUMBER AND TITLE FROM THIS DATABASE WE CANNOT GUARANTEE THAT YOU WILL GET THE TAPE YOU ORDER. THIS IS BECAUSE THROUGH THE YEARS TAPES MAY HAVE BEEN PLACED IN THE INCORRECT CASES AND THE WRITTEN INFORMATION ON THE CASES IS ALL WE HAVE TO ID A TAPE BEFORE IT IS TRANSFERRED. WHILE WE WILL USE ALL EFFORTS TO EXPEDITE YOUR REQUEST, BUT WE CANNOT RUSH THE PROCESS, AND YOU ORDER THESE AT YOUR OWN RISK. IF WE DO NOT LOCATE THE TAPE THERE IS NO CHARGE, BUT IF WE DO AND IT IS REMOVED FROM THE FACILITY FOR TRANSFER, YOU WILL BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THESE NON-REFUNDABLE FEES.

NANCY PELOSI NEWS CONFERENCE
1400 PELOSI PRESSER FS12 82 CSPAN House Speaker Nancy Pelosi briefing 14:12:51 PELOSI: Good afternoon. There's so much going on. Thank you for accommodating our change in schedule today. As you probably are aware, I this afternoon sent a letter to the president expressing concern about the increased militarization and lack of clarity that may increase chaos. I--I'm writing to request a full list of the agencies involved and clarifications of the roles and responsibilities of the troops and federal law enforcement resources operating in the city. Well, I preface it by saying, as you probably saw, there are military on the steps of Lincoln--of the Lincoln Memorial. The--the--what is it? I'll--I'll read it to you. Soldiers on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial, Bureau of Prisons officers in Lafayette Square, the National Park Service doing that violent act of hassling peaceful protesters the other night. States have sent in National Guard troops from--from other states. 14:14:03 The FBI and other federal agencies are operating in the city. We want a complete list. Who's in charge? What is the chain of command? And by what authority does it--do these National Guard people come in from other states? By what authority? What is the mission? What is the chain of command? Who is in charge? We want some answers to that, and I sent that on behalf of my members. I feel, of course, today is a day of great sadness. They're having the first service for George Floyd. It is a national day of mourning, I see, for George Floyd, and we pray for his family and pray for healing for our country together here. People will be--have been gathering in Minneapolis for the first service. Across the country, the American people are grieving for over 100,000 people, lives lost, from COVID-19, and now for the victims of a pattern of--of racial injustice and brutality that we saw most recently in the death, the murder actually, of George Floyd. 14:15:19 Again, I--I--I'd refer to this letter. It's alarming that in our nation's capital pea--peaceful protesters are confronted with the deployment of a vary--various security officers with multiple--from multiple jurisdictions, including, and this is important, unidentified federal law enforcement. Further, in the letter, I say to make matters worse some officers have refused to provide information and have been deployed without identifying insignia, badges, or nameplates. The practice of officers operating with full anonymity undermines accountability and not--and nights--ignites government distrust and suspicion, and is counter to the principle of procedural justice and legitimacy during this precarious moment in our history. The Justice Department itself in the past has stated that allowing officers to work anonymously creates mistrust and undermines accountability, and it conveys a message to community members that, through anonymity, officers may seek to act with impunity. In recent days, many former high-level Department of Justice officials have echoed these concerns and warned that allowing federal law enforcement officers to operate without identification can fatally weaken oversight efforts and fails to send the message that abuse will be tolerated. 14:16:47 This is a--we're in a very difficult situation that has to be handled with care. We certainly want to support peaceful demonstrations. We all reject violence. But this militarization and this proliferation of different groups coming into the capital city, the capital city of our country, some without identification, others without justification, what is the mission? Who's in charge? What is the chain of command? We expect an answer to that. As you know, we are on the brink of announcing an initiative led by the Congressional Black Caucus, the chair, Karen Bass of California. 14:17:43 We'll be making that announcement on Monday. We are working with the Senate Democrats as well in advancing legislation protecting equal justice and including a number of provisions ending racial profiling, ending excessive use of force, ending qualified immunity, the qualified immunity doctrine, and again addressing the loss of trust between police departments and communities they serve. We will not relent until that secured, that justice is secured. The--what happened with--with George Floyd is--is so heartbreaking but pivotal. It's an inflection point. It is a threshold that our country has crossed. It isn't the first time someone has been harmed, murdered unfairly at the hands of law enforcement, but it is a time that is about a pattern at a time when people--the high tension wires are up because of the coronavirus and other people are dying, as well as the confinement, the economic uncertainty. 14:18:57 So, to address those health issues and to address the--the uncertainty and to just the well-being of our country, we hope that the Senate will soon take up the HEROES Act. The HEROES Act is about protecting the lives, the livelihood, and the life of our democracy and our country. You know the three main pillars; to open our economy, testing, tracing, treatment, confinement. We don't have a vaccine and we don't have a cure, but we do have testing, tracing, treatment, and--and isolation that can save lives, especially when we consider the disparity of--of the--the deaths by the coronavirus disproportionately affecting people of color. But if you don't test, you don't know, and you can't say--treat and save those lives. So, that's a major part of the HEROES act, called HEROES because we are honoring our heroes, our--our first responders, our healthcare workers, food, transit, sanitation, teachers, teachers, teachers, people who make our society go. And that is by helping state and local government. 14:20:11 Go to speaker.gov/heroesact, and see what it means to community near you, what it means to your state or to your municipality, perhaps even to your county; speaker.gov/heroesact. And then the third part of that, open our economy by--by testing; honoring our heroes by keeping government open; and third, putting money in the pockets of the American people, so important right now. Senator McConnell said we must take a pause. A pause? Is the virus taking a pause? Is unemployment taking a pause? Is hunger taking a pause? Is a rent check taking--a need for rent taking a pause? I don't think so, and nor should we. If we do not act soon, we will only worsen the economic--the fiscal impact and the economic impact on our society. 14:21:19 Don't take it from me, take it from the chairman of the Fed. We really need to act to invest. This recession will worsen unless we put money in the pockets of the American people. So, no, we don't need a pause. We need to pass of a bill in the Senate. And we have bipartisan support all over the country for those three main pillars, honor our heroes, open our economy by testing, money in the pockets of the American people. In addition to us--in addition to that, we want them agree to worker safe--safety in the workplace, support for the postal system, support for vote by mail, and again, support for food stamps to feed the hungry in our country. They seem so self-evident. 14:22:11 The--and again, we are hoping that will be soon. As you see, they have a change of attitude. We're excited that they finally did pass the PPP bill that Dean Phillips, a new member of Congress from Minnesota, had put forth, a bipartisan bill passed the Senate. I just signed it before I came over here. I would have signed it in front of you but they told me I had to have permission from the radio/TV gallery to do that. Is that--is that exactly what you said? So, since we didn't do that, so now we want--we want to move on with the--with that. For me, today is a very sad and special day. Today we solemnly mark 31 years since the Tiananmen Square massacre, 31 years. In 1991, I stood in Tiananmen Square, bipartisan group of members of Congress, bipartisan, and we unfurled a flag reading "To those who died for democracy." 14:23:14 We were chased by the police. It was a question of who could run faster because they were after us with clubs and whatever else. They took some of the press film or whatever--film, I mean, it's 31 years ago, away from them. Sadly, decades--decades later, China's record of repression is unchanged. I'm so proud that in a bipartisan way Congress has--has long been united in strong support for human rights in China. This past year, the House was--held Beijing accountable in a number of ways, passing the Uighur Human Rights Policy Act, which I signed the other day. Some of you were--was that yesterday? It seems like a long time ago. No, Tuesday. Tuesday, the Uighur Human Rights Policy Act, the Tibet Policy and Support Act, and the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. We hope as the president execute--implements these laws, we can work together to have a strategic plan, not only us in a bipartisan way, but also--and bicameral, but also globally to stop the oppression in China. 14:24:30 If we refuse--I always say this. If we refuse to condemn human rights violations in China because of economic concerns, then we lose all moral authority to criticize human rights violations anyplace in the world. So, with that, again, we are sad about George Floyd. We thank his family for the dignity and the inspiration that they have demonstrated in all of this, and we pray that he rests in peace. Any questions? QUESTION: Speaker Pelosi? PELOSI: Yes, ma'am. QUESTION: Thank you, Madam Speaker. About Hong Kong, UK Prime Minister Boris Johnson said yesterday he would be willing to allow nearly three million Hong Kongers-- PELOSI: --That's right-- QUESTION: --To work and live in the UK. Is this something that U.S. would consider if China implements its national security act? PELOSI: Well, I did have a conversation with the British ambassador yesterday on a variety of subjects, and then of course this came up. It's timely. This is consistent and a continuation of UK law vis-a-vis Hong Kong. So, he said he would consider. Let's see what they do. 14:25:49 What--the concern I have about it is though, I mean, as generous as that is, that would be a large percentage, maybe like 40 percent of the people of Hong Kong, and it would be a big brain drain on Hong Kong. So, again, I think it's a--a--a wonderful thing that people know that the--that people will know that their safety is protected and they can go to London, but I would hope that democracy could come to--democratic freedoms. We don't expect it to be democracy, but democratic freedoms could come to Hong Kong. Yes, ma'am? QUESTION: Yes. How are you? How you--how are you doing? PELOSI: I'm doing okay. QUESTION: If you'll indulge me, this is a bit of a long question. As it relates to police violence, I see different views among members of Congress. Do you in the caucus believe this is an issue of systemic racism in American policing? And would you be comfortable naming that? PELOSI: Well, we have--as I've mentioned, we're taking our lead from our distinguished chair of the Congressional Black Caucus, Karen Bass. 14:26:56 As you probably know, in the Congress of the United States, the Black Caucus is considered the con--the conscience of the Congress and their years of--of history, of experience. When I say experience, I mean personal as well as legislative experience, as to how we go forward. So, on Monday, we'll be making our announcement as to what--how we go forward in this particular aspect of it. But it is about other injustices too. It's about health disparities. It's about environmental injustice. It's about economic injustice. It's about educational injustice. So, we want to see this as the time where we can go forward in a very drastic way, not incrementally, but in an important way to redress those problems. QUESTION: So, at this time, systemic racism in American policing don't--you don't think that is-- 14:27:55 PELOSI: --Well, let--let me--let me le--lead the presentation to it up to the Caucus. We certainly do see that this is more than one or two people acting. There's a record and that's what I think this is--is so important about how many people are turning out because it's important as George Floyd's life is. And our hearts are broken that his life was taken. It's about a pattern of behavior so, I would use the word pattern. We'll see how the black caucus will want to present this. I'll tell you this, speaking of systemic, I--I had a privilege, and some of you know this, to go with the black caucus to Ghana last summer. It was the 400th anniversary of the first slaves coming across the ocean. I don't say to America because America didn't even ex--you know, didn't even exist then. It--it wasn't the United States. Just coming across the ocean. 14:28:56 These people were kidnapped or purchased, placed in dungeons beneath the dignity of an--of an--of a human being. You wouldn't even--it was horrible. Horrible, these dungeons. And we spent time in a dungeon, you could just imagine how awful it was with the number of people for the length of time. And if you survived that, because people died there, if you survived that, you were put on a death ship to cross the ocean to leave the door of no return--that's what it said, behind you, the door of no return. Leave your family, may never probably see again, cross the ocean on a death ship. And if you survived that, you were sold into slavery. For a couple hundred years, your family. If you survived that, you're some sturdy stock I would say, a blessing to America, but nonetheless victims of Jim Crow and other things. 14:30:00 I wish you could all go to Selma and to Birmingham into Montgomery and see the--the--the history there as we all were just most recently in March. And in one of the things in Bryan Stevenson's--one of his museums, he has two, the Lynching Museum and the other museum. In one of them, this is something that I can never get out of my mind, there are little children--little children speaking and they're little children holding hands and they're saying, "Mama, mama, has anyone seen our mother?" Separated from their children. Separated from their children is the--the parents separated from their children. So, you want to talk systemic, we're talking a long way back and a lot of injustice in it all. Sad to see when those children are separated from their parents in Mexico, that we could even think that that was an okay idea. 14:31:06 We just had to listen to the voices of the children. So, there's a lot that we have to redress in how we go forward. But maybe the sacrifice of George Floyd's life, sadly, is something that just takes us to a new and better place in how we address all of this. Yes, sir? You had a question? QUESTION: Oh, have you talked to any of your chairmen, whether it be Adam Smith or Oversight Committee about potentially calling General Mattis or any of the other generals who have spoken out recently? PELOSI: General--Chairman Smith is chairman, for those of you--he's the chairman of the f--of the Armed Services Committee. He has put out a statement earlier this week about calling in the dec--the current Secretary of Defense Esper and calling in of chairman of the Joint Chiefs Staff of General Milley, he said that. Today, when he was asked about--after Mattis, my understanding the statement was, first we're going to start with the current people in place and then we'll see where we go from there. 14:32:18 But everyone is very proud of the patriotism encourage of--of General Mattis--Secretary Mattis. I guess General must be a big title. Almost anybody can be a secretary, but a general, that's something else. (LAUGHTER) So, I--I--I don't know if that will follow, but he's going to take--follow up on his earl--announcement earlier in the week, yeah. As--as you know, all the committees have asked for things, the sec--the chairman of the Homeland Security Committee, Bennie Thompson of Mississippi, has asked--it's a--like a 16 page letter of things--a long letter talking about the secret serv--did I mention the secret serv--and oh, another agency of government doing law enforcement in the capital about the role of the Secret Service in all of this. So, different chairs have had different pieces of this. But to your question about Mattis, that's the most current information that I have. Yes, sir? 14:33:22 QUESTION: Madam Speaker, do you--there's been a number of protesters to defund police size and, in Los Angeles, that's--the city is considering diverting $150 million from police to various other programs--I'm not entirely sure what they are. I'm curious what you think of that--the policy of that and that movement which seems to be gaining steam in some of these protests? PELOSI: Well, I--I did hear of the--Los Angeles, that's about almost one-tenth of the budget, it's about $1.3ish billion and so that would be one-tenth of that. Again, I revert to the congressional black caucus as to how they want to prioritize. It's a question of curating some of these--some of these overlap. Prioritizing and then deciding in--in how many different bills will they appear. Some of them may have some bipartisan support right away and others may need some more work in that regard so, we--we shall see. 14:34:29 Yes, ma'am? QUESTION: Thank you, Madam Speaker. Congresswoman Ocasio-Cortez has announced support for Jamaal Brown over Chairman Eliot Engel. What does it mean that she may be standing up against some of the incumbents in your own party? PELOSI: Well, all I know what it means is that I firmly support Eliot Engel for Congress. And I support Alexandria her--for Congress as well. I think the people of New York are very blessed to have them both in the Congress. Chairman Engel is the chairman of the Foreign Affairs Committee. He also has the unique privilege--which is unique and it wouldn't happen again just--just happened in terms of his term here that he is also not only chairman of foreign affairs, he is a senior member of the Energy and Commerce Committee. And that wouldn't happen again. That--that's a lot of power. But it--he is in that position. 14:35:24 So, he--he does it--a great job for New York. And I wish him well in his election as I wish her well in her election. Yes, ma'am? UNKNOWN: Next question. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, regarding the scene of soldiers on the Lincoln Memorial-- PELOSI: --Yes-- QUESTION: --I wa--I was there yesterday. Were you even informed that this was going to happen? PELOSI: No. And I would like to know who they are. Are they military? Are they National Guard? QUESTION: I was told D.C. National Guard. I was told that some were D.C. National Guard. PELOSI: Well, that would be hard because we--and that's part of the complication. One of the things I'm going to ask the chairman of the Armed Services Committee to do is to enable the mayor of Washington to be able to call up the D.C. National Guard. And that's why we're asking, but what authority is the president sending people from these other states into D.C.? Who do they report to? Do they report to their governors? Is there a chain of command here? But I think--but what they did on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial was so stunning--that's why the word militarization is in my letter--it looked--it was scary. 14:36:37 Now, my daughter Alexandra, who is a journalist and a filmmaker--many years in the news. I say she crossed over to the other side--did they say she--does that mean she became a Republican? I said, no, she crossed over to the other side. She went into the news business. She was in Lafayette Square on Monday night and she called me at--after a certain period of time and she said, "Mom, you can't even believe what happened here. There was no trouble. It was all peaceful. And then, all of a sudden, these people came in and were hit--pushing people and hitting them with batons." And she thought she had tear gas in her eyes because she couldn't--you know, she was incapacitated for a while. And she called me after. They're saying now they didn't have teargas, but they had these pellets that exploded--had the impact of teargas, whether that qualifies or not, I don't know. It just enables them to have deniability. But the fact is they had the impact of teargas and they were roughing up people for no reason. And they crossed a threshold with that. 14:37:45 And then to make room for whatever it was to follow. So, I think that they made a couple of mistakes in that 24-hour period. While I have great respect for our men and women in uniform, I don't think it was appropriate to have them on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial. I don't think it was appropriate for people to rough people up in Lafayette Square who were demonstrating peacefully so that the president could come through and do his staged event at St. John's which was magnificently addressed by the Episcopal Bishop of Washington--of this area as being inappropriate. And I was very proud of the Catholic archbishop the next day when the--the president visited the shrine of Pope John Paul--Saint Pope John Paul. And he said this--and I think it says--it really echoes the words of the Bishop of Washington but--I don't think I have it. Do I have it? I want you to hold on for second because you have to hear this. No, I don't seem to have it. 14:39:09 But it--oh, here we are, hiding under here. Archbishop Wilton Gregory issued a statement on the pun--the president's visit to--to the Shrine of St. John Paul II. I find it baffling and reprehensible that any Catholic facility would allow itself to be so egregiously misused and manipulated in a fashion that violates our religious principles which call on us to defend the rights of all people, even those with whom we may disagree. Saint Pope John Paul II was an ardent defender of the rights and dignity of human beings. His legacy wa--bears vivid witness to that truth. He certainly would not condone the use of teargas and other deterrents to silence, scatter, or intimidate them for a photo opportunity in front of a place of worship and peace. It's a funny thing that the admi--you--White House put out some kind of a statement saying that the president there with the Bible at St. John's was the equivalent of Winston Churchill going to the ruins of London. 14:40:27 Or George--George W. Bush at 9/11. I rest my case. We do need--I--I--I quoted class--Ecclesiastes, a time--a time to heal. This is a time to heal. Let's hope that holding that Bible--something by osmosis or something may have gotten to the president about healing, which is Ecclesiastes in the Bible, a time to heal. It even says in Ecclesiastes--did you ever know this? I didn't. And I've read it many times. But in this--in this version, it says a time to embrace and a time not to embrace. (LAUGHTER) Must've been foreseeing what we're going through now. But President Obama spoke so beautifully after the murder of Eric Garner--Garner. Right now, unfortunately, we see too many incidences where people just do not have confidence that folks are being treated fairly. 14:41:25 He says, this is not just a black problem or brown problem or Native American--this is an American problem where no--anybody in the country is not being treated equally under the law, that's a problem. And then pre--President George W--George Herbert Walker Bush, the father, he said this after the Rodney King beating, those terrible scenes stir us all to demand an end to gratuitous violence and brutality. Law enforcement officials cannot place themselves above the law that they are sworn to defend. It was sickening to see the beating that was rendered, and there's no way--no way in my view to explain that away. It was outrageous. Time, time, time, time, a time to heal. Thank you all very much.

NANCY PELOSI NEWS CONFERENCE
1040 PELOSI NEWSER FS6 87 NBC POOL House Speaker Nancy Pelosi holds her weekly press conference 10:57:16 PELOSI: Good morning-- UNKNOWN: --Morning, Speaker-- PELOSI: --and a good morning it is. The Supreme Court decision upholding President Obama's wonderful action to support our DREAMers. The DACA decision is something that supports our values as a country. The DREAMers across the country enjoy more popularity than almost anyone. Overwhelmingly it's something like 75, 80 percent of the American people--three-quarters of the people who vote support the DREAMers. Three-quarters of it. Large number of Republicans, Independents, people who--over 60 percent of people who support President Trump support the DREAMers.So, this is really--we were in--just--in such dread about what could possibly happen at the court up until last night just--if it goes this way, if it goes that way. 10:58:17 But this way is the American way and we're very proud of it. So, that was this morning. Last night in the Judiciary Committee--late last night the committee overwhelmingly passed out the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act which will now go to rules and then come to the floor before the Fourth of July. We're very proud of the work that was done by Chairwoman Karen Bass, the chair of the Judiciary Committee but also the chair of the Crime Subcommittee of the Judiciary Committee. This morning, the Supreme Court and DACA. Last night, the Judiciary Committee and the Justice in Policing Act. Tomorrow is Juneteenth. A day that we observe as a day of--of freedom in our country. It was a day that people in the west found out about the Emancipation Proclamation. In observance of that, I've sent a letter which you will see to the Clerk of the House directing the--the clerk to remove the portraits of four previous Speakers of the House who served in the Confederacy. 10:59:23 I--we didn't know about this until we were taking inventory of the statues and the curator told us that there were four paintings of Speakers in the Con--in the Capital of the United States--four Speakers who had served in the Confed--federacy. So, tomorrow, Juneteenth, the clerk will oversee removal of those Confederate Speakers from the House. As I've said before, there's no room in the hallowed halls of this democracy, this temple of democracy, to memorialize people who embody violent bigotry and grotesque racism of the Confederacy. You have to see the remarks that they had made, how oblivious they were to what our founders had in mind in our country. We must lead by example. So, we're glad that that is gone. 11:00:40 The--I'll take some questions in a moment about the Justice in Policing Act, but we are very proud of the legislation that was put together. It was the work of decades. These bills have been in the hopper for a while. But in terms of the public sentiment to get the job done in a strong way, the moment is now. As we take action on the--justice in the--in policing, we also have to recognize other injustice in our country. Whether it's injustice in healthcare and the economy, in--environmental injustice that exists, the list goes on. And one manifestation of it right now is the Coronavirus impact--having a disparate impact on people of color in our country. And so we're hoping and pushing and advocating for the passage of the HEROES Act to open our economy, testing tracing, treating, isolating. Get the job done. 11:01:45 We don't have--we don't have a vaccine and we don't have a cure. Hopefully, we will, and that science will be the answer to our prayers in that regard. But we do have testing, tracing, treatment, and we want to address that in a way that demon--that takes the data that shows the disparate impact on people of color in our country so that we can save their lives. So that we can save their lives. The legislation also has an impact on our economy, and yesterday--on the day--and the day before the chairman of the Fed, Jerome Powell urged Congress not to take our foot of the brake. I would think it would be of concern to Congress if Congress were to pull back from the support that it is providing too quickly. I do think it would be appropriate to think about continuous support for people who are newly out of work and for smaller businesses who are struggling. The economy is nos--just now beginning to recover. It is a critical phase and I think the support would be well placed at this time. 11:02:53 He's not the only one. Moody's yesterday--the ec--economic forecasting for Moody's published an analysis that highlights the need for the HEROES Act. Quote, "Without additional help from Congress and the Administration, prospects for a double-digit unemployment throughout the end of next year. And even this assumes nothing else goes wrong like a serious second wave of the virus. How well the economy does in the next several years depends critically on what lawmakers decide to do in the next few weeks." And in the next few weeks, we are hoping that a--we--as you've seen it went from never, we're not doing another bill to well, maybe but not so big. And maybe, but not so soon. And you see they're having their own internal debate about the size and scope and timing of what happens next. But we must help our--honor our heroes, help our state and local governments. I've told you before, Speaker dot gov slash HEROES Act to see what it means to you and your community. 11:04:04 Open our economy: testing, tracing, treating, and isolation. And direct payments. They have sit--has been said by economists including Secretary--Chairman Powell that--that increa--that improvement that was viewed in the May employment numbers was largely because of the unemployment insurance and the direct payments. We must do that again. And of course, we want our voting--vote by mail legi--money in there as well. So, tomor--later today--not here but in the Rayburn Room House Democrats will unveil HR2, the Moving Forward Act, taking bold transformational action to build the infrastructure of America while again addressing key injustices. Injustice of transportation and transit and the rest. 11:05:07 Sadly, the COVID-19 crisis has laid bare many vulnerabilities and disparities in our nation in terms of healthcare, financial security, housing, transportation, and more, which we will combat with this legislation. Democrats' plan will protect families' health, create jobs, grow the economy, invest in clean energy and climate resilience, and ensure that American's infrastructure is the envy of the world. We will bring this bill to the floor and pass it before the Fourth of July. And with that, you know the three things we said when we ran. For the people we would lower the cost of prescription drugs, lower the cost of healthcare by lowering the cost of prescription drugs and preserving the preexisting condition. That bill once again will be on the floor on June 29th. 11:06:01 The Affordable Care Act Enhance--Affordable Care Enhancement Act. The next day--maybe it'll take two days--we'll vote on lower healthcare costs, bigger paychecks by building the infrastructure of America. That will be the next two days. And before then, making our government better with the Justice in Policing Act, which will be the end of next week. With that, any questions? Yes sir. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, on the police reform bill, I know this is getting a little bit ahead of things, but I know you're very proud of your bill. The Senate Republicans introduced theirs. Can you imagine would you support ending up in conference on this? I mean--there's a limited amount you can do to affect what the Senate's going to do. But if you can booth--move things in parallel--is that where you see this going-- 11:06:46 PELOSI: --Well we'd like to end up in Sen--in--in conference because that's how Congress works its will. The House acts, the Senate acts, and you go to conference and try to reconcile the legislation. It's so important--the American people care so much. They know so much. They are watching. And this is an opportunity that we have never had before. As you can see, taking all kinds of shape in terms of setting the record straight as to who we are as a country and how we treat people. And so, again, my negotiators are the--Kar--lead by Karen Bass and Jerry Nadler, the chair of the Judiciary Committee. And I'm very proud of the work that they have done. It's very different in terms of what it does than the Senate bill. But at least they have similar categories. QUESTION: Well to that end, in your conversations with leader Schumer are you encouraging him to--to let that Senate bill move forward to ultimately get to that point? 11:07:45 PELOSI: One of the things you should know about our interaction is they don't tell me what to do and I don't tell them what to do. (LAUGHTER) That's up to the Senate to make their own decision about how--how they go forward. But we do have a bill that is introduced in the House and in the Senate. We're very proud of the work also of Senator Booker and Senator Harris in the--how they contributed to what this bill is. And we'll leave it up to them to make their judgment about how to proceed in the Senate. Yes sir. QUESTION: Madam Speaker thank you. Good morning. PELOSI: Good morning. QUESTION: On the DACA ruling, in mid-November the president indicated that if the Supreme Court ruling did not go his direction, he might be willing to make a deal. I remember I asked you a couple of years ago when we were dealing with the border wall issue if you would be willing to trade border wall money for a bona fide DACA agreement. You said no at that point-- PELOSI: --That's right. QUESTION: Do you see a possibility for any sort of an--based on what the president said in November a--a deal on DACA or--or--or moving some sort of immigration legislation between now and the election? 11:08:49 PELOSI: Well, we would like to pass the DREAM Act. The DREAM and Promise Act, which goes well beyond DACA to many more DREAMers. It goes for TPS, temporary protected status, DED, a deferred enforcement kind of a--a provision. So, we would like to see that bill passed. What we'd really like though is to come together to talk about the comprehensive immigration reform that goes even well beyond the legislation I just talked about. But there isn't anybody in the immigration community that wants us to trade a wall for immigration. QUESTION: But--but what about just doing--you know--immigra--is that back on the table now where you can see the House maybe passing an immigration bill now before, say, the election. PELOSI: Well, we did pass a bill. It's called the DREAM Act. QUESTION: I know but I mean the comprehensive--comprehensive bill I'm talking about-- 11:09:40 PELOSI: --Well, the--well, it's--we--we'll see. I mean, there had been times when the President has said that he would support a bipartisan comprehensive immigration reform right there on tv in the White House with Democratic and Republican members of Congress in the House and Senate there, and then reneged on it. So, we'll--we'll see. I mean, it would be great if we could do that. It's what we really need to do for our country. There was bipartisan support in the Senate for such a bill, which the Senate Repub--House Republicans would not allow to be brought up in the House. So, it isn't as if we haven't found our common ground. We can. But there isn't that much time. A hundred--what is it? A hundred and thirty-- QUESTION: --Eight, something like that-- QUESTION: --Eight. But who's counting? PELOSI: 138 days-- (LAUGHTER) Well, let's hope for the best and always try to find that. But I don't--I don't--I don't know what the President meant. Maybe he doesn't either because he's backed off what he said before. Yes ma'am. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, obviously there are stemming allegations in John Bolton's new book. I'm curious, do you want to see him testify in the House? And would you be willing to subpoena him if necessary? 11:11:00 PELOSI: Well, the--it's interesting. Because he was so arrogant in terms of the House when we were engaged in the impeachment. We did impeach the president of the United States. Removing him from office requires a vote of the Senate. And they have said that there is no--many of them have said there's nothing that John Bolton has put forth that would change their mind about removing the president from office. Because no matter how unfit the president is, they just did not want a Democratic president. President Trump by dint of what we saw in the impeachment, by what others are being quoted as saying in terms of leaders in the president's adminis--own Administration--President Trump is clearly ethically unfit and intellectually unprepared to be the President of the United States. That doesn't seem to matter to the Republicans in the United States Senate. It didn't seem to matter to John Bolton. He chose loyalty over loy--over patriotism. 11:12:10 And--and so he's going to make money off of his book, I guess. So, we'll make a judgment. I'll be meeting with the chairs to make a judgment. So we'll make a judgement, I'll be meeting with the chairs to make a judgement. Because it's not necessarily about whether subpoena, or what--we did subpoena some of his employees, and they very courageously testified--some of the people who worked with him, very courageously testified as Mr. Schiff's statement. Mr. Schiff put out a very strong statement, I--I'd call it to your attention, Eliot Engel, the chair lead--the Foreign Affairs Committee put out a very strong statement on this. And we'll be discussing how the American people are best served by oversight. The public has a right to know. As you know, we're waiting for the court to decide, maybe by the end of this month, as to whether they will support what our founders had in mind in the separation of powers, three separate coequal branches of government, each a check and balance on the other. 11:13:11 That is what is at stake, and is before the Supreme Court now, when it comes to subpoenas being respected by the Executive branch. So, we'll take a (INAUDIBLE) one thing is for sure, American people have the right to know our oversight will always continue, whether that's by subpoena or some other way. I'll discuss that with the chairs of the committees. QUESTION: Given what you've seen in the book, though, do you have any-- PELOSI: --I haven't seen the book. I'm not paying any money for a book-- QUESTION: --You're not going to buy it? PELOSI: I don't want to pay any money for a book that was a substitute for testifying before Congress about the wellbeing of the American people. QUESTION: Do you have any regrets about not closing this issue--? 11:13:54 PELOSI: --I have no regrets, no, I'm very proud of what we did. They--a decision--decisions were made. So for somebody who's trying to keep the con going with the right wing of the Republican Party by criticizing us for not subpoenaing him when he said he wouldn't come in, he'd only go to the Senate where he knew the Senate would not subpoena him. So this is--you know, this is called a con, and we are very proud of what we have done. And it's really a sad thing because he knew that the president should be removed from office, that's clear. And he does want to keep his ties to the right wing, so he does that by criticizing us. I place no value on that. I repeat, President Trump, it's clear--the evidence is clear, it always has been, President Trump is ethically unfit and intellectually unprepared to be president of the United States. Yes, sir. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, related a little bit to what Kat had asked you, about these sort of big moments that Congress is faced before, whether it be immigration or gun violence, or deficit reduction. We have seen these moments where it seems like there's a lot of buy-in for a common cause only for it to fall apart in the end, and I'm curious your level of confidence on police reform given that this appears to be one of those moments? 11:15:18 PELOSI: Well, you know, we go back to Abraham Lincoln; public sentiment is everything. With it, you can accomplish almost anything, without it, practically nothing. Now, you've heard me say that before-- QUESTION: --Multiple times-- PELOSI: --again, and again, and again, and it is a fact. And public sentiment--but for public sentiment to weigh in, the public has to know. And that is sometimes the challenge, do people really know what the choice is here? They do. They do, they have made it clear, beautifully, patriotically, peacefully. And for the Congress of the United States to ignore that call for justice would be wrong. So I--I'd have confidence that something will happen now, because it must, because the people insist, and they're not going to stop insisting until we get--until we get something done. Woman, yes. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, just want to go back to the police reform bills, for-- PELOSI: --I'm so sorry-- QUESTION: --Sorry about that. There we go-- PELOSI: --little bit louder? QUESTION: I just want to go back to the police reforms for bills for a moment, just in some of the reactions from law enforcement. Over in Los Angeles, there's been a reaction of apparently some officers did not show up to work over at the NTA, over in Atlanta, we're hearing that officers didn't report to work there. Is there concern about blue flu, essentially, happening across the country in reaction to what we're seeing up here on Capitol Hill as well as locally? 11:16:58 PELOSI: I think that the men and women in blue, whether that's--firefighters are in blue, too, I think. But our men and women in blue, there are enough of them there to keep the American people safe, who care about doing their jobs in a way that honors justice. And we've had communication with the Fraternal Order of Police, I've connected with Karen Bass, so that she could hear some of their concerns, and we think that there's a place for us to come together. J We do know that--that there's some people who--as we've seen their actions, that are not--I don't think everybody who wears blue would be proud of those actions. But I do think there are many people in blue whose actions we are proud of, and I think there are enough of them to keep the American people safe. Any more women, any more women, no more women? Yes, ma'am. UNKNOWN: Last question. PELOSI: Well, I--I--we could have one more. QUESTION: Have you spoken to the administration at all about negotiating on the HEROES Act, and are you open to pulling out elements of the HEROES Act and putting it on the floor as smaller bills to address the pandemic and the need for relief? 11:18:24 PELOSI: Well, what would they want to do? If we take out the state and local government money, which is absolutely essential, by the end of June, many states and localities have to have their budgets balanced. But the grim reaper says he doesn't seem to care about that. Really? Really? You don't care about the fact that state and local governments who meet the needs of people need to have their balance--their budgets balanced. And this is money that is needed for them to pay for their--the cost of the coronavirus to them, their outlays of money, to meet the needs and a loss of revenue. Meet the needs, loss of revenue on the coronavirus. Testing, testing, testing. Are they willing to help the states test in a way that fights this, fights this virus, defeats this virus? Why would we divide those two? Because they are directly connected. 11:19:29 And what piece would they want? Would they want to do--they say they don't want to do unemployment insurance. This is the 13th week that we've had over a million people applying for unemployment. Thirteenth straight week, over a million.So, what--what piece would--would you subtract? This is a very disciplined, focused, necessary piece of legislation. Honor our heroes, support state and local. Open our economy; testing, pricing, treatment. Money in the pockets of the American people. I think they're all very connected and should go forward together. 11:20:24 I haven't seen any initiative on their--I haven't seen them say we should help state and local--a few of them in the Senate have, but I haven't seen anybody in the House say that, I haven't seen any of them say we really need to test so that we can address this comprehensively, addressing the disparity in all this. And I have heard some of them say they don't want to do anymore unemployment insurance. Unemployment--all the three things I just mentioned, they are all stimulus to the economy. They are all stimulus to the economy. Because I have to say it all the time, the one piece, state and local government, speaker.gov/heroesact, go look it up, is half, costs half of what the Republicans did in their tax scam, which gave 83 percent of the benefits to the top 1 percent, did not provide any stimulus to the economy, and heaped two trillion dollars of debt onto our--our children. 11:21:32 So for half of what they were willing to do for the high end, we'll want to do for the whole country, and at the same time honor our--our heroes. Yes, sir. QUESTION: Madam Speaker, I wonder if you--you said you--you don't like the Republican bill, but you at least--the categories seemed the same on the policing reform, or you indicated that. I wonder if you see more urgency here on police reform than you saw on, you know, kind of the gun question, or on any number of other bills that the Senate has not taken up. I mean, at least, you're both working on the same topic, I wonder if that's notable to you at all. 11:22:13 PELOSI: Well the gun issue is very important. Yesterday was the five-year anniversary, as you know, of Emanuel, that terrible shooting, where that young man went in there, prayed with people, and then shot them dead. So, we've been carrying that around all the--you know, for that long time, but memorializing it again yesterday. So the gun issue is a very important issue, and it's one that is very--background check legislation, including Mr. Clyburn's South Carolina fix, is--is important to us. And like 80 percent of the American people support that, including gun owners who have to have background checks, and they do comply with that and support that legislation. 11:23:04 We haven't seen tens of thousands of people in the streets, day in and day out over a long period of time, a message that's spread throughout the world about justice, about justice. So that demonstration in the streets was about this issue, about police brutality, but also about fairness, just fairness across the board. And when you're talking about brutality, and you're talking about safety, you're talking about guns, too. So that continues to be a very important issue for us. But you would have to admit, and it is quite obvious to all of us, that we have not ever seen anything quite like the peaceful demonstrations that are out there, awakened by the visible strangulation, lynching, chokehold of George Floyd, and the reaction that people had to it. Wasn't the first time it happened, it happened many times before, but it just somehow or other, was the tipping point. 11:24:22 I'll just close by saying what I've said to you before. And we had Bryan Stevenson, we talked to him about--you know, he has the lynching museum in Alabama, where we--many of us were just there in March. And when you go to--he has two museums, one's like a monument and the other one's a museum. When you go to the museum, it's about slavery, and this or that--and I bring it up again, because as a mom, it just impressed me so. I had my grandson with me when we saw this. There are two little children on the wall, they're slaves, and they speak. And they say, "Mama, mama," they're little children, "Mama, mama, has anyone seen our mother? Does anyone know where our mother is?" And of course you know the mother has been separated from the children, and the brutality of all of that. 11:25:22 And then, to hear George Floyd call out for his mother, just a universal call, the humanity of it all. I think the--it just struck such a chord for many reasons, not just the mama part, but the part of eight minutes and 46 seconds, where somebody plead a number of times, I can't breathe. The inhumanity of it all, I think, has taken us to a place where we will get--we will have justice, we will have a bill. I hope it is sooner rather than later. Thank you. QUESTION: Is there going to be baseball? Is there going to be baseball? 11:26:15 PELOSI: I hope so. QUESTION: Have you spoken to any of the lead commissioners? PELOSI: No, no I haven't. QUESTION: Will you? As a favor to us.

2020 CANDIDATES LONG BEACH CA DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION GAGGLE CAM P2 ABC UNI 2020/HD
TVU 14 DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION LONG BEACH CA GAGGLE CAM ABC UNI 111619 2020 P2 [gap] [20:55:58] Program of what I think we actually need to do, in particular, I would declare a state of emergency on day one. I would not wait for. I would ask Congress to pass some version of the Green New Deal on day one, but they've gone over 30 years in terms of passing things. So from my standpoint, if you actually look at the climate, you see this is a real time state of emergency. That's what I declare. I wouldn't wait. I would ask Congress to pass, but we're not waiting. Day one state of emergency. Emergency powers, the presidency number one goal of foreign policy. [20:56:30] So do I support the Green New Deal? Yes. [20:56:35] You, Mr. Starr, if you support a deal on which Medicare for. [20:56:44] Look, everybody, I think who's a Democrat running for president wants two things. In terms of health care. Health care, affordable health care as a right for every American and to use the buying power, the negotiating power of the federal government to drive down costs. There are two ways to do that, and people have been arguing about it. [20:57:06] From the very first debate and continued up to today about whether that should be Medicare for all or we scrap the existing system and put everybody on the government system, or if we leave the existing system of private insurance and let people who you automatically everybody would be enrolled in Medicare, but the people don't can choose it who already have another choice. That's a public option. [20:57:31] The reason that I'm for the public option is because I believe it does let us do the two things I'm talking about, make me make health care available to everybody and drive down costs. But it doesn't say to 160 million Americans, including millions, tens of millions of union workers who've negotiated to get their health care through their employment, that they have to do what the government says or they're breaking the law. [20:57:54] If if the public option is so great, they can go to their employer and say, give me the money you're spending on my health care, I'll buy the public option, but it's choice. It's still America. We don't scrap the existing system. We let people make their choice. And I also think you can see this system. It's not like we're just starting a health care system. We have one we can build on that system and make it better and move towards that. [20:58:17] If people want that, if if the public option is so cheap and so great, let everybody choose it and we'll get there because they chose it. But I don't like the idea of killing 160 million Americans. I know your health care better than you know your health care. I know your family better than you know your family. I know your life. You do it my way or you're breaking the law. Doesn't seem very to question. [20:58:38] What is your plan to make sure that police are held accountable for acts of brutality? [20:58:42] So we've seen. Injustice across the criminal justice system and in particular, we've seen policing that has we've seen it on our cameras has been unjust. So when we think about it, there's a number of things we can do to prevent it in the future that involve resources, training, more community based policing, specifically making sure that happens, but also oversight that the Justice Department can make sure that police that the police treat communities fairly. And we know that there's been a racial bias in this. [20:59:21] So there's a whole bunch of things we can do in terms of resources, attention, training and specifically community based policing. But in addition, we can hold people accountable to make sure that when they're doing the wrong thing, they don't get away with. Thank you, everyone. It's a treat. Thank you, guys. Wonderful. [20:59:46] Look, I think the first debate I just wanted to introduce myself to millions of people who never met me, never heard of me, didn't know my name. I think this in this case, I'd like to more clearly define how I'm different from the other people in the state, because I think I have a different background. I think I'm saying different things. I think I have different priorities. I want to make a picture that people understand those because I think they're really important and I believe that they're the right thing for America. Thank you. ANDREW YANG [21:01:30] Everybody gets a thousand dollars. You see there's a thousand dollars. [21:01:35] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Eight minutes. [21:01:44] Yeah. I get to choose what a delight I choose. [21:01:51] There are many Medicare for all day. Me. What do you think of Elizabeth Warren's new transition? Is your concern? [21:02:02] It does in part. I think Senator Warren is wrong when she says that all Americans uniformly hate their health insurance plans and coverage. That's not the case in the studies I've seen. When you ask Americans how many of them like their insurance coverage, it's a actually significant proportion. [21:02:20] And so if we're going to convince Americans to shift to a different health care plan, to me the best way to do that is to provide a superior option that Americans would prefer. I think her new transition timeline is better than saying we're gonna do it all at once. But I'm skeptical that some of her funding mechanisms are realistic because a lot of the funding comes from an elevated wealth tax of 6 percent. And when the wealth tax has been implemented in Sweden, Germany, France, Denmark and other countries, it has not met its revenue targets and it's had massive compliance issues. And that would be even more true at 6 percent than it would at 2 percent. [21:03:03] I like to go man, woman. [21:03:04] So if you want, you know it. [21:03:23] I love this question because it's assuming that I become president United States in 2021. We pass the freedom dividend. Everyone gets a thousand dollars a month. It makes us stronger, healthier, mentally healthier, improves relationships and decision making creates hundreds of thousands of jobs around the country. [21:03:38] And then some landlords look up and say, well, maybe I can stick it to tenants because they're getting an extra thousand dollars a month. If you look at our economy today, there are three core sources of inflation that are making us miserable. Unfortunately, the three big ones. Housing, education and health care. If you look at our other consumer goods, most of them are staying the same in cost or getting better or cheaper. [21:03:58] What am I talking about? Clothing, electronics, media, most food, cars, all staying stable in price or getting cheaper or better. So why are housing, education and health care are getting more and more expensive? It's because these markets are dysfunctional in different ways. Education. The cost of college has gone up 250 percent, even though it has not gotten any better. Health care, their business model is to raise the prices every single year. Notice how drug prices and insurance prices never go down, they only go up housing. [21:04:29] There are a number of issues. One is that it's hard to develop affordable housing in many parts of the country because of NIMBYism and the fact that everyone's for affordable housing in the abstract. But then when you say, hey, it's gonna be in your neighborhood. Then they say, how about it be somewhere else? So what you have to do is you have to put buying power in our hands. That would actually make it harder for us to be exploited and pushed around. So imagine if everyone here got an extra thousand dollars a month. [21:04:53] You're very happy. You're like, wow, that Yang guy really did it. And then the next year, your landlord was like, hey, I'm going to ratchet up your rent by a thousand dollars. What would you do? Would you say, Oh, I guess I'm paying that rent? Of course not. You would look around and say, wait a minute, is there another place that's not going to stick it to me? And then you try and find another landlord that's not trying to gouge you to the Nth Degree. Maybe you find that landlord and let's say every landlord decide to try and stick it to everyone. [21:05:18] Then you would look up and say, OK, there are three or four of us with an extra thousand dollars a month. That's an extra 4000 dollars a month. Maybe we will buy a fixer upper and actually make that someplace we can live. Particularly because the freedom dividend is portable. It goes with you wherever you go. It actually makes us much harder to push around for landlords. But the goal is to have separate plans in place to reduce the inflation in housing, education and health care that are making us miserable because in the other marketplaces you see that a combination of price sensitivity among consumers and competitive dynamics in those markets actually keeps prices lower. [21:05:58] Yes. [21:06:03] Oh, so heartbreaking. Kill. [21:06:05] Kill. Kill two to two students. So American. I was the reporter on the ground and many parents were asking what could be done with it? Is it metal detectors? Is it more mental health counselors? You'd think Big Pharma is playing a role in what's going on with mental health and. [21:06:22] Now, I'm I'm the parent of two young boys in my son's school, just had his first active shooter drill, and my son is 4 years old. And so you have to ask yourself, is this where our country is and how can we improve it? I looked at what happened in Santa Clarita. It's heartbreaking, man. I'm sorry you had to report on that and see what was happening in the families and communities. As a parent, it's heart wrenching. [21:06:46] And to me, we have to attack the epidemic of gun violence at every level. So you start at the top with common sense gun laws that most Americans at this point should have agreed should've been passed years ago when you break the stranglehold of the NRA. But in this particular case, some of those laws would not have influenced this particular shooting because this was not an assault weapon. This was not someone who was going to run afoul of a background check. I don't believe this particular individual had any record to speak of. And so then you have to go deeper. [21:07:14] What is the chain of events that leads to gun violence? The last steps are procuring a gun and then using it, which are terrible, tragic steps. But we all know that there are many steps that happened beforehand, including in this case. So I'm talking about what's going on in families, what's going on in schools. What's going on in communities. And we have to face facts that 96 percent plus of the shooters we're talking about are boys or men. We have a massive failure in our society to help. [21:07:42] Turn our boys into strong, healthy men, and as a parent of two boys, I see this and I can see that having the wrong boy in the wrong school can lead to tragic outcomes generally for the boy and his family. But every once in a while, those outcomes can become. Externalized and tragic to others. So we have to try and rebuild from the ground up our families, our schools, we have to make our schools and then on the assembly lines with these standardized tests that kids all feel like they're just on a on an assembly line moving forward, they're just like an interchangeable widget. [21:08:18] We have to have an education system that treats our kids as individuals who learn differently, who might be at different stages, that they're not all going to be at the same point in their development at age 12 or 13 or 14. And this is a very high bar for schools. Most schools right now do not have the expertise or resources to be able to help our kids. Boys in particular manage some of these issues, and that's what we can influence. That might have helped prevent this particular tragedy. [21:08:45] I would invest in social, emotional learning in every school in. Managing technology because one of the things that we also do not talk about is that the mental health crisis among young people is hand in hand, is lockstep with smartphone adoption and use of social media apps. And as a child, I was a very shy, introverted kid. But when I went home and I shut the door, my classmates were not in the room with me. [21:09:11] You know what I mean? It's like you shut the door and then you could read a book and get lost in your own world. And it's not like you have to worry about what people are thinking about. You are saying to you. But our kids today, their peers are with them everywhere they go. So the way we prevent this tragedy, we start with the guns. Yes. But we have to go deeper and start trying to reconstitute our families, our schools or approach to mental health, our approach to our educational system and our approach to technology, particularly in the hands of kids, minors and teenagers. [21:09:44] WOMAN Yes. [21:09:48] So. [21:10:02] The Equal Rights Amendment should have been law. And the fact that it's not. I actually had to look up and say, wait a minute. We actually don't protect the. Equal rights for people of different sexual orientation. I assume that we actually had done that quite some time ago. So I'm 100 percent aligned with the fact that we need to make it a law. And I would make it a top priority as president. I think that we should do a number of things with the Supreme Court in particular. Number one, we should have term limits for Supreme Court justices. At this point, there is no reason why we are following. [21:10:39] A centuries old practice of lifetime appointments. When the Constitution was written, people do not live as long as they did. Now, as they do now and Supreme Court justices actually step down all the time for any of a number of reasons, they did not have that post until literally they were at death's door. And number two, I would look at expanding the Supreme Court because that would actually help depoliticize it. If you have 18 year terms and a larger bench, then instead of feeling like you're putting a Supreme Court judge in place, that's going to have an impact for 30 years hence your rotating one off every two years and then our laws can evolve more with our society, with the times. [21:11:17] Last question. [21:11:21] I like this man is out to do some wonderful things here, too, by the way. [21:11:28] Yeah, you did. I appreciate that. So no, you start the Yanks year. [21:11:33] You get a good. Lot of love, a lot of your economic ideas. However, some of us are very concerned when it comes to some of us. Let's give it up. Thanks. Well, see you. [21:11:49] Would you call it? Well. [21:11:55] I'm going to outline some of my foreign policy principles to give you a sense of where I am. I've signed a pledge to end the forever wars. We should not be in a conscious state of armed conflict as we have been for the last 18 years. In our Constitution, it does not say that it's in the president's capacity to even declare war. It says it's an act of Congress. But Congress has ceded that responsibility to the executive branch for the last 18 years, and that is not the way it should be. If we do intervene militarily, there's a three part test. [21:12:25] You can call the Yang Doctrine. No one there has to be a vital national interest at stake or we can avert humanitarian catastrophe. Number two, there's a clearly defined timeline for how long our troops will be in the theater and in harm's way. And number three, there are allies and partners that are willing to join us in the mission. If those three things are in place, then I would consider military action. And that gives you a sense of how my progressive priorities apply internationally. [21:12:56] The reason why I think we are suffering so much under President Trump, if you look at the order of operations, our strength abroad reflects how we're doing at home. We are falling apart at home. We elected a narcissist reality TV star as our president. He is now an erratic and unpredictable foreign policy leader. Our allies are looking around saying, what the heck happened? The United States. [21:13:18] So how do we come back from this? We become stronger and more whole at home. And then we go to our partners and say, America's back. We're going to have a sustained and reliable foreign policy set of priorities that you can actually rely on over the long haul. Thing was, James Mattis, who said if we invest less in diplomats, we have to invest more in ammunition. And that's not a dove. That's the former secretary of defense. We need to invest more in diplomats and less and less and ammunition. [21:13:48] I think what we're doing. [21:13:50] All right, guys. Handsome Zach says, wait, I got a question on climate change. All right. Yeah, sure. [21:13:55] What was it right now? [21:14:18] I released a fairly extensive climate change. Platform about, what, three, four weeks ago and includes the fact that we have to move on from subsidizing fossil fuel industries who benefited from tens of billions of dollars in subsidies and turn those funds and subsidies to solar, wind, renewable source of energy. We should tax carbon and pollution immediately. One of the big problems in American life today is that there are these negative externalities that companies don't pay for and we all pay for it. [21:14:48] And if you think about the cost of climate change, what is that? In dollar terms, trillions of dollars, millions of lives. If we have the companies who are polluting actually pay a price for that, then we would change their incentives and generate hundreds of billions in new revenue that we could then apply to solving the problem. The tough truth of this is that the United States of America only accounts for about 15 percent of global emissions. [21:15:09] So even if we were to very aggressively move in a more renewable direction, if the other 85 percent is rising, then the earth will continue to warm. And we're already at the point of no return in many respects. What's happening in the rest of the world is that China is going to developing countries and saying, hey, great news, I've got a power plant for you. It burns coal. And then what does that country say? [21:15:32] Great, because they just want energy as cheaply as possible. So if we're going to curb those emissions, what we have to do is be at that table and say instead of taking that coal burning power plant from the Chinese, you should take these solar panels or these wind turbines and we will subsidize them to a point where they're actually cost competitive and a no brainer for you. We also have to start investing in protecting our communities. We already have climate refugees in the United States of America. I was in New Hampshire because I'm running for president. So you go to New Hampshire a lot. [21:16:00] And in Portsmouth, there's a shrimping business that went from millions of dollars to zero because all the shrimp died and the houses and buildings that are on that shoreline have started flooding regularly. So this is no longer speculative. This is with us right now. And instead of leaving Americans to their own devices to try and protect themselves from climate change, we should be investing tens, hundreds of billions of dollars right now to make our communities more resilient to the ravages of climate change. [21:16:26] If we spend the money now, we'll actually save money. The current American approach is to wait until the disaster happens and then try and clean it up. And that is not what you want to do with climate change here in California. You're seeing it with the forest fires that are. Dislocating. Tens, hundreds of thousands of people costing lives. Those forest fires are not an act of God. They're the result of the fact that climate change has made all of the underbrush in the forests, tinder boxes. [21:16:57] And we do not have the government resources to actually manage the hazards over time. We're actively managing less than 10 percent of U.S. forest land and clearing it of underbrush that would eventually. Cause fires that then end up spreading very, very quickly and wildly. So this is not an act of God. This is a failure of government. We need to dramatically improve our approach to forest management and make it so that we don't have forest fires and wildfires here in California. Year round, it's an existential crisis that we need to rise the occasion for. There's a proverb that says the best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. And the second best time is now. We should have done this 20 years ago. But as president, I will do it now. Thank you all very much. [21:17:43] Thank you. Andrea. So, Charlie, here is John. Also you. By the. We're just going to. ANDREW YANG & CORY BOOKER 211823 [Booker and Yang walk to the podium together] YANG>> Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Cory Booker! 211832 BOOKER>> That was like the days when you're opening act is much bigger than the person who's doing the concert. YANG>> That's very kind, brother. I've looked up to this man for a long time. And it's a privilege to consider you a friend. BOOKER>> Thank you very much. Q: What's your favorite thing about Booker? BOOKER>> Hold on, let me just tell you, this was a true promise that was made. He said that if either of us go to the White House, we will both shave our head. YANG>> You do make it look good. BOOKER>> Thank you man. Thank you so much. 211903 BOOKER>> Give it up, does the press corps applaud for Andrew Yang? This is the Yang gang. CORY BOOKER booker gaggle.mov [21:19:08] Hello, everybody. Welcome to New Jersey. Jets are giants. You're looking at the. This is breaking news right now because I don't think we have the Internet. Nobody can look it up. But you're looking at the Giants. [21:19:23] Nineteen eighty six pick for high school football player of the year. So I am loyal to the people that were loyal to me back in my high school football playing days. [21:19:33] That's the Giants. Oh, my gosh. All right. You lose one. All right. Yes, sir. [21:19:43] What's your name, sir? Kareem. And mockery about where are you from? From Kenya. And are you here living in California now? And won't be sure. Who do you write for? Who do you write for what press organization you represent? All right. African Warrior magazine. That sounds intimidating. [21:20:03] All right. What what what? What was like? [21:20:05] No. Sorry for interrupting. [21:20:16] My staff put you up to this. I'm not I'm not exaggerating, but you finish your question, cause I want to tell you what, this is literally what I'm saying all the time. Yes. So we're retreating from the continent in some substantive ways. And I was the ME and Jeff Flake were the leaders, Dem and Republican of the Africa subcommittee, the Foreign Relations Committee. And I'll never forget to your point, flying into Zimbabwe after Mugabe had been, let's call it overthrown, an embassy demagog. Well, we were going to meet with him to talk to him about human rights violations. Talk to him about free and fair elections. An American sanctions. But when we land to have this conversation about honoring things like human rights and free and fair elections, he's coming in the same day from China. And their message to him had nothing to do about human rights. Nothing new about free elections. It was a transactional relationship. There is a contest going on that we're seeing on the continent of Africa as well as around this globe between totalitarian governments, dictatorial governments and free democracies. And Africa is one of those points now where America should not be retreating. There were critical strategic national security issues in Africa. There were critical strategic human rights issues in Africa there. [21:21:32] There are things that we have a responsibility to be involved in. And this can't be a time where Donald Trump is pulling us out there. So I've been speaking up in a bipartisan way about that. And if I'm president, I'd states to the point of your question. We're going to have a robust Africa policy because it's in the best interests of America as well as the right thing on the planet. All right. As anybody else from a periodical with the word warrior in it, because I would like to not at call on you. Yes, sir. What's your name? I catch you. Don't identify yourself, Sergeant, from viewpoints. OK. [21:22:14] Petrol prices, correct? Yes. Yes. The question, why did you vote no on? [21:22:23] Well, first of all, there's a lot of junk on the Internet about that. And I wouldn't. Yeah. So I would actually not read the Intercept article, but go to the article entitled The Stupid War on Cory Booker. I would never, ever do anything to stop prescription drugs from coming in. Forget. So I did not vote against any measure that would have stopped that would have to stop. Prescription drugs from coming to our country. Absolutely not. And again, go to the student, Warren, Cory Booker, go to the fact check. That was done by, I think, The Washington Post. I have been all my life fighting for cheaper prescription drugs. I'm proud of it. And since I was a mayor, I was calling for importations from places like Canada. All right. [21:23:01] Yes. No question I had is. How are you going to restore Democratic? [21:23:15] And pull back against democratic backsliding. Pope, I'm sorry, hold back against democratic backsliding, backsliding and sliding. [21:23:23] How would you, as president hold back against that backsliding democratic? Can you be more specific? Because so with the rise of. Oh, boy. I'm in agreement and the rise. Country first. Politicians like Scenario and MAXINE Bernie. [21:23:48] How would you look on the global level? OK. So look. Sort of like I did my answer to my friend and fellow warrior or the first question, we are at a point in America where we're seeing this this president say he is an America first policy. But what it really means is America isolated and alone policy. He's turning his back on institutions and allies and attacking them. In fact, he he's a better relationship with people like Tati and Putin than he has with Merkel and Macron. We are a nation right now that has to understand that this world needs us to lead on issues from climate change to peace in the Middle East. And this pulling back from everything from the Paris Climate Accords all the way to the air. Iran anti nuclear deal is unacceptable. And so when I'm president United States, I'm going to restore America's partnerships with critical allies, because we are the strongest nation on the planet Earth. But our strength is multiplied and magnified when we stand with our allies. All right. I'm going to get some gender balance here, so please. And his Long Beach life, it sounds like it's like a well-being. It's like the law. It's a mood. It's it's OK. I understand. Are you living the Long Beach life yourself? How can somebody from New Jersey live the Long Beach life in Long Beach? Thank you for knowing. How did you know that? I didn't. New Jersey trivia. Did you know that the Eminem was invented in Newark, New Jersey, along along with patent leather? [21:25:21] Did you know that? [21:25:26] And finally, very importantly, did you know that also Shaquille O'Neal was invented in Newark, New Jersey? [21:25:33] Yeah. I mean, born, I guess, is a better way to put it. He was created there. OK. All right. And I do have some issues about the way Kobe treated Shaq here in California. Can we. Can we talk about that? Can we talk? I'm sorry. I'm sorry. Go ahead. [21:25:54] That's going to be for the rest of my life. You're soon dead as a cancer on the body of our nation. [21:26:06] It is. It is crushing this country. It is undermining our global competitiveness. Every other country, our competitors are lowering the cost of college. Germany between 0 and 4 percent of median income all the way to go to college. Canada, like seven percent in this country, is between 50 and 60 percent of median income to go to college. While this rest of the nation understands that the more you cultivate the genius of your country, the better success your country has economically. But we are saddling kids. It's a number one, pushing lots of young people away from college. But those are literally changing their behaviors as a generation from buying houses, getting married, making decisions like that. This has to stop and I will stop it. Number one, we are going to do the Debt Free College Act. We're gonna make that law so that we begin to have affordable college. Number two is we're going to stop the kind of games are being played like the federal government making billions of dollars of profit off of the loans to college students. That's going to end. And we're gonna reinvest those money in lowering and eliminating interest rates. And by the way you like, you can't with your car and can't with your mortgage. You should be able to refinance your college loans. And if you have if you have some act where you have to declare bankruptcy. Those should be dischargeable like other debts are. We are gonna do something. But the last thing I'll mention I mentioned from the stage is more innovative things that I've read proposing like baby bonds. What if every kid in America had a thousand dollars in a in a in a interest bearing account? And every year they get money placing that depending on the wealth of their parents, the lowest income kids would have upwards of fifty thousand dollars of wealth to invest in buying a home and starting a business or going to college. Look, I think that we should make R and I've been calling for this for a long time. We should be making our community colleges free. But I'm not interested in making and using taxpayer dollars to give Donald Trump's grandchildren freedom, freedom to go to college. I think we can have pathways to debt free college so that nobody's graduating was saddled with debt. We can achieve that in America. We can compete with our global peers and have pathways. But I want to say this. Two thirds of American kids don't go to college, and this conversation doesn't seem to include all young people in this country. We have got to make sure we have pathways to career success for everybody. And that means changing our economy to being far more emphasis on apprenticeship programs like our competitors do, because the same country I mentioned from Germany to Switzerland. They don't only have affordable college. They have robust apprenticeship programs that every young person has a pathway to a successful career. And that's what I'm gonna do as president. I'm going to stay. One more question. I'm going to. Did you want one more person over there? Because I was going over here. OK, we're gonna go to the person in blue. I'm sorry. My favorite color. Oh, my gosh. All right. I hope this is a vegan related question. You did. Welcome to our side. The vegan. [21:29:17] So far, Bernie Sanders only presidential. [21:29:28] Look, I. I'm on the Foreign Relations Committee and we were just talking about Zimbabwe. And literally, we have to understand, when you call something a coup in Africa, actually it triggers certain things to happen. So let me just tell you what I believe and let's not get into semantics that the people of Bolivia right now do not have representative government and they deserve to have a government where they get to express their democratic ideals, where they get to participate in elections and have self-determination, which we should have in Bolivia. [21:29:59] But. [21:30:08] Again, I am taking my information from the OAS and I'm going to say to you right now, the principle which we should be fighting for before arguing over semantics, a principle we should be fighting for as a country, should be going against corruption, dealing with poverty with our neighboring nations and making sure that our Latin American countries have robust access to free and fair elections and that the democratic principles are the ones, as the OAS says, the democratic principles are the ones that are paramount. [21:30:39] And we did it last night that he wearing the Democratic Party. [21:30:47] Look, I just want to say that I know the media and a lot of folks like to talk about left and right. But as a guy that lives in a low income inner city community, that's not the way my neighbors think when I'm sitting in the barbershop. Yes, I go to the barbershop when I'm when I'm sitting in the barber shop, having talks, talk conversations about real issues that affect real people's lives. People do not use left right. People talk about affordable childcare, affordable prescription drugs. They talk about having access to a great schools for their kids. And so what we're doing right now, creating these dynamics within the Democratic Party. We've got to be careful because whoever is the nominee, we have one shot to make Donald Trump a one term president. And so I'm not interested in delineating left or right or criticizing other folks. I will talk about the policy differences between us. They're real. Some people in the state don't believe in a carbon tax. I do. Some people in the stage don't believe in gun licensing. I do. Is that left or is that right? I don't know. I know that I got into politics in the 1990s running to be a city council person, one of the poorest census tracts in our country. I still live there. And what my folks want is progress. They're tired of a nation that somebody works. A full time jobs still need to go to my bodega and use food stamps. They're tired of a nation that seems to care more. [21:32:17] About. The deaths of some children. And not the kids are getting killed in communities like mine every day. [21:32:27] We have a criminal justice system, we're sitting here right now. We have a criminal justice system, as Bryan Stevenson says, it treats you better if you're rich and guilty than if you're poor, an innocent as we're sitting here right now. There are children in jail, in solitary confinement. [21:32:42] That if their parents had money, they wouldn't be there. That affects my neighborhood. [21:32:48] We sit comfortably by in a nation whose infrastructure is crumbling and you argue that hurts most. It hurts the kids that have to drink water coming from lead service lines. [21:32:58] The absurdity to be in a country where the most valuable natural resource we have is the genius of our children. And we have a nation where there are 3000 jurisdictions where children have more than twice the blood lead levels of Flint, Michigan. Is that left or right? Let's stop tearing each other down. Let's stop drawing artificial lines. 213322 I am tired in this election of hearing some people say, well, if this person gets elected, I can't support them. And then other people say, if this person gets elected, I can't support them. Are you kidding me? Donald Trump is the president of the United States of America. 213338 And dear God, if he gets another four years, in my community, lives depend on it. People are dying right now in this country because we have a president that every mass shooting comes along, he doesn't want to take action. He doesn't even see the people dying in my community. So I'm sorry. I'm happy to be in this field and I plan on winning, but the one thing I'm going to stop is us tearing each other down, because if I hear from a Democrat after this primary that they're not going to support the person, and they're gonna sit this one out. They need to go back and understand. King said it more eloquently than I did. Well, we have to repent for it. Not the vitriolic words and violent actions, the bad people. It's the appalling silence and inaction of the good people.

DNC CONVENTION DAY 1 PROGRAM FEED 930PM / HD
PROGRAM FEED FROM THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION AT THE WELLS FARGO CENTER IN PHILADELPHIA / EVA LONGORIA 21:32:29 >> Hello, Philadelphia! [ cheers ] Oh, man, I am so honored to be here tonight and I am proud to say I'm with her. [ cheers ] You know, like many of you, this election is very personal to me. I'm from a small town in south Texas and if you know your history, Texas used to be part of Mexico. Now, I'm ninth generation American. My family never crossed a border. The border crossed us. 21:33:20 So when Donald Trump calls us criminals and rapists, he's insulting American families. My father is not a criminal or rapist. In fact, he's a United States veteran. When Trump cruelly mocked a disabled reporter, he was also mocking my special need sister, Lisa, and many like her. When he said that a wife who works is a very dangerous thing, he not only insulted me, he insulted my mother, who worked as a special education teacher for 30 years, raised four children while being a wife.You know, I believe in the candidate who believes in all of us and that candidate is Hillary Clinton. 21:34:24 Hillary has spent her whole life fighting for all Americans from health care reform to equal pay for women to gun safety to protecting the economy. She is the most qualified presidential candidate ever. She's been fighting for us for decades and now it's time we fight for her. Now, I'm very proud to be part of that fight and I'm very proud to be here to introduce my dear friend Cory booker, but, but before I do, I want you to take a look at your convention, Philadelphia. 21:35:10 A Latina from south Texas is introducing the first black senator from New Jersey on the week we'll nominate our first woman candidate for president of the United States. Pretty great. So guess what, Donald, it turns out America is pretty great already. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome senator Cory booker. CORY BOOKER (NEW JERSEY) 21:36:02 Hello Philadelphia! Thank you! Thank you! [ cheers ] >> [ chant ] Cory! Cory! Cory! BOOKER>> Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much, thank you. 21:36:27 Two hundred forty years ago, our forefathers gathered in this city and they declared before the world that we would be a free and independent nation. Today, we gather here again, in challenging times, in this city, in this City of Brotherly Love, to reaffirm our values, before our nation and the whole world. Our purpose is not like theirs to start a great nation, but to ensure that we continue in the best of our traditions, and with humble homage to generations of patriots before, we put forth two great Americans - our nominees for President and Vice President: Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine! 21:37:32 Now looking back to our history, our founding fathers put forth founding documents that were indeed genius. But our founding documents were not genius because they were perfect. They were saddled with the imperfections and even the bigotry of the past. Native Americans were referred to as savages, black Americans were referred to as fractions of human beings, and women were not mentioned at all. 21:38:06 But those facts and other ugly parts of our history don't distract from our nation's greatness. In fact, I believe we are an even greater nation, not because we started perfect, but because every generation has successfully labored to make us a more perfect union. 21:38:31 [SHOT OF BILL CLINTON] BOOKER: Generations of heroic Americans have made America more inclusive, more expansive, and more just. Our nation was not founded because we all looked alike, or prayed alike, or descended from the same family tree. But our founders, in their genius, in this, the oldest constitutional democracy on the planet earth, they put forth the idea that all are created equal; that we all have inalienable rights. And upon this faithful foundation we built a great nation, and today, no matter who you are - rich or poor, Asian or white, man or woman, gay or straight, any religion or none at all - you are entitled to the full rights and responsibilities of citizenship. 21:39:36 In this city, our founders put forth a Declaration of Independence, but let me tell you, they also made a historic declaration of interdependence. They knew that if this country was to survive and thrive, we had to make an unusual and extraordinary commitment to each other. 21:40:03 Look, I respect and value the ideals of individualism and self-reliance. But rugged individualism didn't defeat the British, it didn't get us to the moon, it didn't build our nation's highways. Rugged individualism didn't map the human genome. We did that together. [ cheers and applause ] 21:40:28 And so, this is the high call of patriotism. Patriotism is love of country. But you can't love your country without loving your countrymen and your countrywomen. [ cheers and applause ] Now we don't always have to agree, but we must empower each other, we must find the common ground, and we must build bridges across our differences to pursue the common good. 21:41:04 Let me tell you, we can't devolve into a nation where our highest aspirations are that we just tolerate each other. We are not called to be a nation of tolerance. We are called to be a nation of love. That's why that last line in the Declaration of Independence says it so clearly. It says that we must, to make this nation work we must mutually pledge to each other our lives and our fortunes and our sacred honor. Tolerance is the wrong way. Tolerance says I am just going to stomach your right to be different. That if you disappear from the face of the earth, I am no better or worse off. 21:41:52 But love - love knows that every American has worth and value, that no matter what their background, no matter what their race or religion, or sexual orientation. Love, love recognizes that we need each other, that we as a nation are better together, that when we are divided we are weak, we decline, yet when we are united we are strong - invincible! 21:42:25 This -- [ cheers ] -- this, this is the understanding of love that's embodied in one of my favorite sayings, it's an African saying and it says: "If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together." This is the reason why I'm so motivated in this election. Because I believe this election is a referendum on who best embodies the leadership we need to go far, together. 21:43:09 Donald Trump isn't that leader. We've watched him try to get laughs at others' expense; try to incite fear at a time we need to inspire courage; try to rise in the polls by dragging our national conversation into the gutter. We've watched him mock, cruelly mock a journalist's disability. We've watched him demean the service of my Senate colleague, saying, "He's not a war hero, "He was a war hero because he was captured. Trump said I don't like people who get captured. Would he say that from POW's from WWII. Would he say that to POWs from Vietnam. Would he say that to the brave men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan risking capture or worse. That's not the commander in chief. 21:44:04 We've watched Donald Trump paint with a broad and divisive brush, saying that Mexican immigrants who came to America to build a better life in America are in his words "bringing crime, they're bringing drugs." He called many of them rapists. He said that an Indiana-born federal judge can't be trusted to do his job because of his Mexican ancestry - a statement that his fellow Republicans have described as racist. 21:44:39 We've watched Donald Trump, our children, our daughters, our nieces and grandkids have watched Donald Trump and heard him calling women degrading and demeaning names. "Dog." "Fat pig." "Disgusting." "Animal." It's a twisted hypocrisy when he treats other women in a manner he would never, ever accept from another man speaking about his daughters or his wife. In this great nation where our founders put a fundamental principle forward of religious freedom, he says ban all Muslims, don't let certain people into our America because of how they pray. 21:45:31 Now, I take particular interest in the fact that Trump says he would run our country like he has run his businesses. Well, I'm from Jersey -- cheers ] -- I'm from the great Garden State, and we've seen the way he leads in Atlantic City. He got rich while his companies declared multiple bankruptcies. Yet without remorse, even as people got hurt by his failures, he bragged, and I quote, "The money I took out of there was incredible." Yes, he took out a lot of cash but he stiffed contractors - many of them small businesses, refusing to pay them for the work that they'd done. You know, we in America have seen enough of a handful of people growing rich at the cost of our nation descending into crisis. [ applause ] 21:46:33 America, at our best, we stand up to bullies and we fight those who seek to demean and degrade other Americans. In times of crisis we don't abandon our values - we double down on them. [ cheers ] [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] Even amidst of the crises of the Civil War, Lincoln stood up and called out to all of our country saying, "With malice toward none and charity toward all." This is our history. THis is the history that I was taught. 21:47:14 My parents never wanted my brother and I to get too heady. Gratitude was to be my gravity, so they never stopped reminding my brother and I that our blessings sprang from countless ordinary Americans who showed extraordinary acts of kindness, decency, and love; people who struggled, and sweat and bled for our rights, people paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we all enjoy. I was told that we can't pay those Americans back for their colossal acts of service, but we have an obligation to pay it forward to others through our service and sacrifice. 21:47:59 I support Hillary Clinton because these are her values, and she has been paying it forward her entire life. Long before she got in politics. [CHANTING] She was in Massachusetts, going door-to-door collecting stories of children with disabilities. In South Carolina, she fought to reform the juvenile justice system so children wouldn't be thrown into adult prisons. In Alabama, she helped expose remnants of segregation in schools. In Arkansas, she started a legal aid clinic to make sure poor folks could get their day in court. 21:48:42 She's always fought for people, and she's always delivered. That's why we trust her to fight, and deliver, for us as President. We have a Presidential nominee in Clinton who knows that, in a time of stunningly wide disparities of wealth in our nation, that America's greatness must not be measured by how many millionaires and billionaires we have, but how few people we have living in poverty. 21:49:13 Hillary knows when workers make a fair wage, it doesn't just help their families, it builds a stronger, more durable economy that expands opportunity and makes all of us Americans wealthier. She knows that in a global knowledge-based economy, the country that out-educates the world will out-earn the world, out-innovate the world, and will lead the world. She knows that debt-free college is not a gift, it's not charity, it's an investment. It represents the best of our values, the best of our history, the best of our party: all of our shared ideas and values together. 21:49:56 Hillary Clinton knows that when we have paid family leave, this is something that must happen because when a parent doesn't have to choose between being there for a sick kid and paying rent, or when a single mom earns an equal wage for equal work, it empowers the most important building block in all our nation and that is the family. 21:50:26 Hillary Clinton knows that security doesn't come from scapegoating people because of their religion, alienating our allies, stoking fear and pointing fingers. It comes when we band together to face down and defeat our common enemy. 21:50:42 And she knows something that I fight for everyday: that our criminal justice system desperately needs reform. >> [ chant ] Black lives matter! Black lives matter! BOOKER>> That we need to bring back fairness to a system that still, as Professor Bryan Stevenson says, treats you better if you are rich and guilty than poor and innocent. 21:51:03 [ chant still happening ] And she knows that we can be a nation that both believes that police officers deserve more respect, they deserve more support, more cooperation, and love - and believes that a black twenty-something black protester deserves to be valued, deserves to be heard, [ chant immediately seems to stop ] that they should be listened to with a more courageous empathy, and that change is needed in the system. [ cheers ] 21:51:33 And Hillary Clinton knows what Donald Trump betrays time and again in this campaign: that we are not a zero-sum nation, it is not you or me, it is not one American against another American. It is you and I, together, interdependent, interconnected with one single interwoven destiny. 21:51:58 When we respect each other, when we stand up for each other, when we work together against our challenges, against our neighbors' challenges - be it a neighbor with a beautiful special needs child or one struggling with the ugly disease of addiction - when we as Americans help them, when we show compassion and grace, when we evidence our truth, that we are the UNITED States of America, one nation, under God, indivisible, that is when we are stronger. That is when we go from an already great America to an even greater America. [ cheers ] [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] 21:52:40 Now let me tell you right now, when Trump spews insulting and demeaning words about our fellow Americans, I think of the poem by Maya Angelou. Ya'll know it, you know how it begins: "You may write me down in history / With your bitter, twisted lies, / You may trod me in the very dirt / But still, like dust, I'll rise." 21:53:10 Well ya'll know it -- [ cheers ] -- ya'll know it. [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] This, this , this captures our American history: 240 years ago, an English King said he would crush our rebellion, but Americans from around our nation joined the fight. From Bunker Hill to the Battle of Trenton, they stood, and so many fell giving their lives in support of our daring declaration that: America, we will rise. 21:53:46 This is our history, this is our history. Escaped slaves, knowing that liberty is not secure for some until it's secure for all, sometimes hungry, often hunted, in dark woods and deep swamps, they looked up to the North Star and said with a determined whisper, America, we will rise. 21:54:12 Immigrants, risking their lives in times of sweatshops and child labor, they organized labor unions and devoted to lifting the tired, the poor and the huddled masses - with the fiercest of grit, they shouted so all could hear: America, we will rise. 21:54:36 King pointed to a mountain top, Kennedy pointed to the moon - from Seneca Falls to those who stood at Stonewall Inn, giants before us said in a chorus of conviction that America, we will rise. 21:54:53 My fellow Americans, my fellow Americans we cannot fall into complacency or indifference about this election, because still the only thing necessary for evil to be triumphant is for good people to do nothing, you know the saying. My fellow Americans, we cannot be seduced into cynicism about our politics, because cynicism is a refuge for cowards and this nation is and must always be the home of the brave. We are the United States of America. We will not falter or fail. We will not retreat or surrender - we will not surrender our values, we will not surrender our ideals, we will not surrender the moral high ground. 21:55:40 Here in Philadelphia, let us declare again that we will be a free people. Free from fear and intimidation. Let us declare again that we are a nation of interdependence, and that in America love always trumps hate. [cheers and applause] Let us declare, so that generations yet unborn can hear us. We are the United States of America; our best days are ahead of us. 21:56:15 And together, with Hillary Clinton as our President, America, we will rise. God Bless America. Let us rise, together. God Bless America. CHERYL LANKFORD 21:59:10 When you lose a spouse, you know that your life will change forever. You know that it won't be easy. But I didn't expect that on top of grieving the loss of my husband and trying to take care of my baby, I would also be the victim of a scam. You just saw what happened to me. How Trump University cheated me out of the money I received after my husband's death. How they broke their promises. How they stopped taking my calls. How the whole thing was a lie. 21:59:45 By conning me out of the money the military gave me after my husband died, I felt like trump University was disrespecting Jonathan's memory. I was furious. Frightened. And the truth is, I was embarrassed. The worst part is that I wasn't the only victim of Donald Trump's greed, far from it. He preyed on vulnerable people like military widows and the elderly. 22:00:16 He made millions of dollars off of people like me. Millions. He cheated more than 5,000 students. Hardworking middle class folks. Teachers. Police officers. Even veterans. These are folks just like me who didn't have a lot, but who were told that if they paid for Donald Trump's program, they might be able to make a better living. Here's a guy who was born rich and who has all the money in the world and there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, I signed up for trump University because I thought I could learn something from him. But then he decided to make himself even richer. By cheating working people who had nothing to spare. 22:01:13 What kind of man does that? It's not easy for me to get up here and tell my story. For a long time, I didn't tell anybody. Not even my family or my friends. But I'm here because America deserves to know the truth. This election isn't about Democrat versus Republican It's about right versus wrong. It's about someone who helps ordinary people no matter what it takes versus someone who helps himself no matter who it hurts. 22:02:02 Donald Trump made big promises about Trump University, and I was fooled into believing him. Now, he's making big promises about America. Please, don't make that same mistake. MICHELLE OBAMA 22:05:36 Oh. Thank you, all. Thank you so much. You know, it's hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president. Remember how I told you about his character and conviction, his decency and his grace. The traits that we've seen every day that he's served our country in the white house. [ cheers ] 22:06:22 I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world, and during our time in the white house, we've had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women. A journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington, when they set off for their first day at their new school. I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns. And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done. [ laughter ] 22:07:15 See, because at that moment, I realized that our time in the white house would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them. That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight. How we urge them to ignore those who question their father's citizenship or faith. How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. 22:08:03 How we explain that one someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don't stoop to their level. No, our motto is, "When they go low, we go high." [ cheers ] With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models, and let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter. Not just to our girls, but the children across this country. 22:08:44 Kids who tell us, I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school. Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope, and he wondered, is my hair like yours? And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls, that is what we're deciding. Not Democrat or Republican. Not left or right. No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives. [ cheers and applause, shot of woman crying ] 22:09:30 And I am here tonight because in this election, there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility. Only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend, Hillary Clinton. [ cheers, SHOT OF BILL STANDING AND CLAPPING ] That's right. 22:10:04 See, I trust -- I trust Hillary to lead this country because I've seen her lifelong devotion to our nation's children. Not just our own daughter who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion. Kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they'll ever afford college. Kids whose parents don't speak a word of English but dream of a better life. Kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be. 22:10:44 You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives. Advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer. Fighting for children's health care as first lady and for quality childcare in the senate. And when she didn't win the nomination eight years ago, she didn't get angry or disillusioned. [ cheers ] She -- Hillary did not -- Hillary did not pack up and go home because as a true public servant, Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments. 22:11:44 So, she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe. And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs. But here's the thing, what I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. 22:12:25 And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life. [ cheers ] And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that's what I want. I want someone with the proven strength to persevere. Someone who knows this job and takes it seriously. Someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white and cannot be boiled down to 140 characters -- 22:13:03 Look, because -- [ cheers, SHOT OF BILL ] because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can't make snap decisions. You can't have a thin skin or tendency to lash out. You need to be steady and measured and well informed. [ cheers and applause ] I want a president with a record of public service. Someone whose life work shows our children that we don't chase fame and fortune for ourselves. 22:13:53 We fight to give everyone a chance to succeed. And we give back even when we're struggling, ourselves, because we know that there is always someone more soft, but there, for the grace of god, go I. I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters. A president who truly believes in the vision that our founders put forth all those years ago, that we are all created equal. Each a beloved part of the great American story. And when crisis hits, we don't turn against each other. 22:14:35 No, we listen to each other We lean on each other because we are always stronger together. And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be, and that's why in this election, I'm with her. You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only. It's about leaving something better for our kids. That's how we've always moved this country forward, by all of us coming together on behalf of our children. 22:15:33 Folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class because they know it takes a village. Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty. Police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe. People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter, in that club. [ cheers and applause ] Leaders like Tim kaine, [ cheers ] who show our kids what decency and devotion look like. 22:16:28 Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her. That is the story of this country. The story that has brought me to this stage tonight. The story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today, I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. 22:17:20 And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women, playing with their dogs on the white house lawn. [ cheers ] And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States. [ cheers ] 22:18:07 So look. So, don't let anyone ever tell you that this country isn't great, that somehow we need to make it great again, because this right now is the greatest country on Earth. And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth. A leader who is worthy of my girls' promise and all our kids' promise. A leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children. 22:18:58 So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best. We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical. No, hear me. Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago. [ cheers ] We need to knock on every door. We need to get out every vote. We need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America. So let's get to work. Thank you, all. God bless. JOSEPH KENNEDY III 22:21:07 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. My first day of law school, my very first class. The goal escape unscathed. Not three seconds in and I get the first question, Mr. Kennedy what is the definition of assumpsit? Huh Mr. Kennedy, you realize assumpsit is the very first word in your reading? Yeah. I actually circled it because I didn't know what it meant. 22:21:56 Mr. Kennedy, do you own a dictionary? That's what people do when they don't know what a word means, they look it up in a dictionary. I never showed up unprepared for professor Elizabeth Warren ever again. [ cheers and applause ] She was the toughest teacher on campus, but the wait list for her class was a mile long. She pushed us hard. She brought out our best. She believed in us. And she believed in the law, not as an abstraction, but as a living force with the power to make life better or worse. 22:22:43 She taught us that it's impactly not classrooms or textbooks, but in a society where wages had not budged in 40 years. Where two-and-a-half million children are homeless, where we can expected one in three black men to go to prison. Our laws have human consequences. That fact fuelled a law school professor to on this country's most entrenched financial interest. It brought a middle class champion back to Massachusetts senate seat and it led a first term U.S. Senator become our government gutcheck. In a sea of power and privilege senator Warren is an anchor for the voiceless and victimized. 22:23:35 She asks more from all of us because she believes deeply in each of us. That faith in our country and the American people is the very foundation of our democratic party. It echos through this arena tonight and to every classroom, living room, and hearing room that senator Elizabeth Warren has ever touched. Ladies and gentlemen, it's my honor to introduce to you, your senator, my senator, our senator, senator Elizabeth Warren. [ Applause ] ELIZABETH WARREN 22:24:34 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Joe and thank you Massachusetts for the great honor of serving as your senator. Thank you, guys. What a night. Wow! Michelle Obama, Cory booker! [ Applause ] And we still have Bernie coming up Bernie reminds us what Democrats fight for every day, thank you Bernie. Thank you. 22:25:25 Now, we are here tonight because America faces a choice, the choice of a new president. On one side is a man who inherited a fortune from his father and kept it going by cheating people, by skipping out on debts, a man who has never sacrificed anything for anyone, a man who cares only for himself every minute of every day. On the other side is one of the smartest, toughest, most tenacious people on this planet, a woman who fights for children, for women, for health care, for human rights, a woman who fights for all of us and who is strong enough to win those fights. 22:26:16 We're here today because our choice is Hillary Clinton. I'm with Hillary. I'm with Hillary. [Applause ] I'm with Hillary. [CHANTING WE TRUSTED YOU] 22:26:32 You know, for me this choice is personal. It's about who we are as a people. It's about what kind of a country we want to be. I grew up in Oklahoma. My daddy ended up as a maintenance man, and my mom worked a minimum wage job at sears. My three brothers served in the military. The oldest was career, 288 combat missions in Vietnam, the second worked construction and the third started his own small business. Me, I got married at 19, graduated from a commuter college in Texas that cost $50 a semester. 22:27:16 The way I see it, I'm a janitor's daughter who became a public schoolteacher, a professor and a United States state senator, America is truly a country of opportunity. Truly. [ Applause ] I am deeply grateful to that America. I believe in that America. But I'm worried. I'm worried that my story is locked in the past, worried that opportunity is slipping away for people who work hard and play to the rules. I mean look around, Americans bust their tails, some working two or three jobs, but wages stay flat, meanwhile the basic cost of making it from month to month keep going up, housing, health care, child care, the costs are out of sight. 22:28:09 Young people are getting crushed by student loans. Working people are in debt. Seniors can't stretch a social security check to cover the basics. And even families who are okay today worry it could all fall apart tomorrow This is not right. It is not. And here's is the thing, America isn't going broke. The stock market is breaking records, corporate profits are at all-time highs. CEOs makes tens of millions of dollars. 22:28:50 There's lots of wealth in America, but it isn't trickling down to hardworking families like yours Does anyone here have a problem with that? [ cheers ] Yeah, well I do too. People get it. The system is rigged. You know -- [ cheers ] -- it's true. Now, so-called experts claim America is in trouble because both political parties in Washington refuse to compromise, gridlock, that is just flat wrong. Washington works great for those at the top. 22:29:36 When giant companies wanted more tax loopholes, Washington got it done. When huge energy companies wanted to tear up our environment, Washington got it done. When enormous Wall Street banks wanted new regulatory loopholes, Washington got it done. No gridlock there. But try to do something, anything for working people and you'll have a fight on your hands. Democrats have taken on those fights, that's what we do. [ Applause ] 22:30:13 Democrats fought to get health insurance for more Americans. Democrats fought for a strong consumer agency so big banks can't cheat people. We fought, we won and we improved the lives of millions of people. Thank you, Barack Obama. [ Applause ] Yes, we won, but Republicans and lobbyists battled us every step of the way. Five years later, that consumer agency has returned $11 billion to families who were cheated, and Republicans, Republicans, they're still trying to kill it. 22:31:04 Now look, I'm not someone who thinks that Republicans are always wrong and Democrats are always right. There's enough blame to go around. But there is a huge difference between people fighting for a level-playing field and the people fighting to keep the system rigged. Look at congress, since the Republicans took over. Democrats proposed refinancing student loans and Republicans, they said, no. Democrats proposed ending tax breaks for corporations that ship jobs overseas and Republicans, they said, no. 22:31:45 Democrats proposed raising the minimum wage and Republicans, they said, no. So to every Republican in congress who said no, this November, the American people are coming for you. [ Cheers and Applause ] Yup. Yes. That's right. 22:3219 And where was Donald Trump? In all these fights, not once did he lift a finger to help working people. Why would he? His whole life has been about taking advantage of that rigged system. Time after time, he prayed on working people, people in debt, people who had fallen on hard times. He's conned them. He's defrauded them and he's ripped them off. Look at his history. Donald Trump said he was excited for the 2008 housing crash that devastated millions of American families because he thought it would help him scoop up more real estate. 22:33:07 Donald Trump set up a fake university to make money by cheating people and taking their life savings. Donald Trump goes on and on and on about being a successful businessman, but he filed business bankruptcy six times, always to protect his own money and stick the investors and contractors with the bill. Donald Trump hired plumbers and painters and construction workers to do hard labor for his businesses, then he told them to take only a fraction of what he owed or fight his lawyers in court for years. What type of a man acts like this. What kind of man roots for an economic crash that cost millions of people of their jobs, their homes, their life savings. What kind of a man cheats students, investors, cheats workers. 22:34:14 Well I'll tell you what kind of a man, a man who must never be president of the united States. [Applause] Never. And we've got the leaders to make it happen, Hillary Clinton and Tim kaine. They're going to make it happen. [ cheers ] Donald Trump knows that the American people are angry, in fact, so obvious, he can see it knows that the American people are angry, in fact, so obvious, he can see it from the top of the trump tower. 22:35:10 So now he's insisting that he and he alone can fix the rig system. Last week he spoke for more than an hour on the biggest stage that he's ever had. Other than talking about building a stupid wall which will never get built -- [ applause ] -- Other than that wall, did you hear any actual ideas? [ No ] Did you hear even one solid proposal from Trump for increasing incomes? [ No ] Or improving your kids' education? [ No ] Or creating even one single good-paying job? [ No ] Let's face it, Donald Trump has no real plans for jobs or college kids or for seniors, no plans to make anything great for anyone, except the rich guys like Donald Trump. [ Applause ] 22:36:14 Just look at his ideas. Donald Trump wants to get rid of the federal minimum wage. Donald Trump wants to roll back financial regular laces and turn Wall Street loose to wreck our economy again. And Donald Trump has a tax plan to give multimillionaires and billionaires like himself an average tax cut of $1.43 million a year. [ Boo ] 22:36:43 You're struggling to put your kids through college, and Donald Trump thinks he needs a million dollar tax break. Trump's entire campaign is just one more late night trump infomercial. Hand over your money, your jobs your children's future and the great trump hot air machine will reveal all the answers. [ Applause ] And for one low low price, he'll even throw in a goofy hat. [Laughter ] And here is the really ugly underside to his pitch, trump thinks he can win votes by fanning the flames of fear and hatred, by turning neighbor against neighbor, by persuading you that the real problem in America is your fellow Americans, people who don't look like you or don't talk like you or don't worship like you. 22:37:48 He even picked a vice president famous for trying to make it legal to openly discriminate against gays and lesbians. That's Donald Trump's America, an America of fear and hate, an America where we all break apart. Whites against blacks and Latinos, Christians against muslims and jews, straight against gay, everyone against immigrants, race religion heritage and gender, the more factions the better. But ask yourself this, when white workers in Ohio are pitted against black workers in north Carolina or Latino workers in Florida, who really benefits? Divide and conquer is an old story in America. 22:38:40 Dr. Martin Luther king knew it. After his March from Selma to Montgomery, he spoke of how segregation was created to keep people divided. Instead of higher wages for workers, Dr. King described how poor whites in the south were fed Jim Crow which told a poor white worker that "No matter how bad off he was, at least he was a white man better than the black man." Racial hatred was part of keeping the powerful on top. [ Applause ] 22:39:20 When we turn on each other, bankers can run our economy for Wall Street, oil companies can fight off clean energy and giant corporations can ship the last good jobs overseas. When we turn on each other, rich guys like Trump can push through more tax breaks for themselves. And then we'll never have enough money to support our schools or rebuild our highways or invest in our kids' future. When we turn on each other, we can't unite to fight back against a rigged system. [ Applause ] 22:39:59 Well I've got news for Donald Trump, the American people are not falling for it. [ cheers ] We've seen this ugliness before and we are not going to be Donald Trump's hate-filled America, not now, not ever. This is about our values, about our shared-values with our candidates, Hillary Clinton and Tim kaine. [ Applause ] Let's talk about those values. We believe that no matter who you are, no matter where you're from, no matter who you love equal means equal, Hillary will fight to make sure discrimination has no place in America and we're with her. 22:41:03 We believe that no one no one who works full time should live in poverty. Hillary will fight for raising the minimum wage, fair scheduling, paid family and medical leave and we're with hear . [Applause ] We believe every kid in America should have a chance for a great education, without getting crushed by debt. Hillary will fight for refinancing student loans and debt free college. We are with her. And we believe that after a life-time of hard work, seniors should be able to retire with dignity. Hillary will fight to expand social security, strengthen medicare and protect our retirement accounts, and we're with her. [ Applause ] 22:42:08 We believe that oil companies shouldn't call the shots in Washington, that science matters, that climate change is real. Hillary will fight to preserve this Earth for our children and grandchildren and we're with her. We believe, and I can't believe I have to say this in 2016 -- in equal pay for equal work and a woman's right to control over her own body,, Hillary will fight for women, and we're with her. [ cheers ] That's right. We believe, we don't need weaker rules on Wall Street. We need stronger rules and when big banks get too risky, break them up. Hillary will fight to hold big banks accountable, and we're with her. 22:43:11 And we believe that the united States should never, never sign trade deals that help giant corporations but leave workers in the dirt. Hillary will fight for American workers and we're with her. Okay. Just one more, we believe we must get big money out of politics and root out corruption. Hillary will fight to overturned citizens united and return this government to the people. 22:43:56 If you believe that America must work for all of us, not just for the rich and powerful, if you believe that we must reject the politics of fear and division, if you believe that we are stronger together, then let's work our hearts out to make Hillary Clinton the next president of the United States. [ Applause ] Thank you. KEITH ELLISON (MN) 22:45:00 Hello democrats! [ cheers ] You know, tonight, tonight my Democrats, we are -- we are united around the most Progressive platform in history, the most Progressive platform in history, a 15-dollar an hour minimum wage, banning private prisons, expanding social security, the public option, and debt free college tuition. That's the platform that Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton wrote together. [ cheers ] And that's the platform -- that's the platform that we can make the law of the land if we stand together, if we work together and if we vote together on November 8th. 22:46:11 You know trump, he wants to divide and conquer us with his anti muslim, anti-mexican, anti-worker message. They don't want us to vote They want to push voter I.D. Laws that black and Latino voters, Paul Rand won't even allow the vote to restore the voting rights act. You know, we must push back. Voting is not voting is not a protest. It is a surrender. When they bring the fear, we bring the courage. When they bring the division, we've got to bring the unity, everybody. 22:47:03 As a proud, and I said proud Bernie Sanders' supporter, I will always remember feeling the bern in Minnesota. There's my minnesotans over there. 6,000 in Duluth, 14,000 in Saint Paul, Bernie sparked the beginning of a revolution, y'all. He packed them in from Davenport to Detroit -- to your town and mine. 13 million Americans voted their progressive values and millions more made an investment in building that movement $27 at a time. 22:47:56 You know together, together we call for climate justice. We call for racial justice We call for wage justice, you know what, we made our voices heard. Together, Democrats, we will make our voices heard in November when we defeat Donald Trump. And elect Hillary Rodham Clinton the next president of the united States of America. [ cheers and applause ] 22:48:35 But tonight, tonight -- let us raise our voices in gratitude to the man who has helped make this great party greater than ever, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Bernie Sanders. BERNIE SANDERS WALKS ON 22:50:09 SPEAKS AT 22:53:02 [About 3 minutes of cheering before he can speak] 22:50:49 [ SHOT OF CROWD WITH BERNIE SIGNS ] 23:53:02 It is an honor to be here tonight and to be following in the footsteps of my good friend Elizabeth Warren and to be here tonight to thank Michelle Obama for her incredible service to our country. She has made all of us proud. 23:53:35 Let me begin by thanking the hundreds of thousands of Americans who actively participated in our campaign as volunteers--thank you. Let me thank the 2.5 million Americans who helped fund our campaign with an unprecedented 8 million individual campaign contributions. 22:54:16 Anyone know what that average contribution was? >> $27! SANDERS>> That's right. $27. And let me thank the 13 million Americans who voted for the political revolution, [ cheers and applause ] giving us the 1,846 pledged delegates here tonight. [ cheers and applause ] 22:55:08 >> [ chant ] Bernie! Bernie! And delegates, thank you for being here and thank you for all the work you've done. I look forward -- [ cheers ] -- I look forward to your votes during the roll call tomorrow night. [ cheers and applause ] 22:56:03 And let me offer a special thanks to the people of my own state of Vermont--who have sustained me and supported me as a mayor, congressman, senator and presidential candidate. 22:56:27 And to my family - my wife Jane, our four kids and seven grandchildren -thank you very much. I understand that many people here in this convention hall and around the country are disappointed about the final results of the nominating process. I think it's fair to say that no one is more disappointed than I am. But to all of our supporters - here and around the country - I hope you take enormous pride in the historical accomplishments we have achieved. 22:57:27 Together, my friends, we have begun a political revolution to transform America and that revolution - our revolution - continues. Election days come and go. But the struggle of the people to create a government which represents all of us and not just the 1 percent [ cheers ] - a government based on the principles of economic, social, racial and environmental justice - that struggle continues. 22:58:34 And I look forward to being part of that struggle with you. Let me be as clear as I can be. This election is not about, and has never been about, Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump, or Bernie Sanders or any of the other candidates who sought the presidency. This election is not about political gossip. It's not about polls. It's not about campaign strategy. It's not about fundraising. It's not about all the things that the media spends so much time discussing. [ cheers and applause ] 22:59:34 This election is about - and must be about - the needs of the American people and the kind of future we create for our children and grandchildren. This election is about ending the 40-year decline of our middle class, the reality that 47 million men, women and children live in poverty. It is about understanding that if we do not transform our economy, our younger generation will likely have a lower standard of living than their parents. This election is about ending the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality in America today. [ cheers ] >> [ chant ] 99%! 99%! 23:01:00 It is not moral., it is not acceptable and it is not sustainable that the top one-tenth of one percent now own almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent. [ boos ] Or that the top 1 percent in recent years has earned 85 percent of all new income. That is unacceptable. That must change. [ boos ] This election is about remembering where we were 7 1/2 years ago when President Obama came into office after eight years of Republican trickle-down economics. 23:02:03 The Republicans want us to forget that as a result of the greed, recklessness and illegal behavior on Wall Street, our economy was in the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression. That's where we were. That is where we were. Some 800,000 people a month were losing their jobs. 800 thousand people. We were running up a record-breaking deficit of $1.4 trillion and by the way, the world's financial system was on the verge of collapse. That's where we were when President Obama came into office. Well, we have come a long way in the last 7 1/2 years, and I thank President Obama and Vice President Biden. [ cheers and applause, SHOT OF WARREN CLAPPING ] I thank them for their leadership in pulling us out of that terrible recession. 22:03:18 Yes, we have made progress, but I think we can all agree that much, much more needs to be done. This election is about which candidate understands the real problems facing this country and has offered real solutions - not just bombast, not just fear-mongering, not just name-calling and divisiveness. We need leadership in this country which will improve the lives of working families, the children, the elderly, the sick and the poor. 22:04:16 We need leadership which brings our people together and makes us stronger - not leadership which insults Latinos, insults Muslims, and women, African-Americans and veterans - and seeks to divide us up. By these measures, any objective observer will conclude that - based on her ideas and her leadership - Hillary Clinton must become the next president of the United States. [ cheers and non-cheers ] 23:05:26 The choice -- >> [ chant ] Hillary! Hillary! [ SHOT OF WOMAN SCREAMING HOLDING UP BERNIE SIGN ] 23:05:45 SANDERS>> This election -- this election -- this election is about a single mother, a single mom mom I saw in Nevada who, with tears in her eyes, told me that she was scared to death about the future because she and her daughter were not making it on the $10.45 an hour she was earning. This election is about that woman and the millions of other workers in this country who are struggling to survive on totally inadequate wages. 23:06:34 Hillary Clinton understands that if someone in this country works 40 hours a week, that person should not be living in poverty. She understands that we must raise the minimum wage to a living wage. And she is determined to create millions of new jobs by rebuilding our crumbling infrastructure - our roads, bridges, water systems and wastewater plants. But her opponent - Donald Trump - well, he has a very different view. 23:07:35 He does not support raising the federal minimum wage of $7.25 an hour - a starvation wage. While Donald Trump believes in huge tax breaks for billionaires, he believes that states should actually have the right to lower the minimum wage below $7.25. 23:08:14 Brothers and sisters this election is about overturning Citizens United. [ SHOT OF BILL ]Citizens United is one of the worst Supreme Court decisions in the history of our country. That decision allows the wealthiest people in America, like the billionaire Koch brothers, to spend hundreds of millions of dollars buying elections and, in the process, undermine American democracy. 23:09:12 Hillary Clinton will nominate justices to the Supreme Court who are prepared to overturn Citizens United and end the movement toward oligarchy that we are seeing in this country. Her Supreme Court appointments will also defend a woman's right to choose, workers' rights, the rights of the LGBT community, the needs of minorities and immigrants and the government's ability to protect our environment. 23:10:16 If you don't believe that this election is important, if you think you can sit it out, take a moment to think about the Supreme Court justices that Donald Trump would nominate and what that would mean to civil liberties, equal rights and the future of our country. 23:10:46 This election is about the thousands of young people I have met all over this country -- [ a scream, cheers ] the thousands I have met, who have left college deeply in debt, and tragically the many others who cannot afford to go to college. During the primary campaign, Secretary Clinton and I both focused on this issue but with somewhat different approaches. Recently, however, we have come together on a proposal that will revolutionize higher education in America. [ cheers and applause ] It will guarantee, guarantee that the children of any family this country with an annual income of $125,000 a year or less - 83 percent of our population - will be able to go to a public college or university tuition free. 23:12:21 That proposal also substantially reduces student debt. This election is about climate change, the great environmental crisis facing our planet, and the need to leave this world in a way that is healthy and habitable for our children and future generations. Hillary Clinton is listening to the scientists who tell us that - unless we act boldly and transform our energy system in the very near future - there will be more drought, more floods, more acidification of the oceans, more rising sea levels. She understands we can create hundreds of thousands of good-paying jobs transforming our energy system. 23:13:38 Donald Trump? Well, like most Republicans, he chooses to reject science. [ boos ] He believes that climate change is a "hoax," no need to address it. Hillary Clinton understands that a president's job is to worry about future generations, not the profits of the fossil fuel industry. This campaign is about moving the United States toward universal health care and reducing the number of people who are uninsured or under-insured. Hillary Clinton wants to see that all Americans have the right to choose a public option in their health care exchange. 23:14:44 She believes that anyone 55 or older should be able to opt in to Medicare. And she wants to see millions more Americans gain access to primary health care, dental care, mental health counseling, low-cost prescription drugs through a major expansion of community health centers. And What is Donald Trump's position on health care? No surprise there. Same old, same old Republican contempt for working families. He wants to abolish the Affordable Care Act, throw 20 million people off of the health insurance [ boos ] and cut Medicaid for lower-income Americans. 23:15:44 Hillary Clinton also understands that millions of seniors, disabled vets and others are struggling with the outrageously high cost of prescription drugs and the fact that Americans pay the highest prices in the world for the medicine we use. She knows that Medicare must negotiate drug prices with the pharmaceutical industry and that drug companies should not be making billions in profits when one out of five Americans are unable to afford the medicine they need. The greed of the drug companies must end. 23:16:45 This election is about the leadership we need to pass comprehensive immigration reform and repair a broken criminal justice system. It's about making sure that young people in this country are in good schools and at good jobs, not rotting in jail cells. Hillary Clinton understands that we have to invest in education and jobs for our young people, not more jails or incarceration. In these stressful times for our country, this election must be about bringing our people together, not dividing us up.

DNC CONVENTION DAY 1 PODIUM HEAD ON 9PM / HD
HEAD ON PODIUM SHOT FROM THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL CONVENTION AT THE WELLS FARGO CENTER IN PHILADELPHIA / 21:02:22 [ VIDEO PLAYS ] ANASTASIA SOMOZA 21:04:00 I first met Hillary as first lady on a visit to the white house. I was 9 years old and I listened to her and my mom discuss health care and early intervention for children with disabilities. [ cheers and applause ] Over the past 23 years, she has continued to serve as a friend and mentor, championing my inclusion and access to classrooms, higher education and the work force. She has never lost touch with people like me. She has invested in me, she believes in me and in a country where 56 million Americans with disabilities so often feel invisible, Hillary Clinton sees me. 20:05:11 She sees me as a strong woman, a young professional, a hard worker and the proud daughter of immigrants. My father from Nicaragua and my mother from Ireland. She has shown me that all these aspects of my identity are strengths which will help me effect change. I fear the day we elect a president who defines being American in the narrowest possible terms, who shouts, bullies and profits off of vulnerable Americans. 21:06:00 Donald Trump has shown us who he really is and I honestly feel bad for anyone with that much hate in their heart. I know we will show each other and the world who we really are in November when we choose genuine strength and thoughtful leadership over fear and division. Donald Trump doesn't see me. He doesn't hear me. And he definitely doesn't speak for me. [ cheers and applause ] 21:06:50 I am confident that as our president, Hillary will do everything in her power to promote the rights, empowerment and humanity of all Americans. [ cheers ] She knows that when we support access to education and employment opportunities for absolutely everyone, more of us will be able to live happy, independent lives and to promote, build, and contribute to this great country. 21:07:31 As president, Hillary Clinton will continue fighting and inspiring us all with her (?) and tireless efforts on our behalf. On the eve of the 26th anniversary of the Americans With Disabilities Act, I'm proud to be with you, Hillary. Thank you for showing me how to live boldly with a courageous heart. AL FRANKEN AND SARAH SILVERMAN 21:14:57 FRANKEN>> Remember me? I'm senator Al Franken and this past year, I have been #I'mwithher. SILVERMAN>> I'm Sarah Silverman. And this past year, I've been feeling the Bern. Relax. I put some cream on it. FRANKEN>> What did you say? SILVERMAN>> I said I put some cream on it. 21:15:30 FRANKEN>> You see, Sarah's the comedian so she gets the joke and I'm the politician now, so I get to make what's known as an ask. But trust me, it's a good ask. You see, if you go to hillaryclinton.com before midnight tonight and join the team, you can be not just #I'mwithher in spirit but #I'mwithher literally, as in you could win a trip to Philadelphia to be here on Thursday night when Hillary accepts the nomination. See, Sarah? That's even more fun than getting to get the joke. 21:16:15 SILVERMAN>> Oh, Al. You still got it. While we're on the subject, can I make my speech now? FRANKEN>> Oh absolutely. Go ahead. SILVERMAN>> Thank you. Al, get out of my frame. As some of you may know, I support Bernie Sanders and the movement behind him. [ cheers and applause ] 21:16:41 And Bernie's already succeeded in so many ways. He proved that citizens united is in fact not a necessary evil and by the way, citizens united, isn't that such a beautiful name for something that means billionaires buying politicians? Good Lord. Rails against the very spirit of our democracy. 21:17:06 And I'm very glad that Hillary has vowed to overturn it. [ cheers ] Not only did Bernie wake us up, he made us understand what is possible and what we deserve. You know, my shrink says we don't get what we want, we get what we think we deserve, and Bernie showed us that all of America's citizens deserve quality health care and education, not just the wealthy elites. I know. It sounds so obvious, who wouldn't agree with that? But yet it's not what's been happening. You know, I happen to believe the crazy notion that people who maybe weren't born with the same opportunities as you and me should be given the same opportunities as you and me. 21:17:57 And all it takes to accomplish this is everyone, is all of us, or as a pretty kick-ass woman once said, it takes a village. This democratic primary was exemplary. No name calling, no comments about the size of candidate's hands or ethnicity or how much they sweat or if they go to the bathroo m. Inside secret, they do. That stuff is for third graders. Come on. That's like major arrested development stuff. That's -- I'm still emotionally for calling people names from my gold-encrusted sand box because I was given money instead of human touch or coping tools stuff. Stop. But I digress. I have just been told to stretch. 21:18:54 Hillary heard the passion of the people, the people behind Bernie, and brought those passions into the party's platform and that, that is the process of democracy at its very best and it's very cool to see. [ cheers and applause ] Hillary is our democratic nominee and I will proudly vote for her. >> [ boos ] [ SHOT OF BERNIE SUPPORTERS ] 21:19:28 It's so inspiring, it's so inspiring, just a few years ago -- [ SHOT OF BERNIE SUPPORTERS BOOING ] -- she was a secretary and now she's going to be president. I mean, come on. She's like the only person ever to be overqualified for a job as the president. 21:19:51 So I tell you this, I will vote for Hillary with gusto, as I -- as I continue to be inspired and moved to action by the ideals set forth by Bernie, who will never stop fighting for us. [ CAN HEAR AUDIENCE IN BACKGROUND ] I am proud to be a part of Bernie's movement and a vital part of that movement is making absolutely sure that Hillary Clinton is our next president of the United States. Boo ya. Ba, ba, booey. 21:20:31 FRANKEN>> Gee, that was pretty good, Sarah. Hillary, Hillary. SILVERMAN>> Unity, unity, unity. FRANKEN>>Hillary, Hillary. 21:20:56 SILVERMAN>> Can I just say to the Bernie or bust people, you're being ridiculous. [ cheers ] They told us to stretch so I figured I'd add that. They made me cut off my speech and now we have to stretch. Oh I have so much I want to say. FRANKEN>> Well, okay. >> [ chant ] BERNIE! BERNIE! FRANKEN>> You know, listen to that. Listen to what you did. This is a comedian. This is the power of comedy. SILVERMAN>> Thank god they can fix this in post. 21:21:55 FRANKEN>> You know, we -- we have been -- I want to thank you, because Sarah and I have been asked to stretch, because we are about to introduce someone that we're both huge fans of. How we doing, guys? We close? We'll see. You know, Sarah, what I love about us both being here is that you know, it's like we're a bridge. A bridge. SILVERMAN>> How do you figure that, Al? How do you figure that we're a bridge? FRANKEN>> Well, you were for Bernie. I'm for Hillary. So we are like a bridge over troubled -- 22:22:52 SILVERMAN>> Oh, good lord. Are they ready? Ladies and gentlemen, Mr. Paul Simon. 21:23:30 [PAUL SIMON PERFORMANCE] 21:28:41 VIDEO OF MARIO CUOMO PLAYS EVA LONGORIA 21:32:29 >> Hello, Philadelphia! [ cheers ] Oh, man, I am so honored to be here tonight and I am proud to say I'm with her. [ cheers ] You know, like many of you, this election is very personal to me. I'm from a small town in south Texas and if you know your history, Texas used to be part of Mexico. Now, I'm ninth generation American. My family never crossed a border. The border crossed us. 21:33:20 So when Donald Trump calls us criminals and rapists, he's insulting American families. My father is not a criminal or rapist. In fact, he's a United States veteran. When Trump cruelly mocked a disabled reporter, he was also mocking my special need sister, Lisa, and many like her. When he said that a wife who works is a very dangerous thing, he not only insulted me, he insulted my mother, who worked as a special education teacher for 30 years, raised four children while being a wife.You know, I believe in the candidate who believes in all of us and that candidate is Hillary Clinton. 21:34:24 Hillary has spent her whole life fighting for all Americans from health care reform to equal pay for women to gun safety to protecting the economy. She is the most qualified presidential candidate ever. She's been fighting for us for decades and now it's time we fight for her. Now, I'm very proud to be part of that fight and I'm very proud to be here to introduce my dear friend Cory booker, but, but before I do, I want you to take a look at your convention, Philadelphia. 21:35:10 A Latina from south Texas is introducing the first black senator from New Jersey on the week we'll nominate our first woman candidate for president of the United States. Pretty great. So guess what, Donald, it turns out America is pretty great already. Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome senator Cory booker. CORY BOOKER (NEW JERSEY) 21:36:02 Hello Philadelphia! Thank you! Thank you! [ cheers ] >> [ chant ] Cory! Cory! Cory! BOOKER>> Thank you. Thank you. Thank you very much, thank you. 21:36:27 Two hundred forty years ago, our forefathers gathered in this city and they declared before the world that we would be a free and independent nation. Today, we gather here again, in challenging times, in this city, in this City of Brotherly Love, to reaffirm our values, before our nation and the whole world. Our purpose is not like theirs to start a great nation, but to ensure that we continue in the best of our traditions, and with humble homage to generations of patriots before, we put forth two great Americans - our nominees for President and Vice President: Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine! 21:37:32 Now looking back to our history, our founding fathers put forth founding documents that were indeed genius. But our founding documents were not genius because they were perfect. They were saddled with the imperfections and even the bigotry of the past. Native Americans were referred to as savages, black Americans were referred to as fractions of human beings, and women were not mentioned at all. 21:38:06 But those facts and other ugly parts of our history don't distract from our nation's greatness. In fact, I believe we are an even greater nation, not because we started perfect, but because every generation has successfully labored to make us a more perfect union. 21:38:31 [SHOT OF BILL CLINTON] BOOKER: Generations of heroic Americans have made America more inclusive, more expansive, and more just. Our nation was not founded because we all looked alike, or prayed alike, or descended from the same family tree. But our founders, in their genius, in this, the oldest constitutional democracy on the planet earth, they put forth the idea that all are created equal; that we all have inalienable rights. And upon this faithful foundation we built a great nation, and today, no matter who you are - rich or poor, Asian or white, man or woman, gay or straight, any religion or none at all - you are entitled to the full rights and responsibilities of citizenship. 21:39:36 In this city, our founders put forth a Declaration of Independence, but let me tell you, they also made a historic declaration of interdependence. They knew that if this country was to survive and thrive, we had to make an unusual and extraordinary commitment to each other. 21:40:03 Look, I respect and value the ideals of individualism and self-reliance. But rugged individualism didn't defeat the British, it didn't get us to the moon, it didn't build our nation's highways. Rugged individualism didn't map the human genome. We did that together. [ cheers and applause ] 21:40:28 And so, this is the high call of patriotism. Patriotism is love of country. But you can't love your country without loving your countrymen and your countrywomen. [ cheers and applause ] Now we don't always have to agree, but we must empower each other, we must find the common ground, and we must build bridges across our differences to pursue the common good. 21:41:04 Let me tell you, we can't devolve into a nation where our highest aspirations are that we just tolerate each other. We are not called to be a nation of tolerance. We are called to be a nation of love. That's why that last line in the Declaration of Independence says it so clearly. It says that we must, to make this nation work we must mutually pledge to each other our lives and our fortunes and our sacred honor. Tolerance is the wrong way. Tolerance says I am just going to stomach your right to be different. That if you disappear from the face of the earth, I am no better or worse off. 21:41:52 But love - love knows that every American has worth and value, that no matter what their background, no matter what their race or religion, or sexual orientation. Love, love recognizes that we need each other, that we as a nation are better together, that when we are divided we are weak, we decline, yet when we are united we are strong - invincible! 21:42:25 This -- [ cheers ] -- this, this is the understanding of love that's embodied in one of my favorite sayings, it's an African saying and it says: "If you want to go fast, go alone, but if you want to go far, go together." This is the reason why I'm so motivated in this election. Because I believe this election is a referendum on who best embodies the leadership we need to go far, together. 21:43:09 Donald Trump isn't that leader. We've watched him try to get laughs at others' expense; try to incite fear at a time we need to inspire courage; try to rise in the polls by dragging our national conversation into the gutter. We've watched him mock, cruelly mock a journalist's disability. We've watched him demean the service of my Senate colleague, saying, "He's not a war hero, "He was a war hero because he was captured. Trump said I don't like people who get captured. Would he say that from POW's from WWII. Would he say that to POWs from Vietnam. Would he say that to the brave men and women in Iraq and Afghanistan risking capture or worse. That's not the commander in chief. 21:44:04 We've watched Donald Trump paint with a broad and divisive brush, saying that Mexican immigrants who came to America to build a better life in America are in his words "bringing crime, they're bringing drugs." He called many of them rapists. He said that an Indiana-born federal judge can't be trusted to do his job because of his Mexican ancestry - a statement that his fellow Republicans have described as racist. 21:44:39 We've watched Donald Trump, our children, our daughters, our nieces and grandkids have watched Donald Trump and heard him calling women degrading and demeaning names. "Dog." "Fat pig." "Disgusting." "Animal." It's a twisted hypocrisy when he treats other women in a manner he would never, ever accept from another man speaking about his daughters or his wife. In this great nation where our founders put a fundamental principle forward of religious freedom, he says ban all Muslims, don't let certain people into our America because of how they pray. 21:45:31 Now, I take particular interest in the fact that Trump says he would run our country like he has run his businesses. Well, I'm from Jersey -- cheers ] -- I'm from the great Garden State, and we've seen the way he leads in Atlantic City. He got rich while his companies declared multiple bankruptcies. Yet without remorse, even as people got hurt by his failures, he bragged, and I quote, "The money I took out of there was incredible." Yes, he took out a lot of cash but he stiffed contractors - many of them small businesses, refusing to pay them for the work that they'd done. You know, we in America have seen enough of a handful of people growing rich at the cost of our nation descending into crisis. [ applause ] 21:46:33 America, at our best, we stand up to bullies and we fight those who seek to demean and degrade other Americans. In times of crisis we don't abandon our values - we double down on them. [ cheers ] [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] Even amidst of the crises of the Civil War, Lincoln stood up and called out to all of our country saying, "With malice toward none and charity toward all." This is our history. THis is the history that I was taught. 21:47:14 My parents never wanted my brother and I to get too heady. Gratitude was to be my gravity, so they never stopped reminding my brother and I that our blessings sprang from countless ordinary Americans who showed extraordinary acts of kindness, decency, and love; people who struggled, and sweat and bled for our rights, people paid the ultimate price for the freedoms we all enjoy. I was told that we can't pay those Americans back for their colossal acts of service, but we have an obligation to pay it forward to others through our service and sacrifice. 21:47:59 I support Hillary Clinton because these are her values, and she has been paying it forward her entire life. Long before she got in politics. [CHANTING] She was in Massachusetts, going door-to-door collecting stories of children with disabilities. In South Carolina, she fought to reform the juvenile justice system so children wouldn't be thrown into adult prisons. In Alabama, she helped expose remnants of segregation in schools. In Arkansas, she started a legal aid clinic to make sure poor folks could get their day in court. 21:48:42 She's always fought for people, and she's always delivered. That's why we trust her to fight, and deliver, for us as President. We have a Presidential nominee in Clinton who knows that, in a time of stunningly wide disparities of wealth in our nation, that America's greatness must not be measured by how many millionaires and billionaires we have, but how few people we have living in poverty. 21:49:13 Hillary knows when workers make a fair wage, it doesn't just help their families, it builds a stronger, more durable economy that expands opportunity and makes all of us Americans wealthier. She knows that in a global knowledge-based economy, the country that out-educates the world will out-earn the world, out-innovate the world, and will lead the world. She knows that debt-free college is not a gift, it's not charity, it's an investment. It represents the best of our values, the best of our history, the best of our party: all of our shared ideas and values together. 21:49:56 Hillary Clinton knows that when we have paid family leave, this is something that must happen because when a parent doesn't have to choose between being there for a sick kid and paying rent, or when a single mom earns an equal wage for equal work, it empowers the most important building block in all our nation and that is the family. 21:50:26 Hillary Clinton knows that security doesn't come from scapegoating people because of their religion, alienating our allies, stoking fear and pointing fingers. It comes when we band together to face down and defeat our common enemy. 21:50:42 And she knows something that I fight for everyday: that our criminal justice system desperately needs reform. >> [ chant ] Black lives matter! Black lives matter! BOOKER>> That we need to bring back fairness to a system that still, as Professor Bryan Stevenson says, treats you better if you are rich and guilty than poor and innocent. 21:51:03 [ chant still happening ] And she knows that we can be a nation that both believes that police officers deserve more respect, they deserve more support, more cooperation, and love - and believes that a black twenty-something black protester deserves to be valued, deserves to be heard, [ chant immediately seems to stop ] that they should be listened to with a more courageous empathy, and that change is needed in the system. [ cheers ] 21:51:33 And Hillary Clinton knows what Donald Trump betrays time and again in this campaign: that we are not a zero-sum nation, it is not you or me, it is not one American against another American. It is you and I, together, interdependent, interconnected with one single interwoven destiny. 21:51:58 When we respect each other, when we stand up for each other, when we work together against our challenges, against our neighbors' challenges - be it a neighbor with a beautiful special needs child or one struggling with the ugly disease of addiction - when we as Americans help them, when we show compassion and grace, when we evidence our truth, that we are the UNITED States of America, one nation, under God, indivisible, that is when we are stronger. That is when we go from an already great America to an even greater America. [ cheers ] [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] 21:52:40 Now let me tell you right now, when Trump spews insulting and demeaning words about our fellow Americans, I think of the poem by Maya Angelou. Ya'll know it, you know how it begins: "You may write me down in history / With your bitter, twisted lies, / You may trod me in the very dirt / But still, like dust, I'll rise." 21:53:10 Well ya'll know it -- [ cheers ] -- ya'll know it. [ SHOT OF BILL CLINTON ] This, this , this captures our American history: 240 years ago, an English King said he would crush our rebellion, but Americans from around our nation joined the fight. From Bunker Hill to the Battle of Trenton, they stood, and so many fell giving their lives in support of our daring declaration that: America, we will rise. 21:53:46 This is our history, this is our history. Escaped slaves, knowing that liberty is not secure for some until it's secure for all, sometimes hungry, often hunted, in dark woods and deep swamps, they looked up to the North Star and said with a determined whisper, America, we will rise. 21:54:12 Immigrants, risking their lives in times of sweatshops and child labor, they organized labor unions and devoted to lifting the tired, the poor and the huddled masses - with the fiercest of grit, they shouted so all could hear: America, we will rise. 21:54:36 King pointed to a mountain top, Kennedy pointed to the moon - from Seneca Falls to those who stood at Stonewall Inn, giants before us said in a chorus of conviction that America, we will rise. 21:54:53 My fellow Americans, my fellow Americans we cannot fall into complacency or indifference about this election, because still the only thing necessary for evil to be triumphant is for good people to do nothing, you know the saying. My fellow Americans, we cannot be seduced into cynicism about our politics, because cynicism is a refuge for cowards and this nation is and must always be the home of the brave. We are the United States of America. We will not falter or fail. We will not retreat or surrender - we will not surrender our values, we will not surrender our ideals, we will not surrender the moral high ground. 21:55:40 Here in Philadelphia, let us declare again that we will be a free people. Free from fear and intimidation. Let us declare again that we are a nation of interdependence, and that in America love always trumps hate. [cheers and applause] Let us declare, so that generations yet unborn can hear us. We are the United States of America; our best days are ahead of us. 21:56:15 And together, with Hillary Clinton as our President, America, we will rise. God Bless America. Let us rise, together. God Bless America. CHERYL LANKFORD 21:59:10 When you lose a spouse, you know that your life will change forever. You know that it won't be easy. But I didn't expect that on top of grieving the loss of my husband and trying to take care of my baby, I would also be the victim of a scam. You just saw what happened to me. How Trump University cheated me out of the money I received after my husband's death. How they broke their promises. How they stopped taking my calls. How the whole thing was a lie. 21:59:45 By conning me out of the money the military gave me after my husband died, I felt like trump University was disrespecting Jonathan's memory. I was furious. Frightened. And the truth is, I was embarrassed. The worst part is that I wasn't the only victim of Donald Trump's greed, far from it. He preyed on vulnerable people like military widows and the elderly. 22:00:16 He made millions of dollars off of people like me. Millions. He cheated more than 5,000 students. Hardworking middle class folks. Teachers. Police officers. Even veterans. These are folks just like me who didn't have a lot, but who were told that if they paid for Donald Trump's program, they might be able to make a better living. Here's a guy who was born rich and who has all the money in the world and there's nothing wrong with that. In fact, I signed up for trump University because I thought I could learn something from him. But then he decided to make himself even richer. By cheating working people who had nothing to spare. 22:01:13 What kind of man does that? It's not easy for me to get up here and tell my story. For a long time, I didn't tell anybody. Not even my family or my friends. But I'm here because America deserves to know the truth. This election isn't about Democrat versus Republican It's about right versus wrong. It's about someone who helps ordinary people no matter what it takes versus someone who helps himself no matter who it hurts. 22:02:02 Donald Trump made big promises about Trump University, and I was fooled into believing him. Now, he's making big promises about America. Please, don't make that same mistake. MICHELLE OBAMA 22:05:36 Oh. Thank you, all. Thank you so much. You know, it's hard to believe that it has been eight years since I first came to this convention to talk with you about why I thought my husband should be president. Remember how I told you about his character and conviction, his decency and his grace. The traits that we've seen every day that he's served our country in the white house. [ cheers ] 22:06:22 I also told you about our daughters, how they are the heart of our hearts, the center of our world, and during our time in the white house, we've had the joy of watching them grow from bubbly little girls into poised young women. A journey that started soon after we arrived in Washington, when they set off for their first day at their new school. I will never forget that winter morning as I watched our girls just 7 and 10 years old, pile into those black SUVs with all those big men with guns. And I saw their little faces pressed up against the window, and the only thing I could think was, what have we done. [ laughter ] 22:07:15 See, because at that moment, I realized that our time in the white house would form the foundation for who they would become and how well we managed this experience could truly make or break them. That is what Barack and I think about every day as we try to guide and protect our girls through the challenges of this unusual life in the spotlight. How we urge them to ignore those who question their father's citizenship or faith. How we insist that the hateful language they hear from public figures on TV does not represent the true spirit of this country. 22:08:03 How we explain that one someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you don't stoop to their level. No, our motto is, "When they go low, we go high." [ cheers ] With every word we utter, with every action we take, we know our kids are watching us. We as parents are their most important role models, and let me tell you, Barack and I take that same approach to our jobs as president and first lady because we know that our words and actions matter. Not just to our girls, but the children across this country. 22:08:44 Kids who tell us, I saw you on TV, I wrote a report on you for school. Kids like the little black boy who looked up at my husband, his eyes wide with hope, and he wondered, is my hair like yours? And make no mistake about it, this November when we go to the polls, that is what we're deciding. Not Democrat or Republican. Not left or right. No, in this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives. [ cheers and applause, shot of woman crying ] 22:09:30 And I am here tonight because in this election, there is only one person who I trust with that responsibility. Only one person who I believe is truly qualified to be president of the United States, and that is our friend, Hillary Clinton. [ cheers, SHOT OF BILL STANDING AND CLAPPING ] That's right. 22:10:04 See, I trust -- I trust Hillary to lead this country because I've seen her lifelong devotion to our nation's children. Not just our own daughter who she has raised to perfection, but every child who needs a champion. Kids who take the long way to school to avoid the gangs, kids who wonder how they'll ever afford college. Kids whose parents don't speak a word of English but dream of a better life. Kids who look to us to determine who and what they can be. 22:10:44 You see, Hillary has spent decades doing the relentless, thankless work to actually make a difference in their lives. Advocating for kids with disabilities as a young lawyer. Fighting for children's health care as first lady and for quality childcare in the senate. And when she didn't win the nomination eight years ago, she didn't get angry or disillusioned. [ cheers ] She -- Hillary did not -- Hillary did not pack up and go home because as a true public servant, Hillary knows that this is so much bigger than her own desires and disappointments. 22:11:44 So, she proudly stepped up to serve our country once again as secretary of state, traveling the globe to keep our kids safe. And look, there were plenty of moments when Hillary could have decided that this work was too hard, that the price of public service was too high, that she was tired of being picked apart for how she looks or how she talks or even how she laughs. But here's the thing, what I admire most about Hillary is that she never buckles under pressure. She never takes the easy way out. 22:12:25 And Hillary Clinton has never quit on anything in her life. [ cheers ] And when I think about the kind of president that I want for my girls and all our children, that's what I want. I want someone with the proven strength to persevere. Someone who knows this job and takes it seriously. Someone who understands that the issues a president faces are not black and white and cannot be boiled down to 140 characters -- 22:13:03 Look, because -- [ cheers, SHOT OF BILL ] because when you have the nuclear codes at your fingertips and the military in your command, you can't make snap decisions. You can't have a thin skin or tendency to lash out. You need to be steady and measured and well informed. [ cheers and applause ] I want a president with a record of public service. Someone whose life work shows our children that we don't chase fame and fortune for ourselves. 22:13:53 We fight to give everyone a chance to succeed. And we give back even when we're struggling, ourselves, because we know that there is always someone more soft, but there, for the grace of god, go I. I want a president who will teach our children that everyone in this country matters. A president who truly believes in the vision that our founders put forth all those years ago, that we are all created equal. Each a beloved part of the great American story. And when crisis hits, we don't turn against each other. 22:14:35 No, we listen to each other We lean on each other because we are always stronger together. And I am here tonight because I know that that is the kind of president that Hillary Clinton will be, and that's why in this election, I'm with her. You see, Hillary understands that the president is about one thing and one thing only. It's about leaving something better for our kids. That's how we've always moved this country forward, by all of us coming together on behalf of our children. 22:15:33 Folks who volunteer to coach that team, to teach that Sunday school class because they know it takes a village. Heroes of every color and creed who wear the uniform and risk their lives to keep passing down those blessings of liberty. Police officers and the protesters in Dallas who all desperately want to keep our children safe. People who lined up in Orlando to donate blood because it could have been their son, their daughter, in that club. [ cheers and applause ] Leaders like Tim kaine, [ cheers ] who show our kids what decency and devotion look like. 22:16:28 Leaders like Hillary Clinton who has the guts and the grace to keep coming back and putting those cracks in that highest and hardest glass ceiling until she finally breaks through, lifting all of us along with her. That is the story of this country. The story that has brought me to this stage tonight. The story of generations of people who felt the lash of bondage, the shame of servitude, the sting of segregation, but who kept on striving and hoping and doing what needed to be done so that today, I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. 22:17:20 And I watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent, black young women, playing with their dogs on the white house lawn. [ cheers ] And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States. [ cheers ] 22:18:07 So look. So, don't let anyone ever tell you that this country isn't great, that somehow we need to make it great again, because this right now is the greatest country on Earth. And as my daughters prepare to set out into the world, I want a leader who is worthy of that truth. A leader who is worthy of my girls' promise and all our kids' promise. A leader who will be guided every day by the love and hope and impossibly big dreams that we all have for our children. 22:18:58 So in this election, we cannot sit back and hope that everything works out for the best. We cannot afford to be tired or frustrated or cynical. No, hear me. Between now and November, we need to do what we did eight years ago and four years ago. [ cheers ] We need to knock on every door. We need to get out every vote. We need to pour every last ounce of our passion and our strength and our love for this country into electing Hillary Clinton as president of the United States of America. So let's get to work. Thank you, all. God bless. JOSEPH KENNEDY III 22:21:07 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. My first day of law school, my very first class. The goal escape unscathed. Not three seconds in and I get the first question, Mr. Kennedy what is the definition of assumpsit? Huh Mr. Kennedy, you realize assumpsit is the very first word in your reading? Yeah. I actually circled it because I didn't know what it meant. 22:21:56 Mr. Kennedy, do you own a dictionary? That's what people do when they don't know what a word means, they look it up in a dictionary. I never showed up unprepared for professor Elizabeth Warren ever again. [ cheers and applause ] She was the toughest teacher on campus, but the wait list for her class was a mile long. She pushed us hard. She brought out our best. She believed in us. And she believed in the law, not as an abstraction, but as a living force with the power to make life better or worse. 22:22:43 She taught us that it's impactly not classrooms or textbooks, but in a society where wages had not budged in 40 years. Where two-and-a-half million children are homeless, where we can expected one in three black men to go to prison. Our laws have human consequences. That fact fuelled a law school professor to on this country's most entrenched financial interest. It brought a middle class champion back to Massachusetts senate seat and it led a first term U.S. Senator become our government gutcheck. In a sea of power and privilege senator Warren is an anchor for the voiceless and victimized. 22:23:35 She asks more from all of us because she believes deeply in each of us. That faith in our country and the American people is the very foundation of our democratic party. It echos through this arena tonight and to every classroom, living room, and hearing room that senator Elizabeth Warren has ever touched. Ladies and gentlemen, it's my honor to introduce to you, your senator, my senator, our senator, senator Elizabeth Warren. [ Applause ] ELIZABETH WARREN 22:24:34 Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you Joe and thank you Massachusetts for the great honor of serving as your senator. Thank you, guys. What a night. Wow! Michelle Obama, Cory booker! [ Applause ] And we still have Bernie coming up Bernie reminds us what Democrats fight for every day, thank you Bernie. Thank you. 22:25:25 Now, we are here tonight because America faces a choice, the choice of a new president. On one side is a man who inherited a fortune from his father and kept it going by cheating people, by skipping out on debts, a man who has never sacrificed anything for anyone, a man who cares only for himself every minute of every day. On the other side is one of the smartest, toughest, most tenacious people on this planet, a woman who fights for children, for women, for health care, for human rights, a woman who fights for all of us and who is strong enough to win those fights. 22:26:16 We're here today because our choice is Hillary Clinton. I'm with Hillary. I'm with Hillary. [Applause ] I'm with Hillary. [CHANTING WE TRUSTED YOU] 22:26:32 You know, for me this choice is personal. It's about who we are as a people. It's about what kind of a country we want to be. I grew up in Oklahoma. My daddy ended up as a maintenance man, and my mom worked a minimum wage job at sears. My three brothers served in the military. The oldest was career, 288 combat missions in Vietnam, the second worked construction and the third started his own small business. Me, I got married at 19, graduated from a commuter college in Texas that cost $50 a semester. 22:27:16 The way I see it, I'm a janitor's daughter who became a public schoolteacher, a professor and a United States state senator, America is truly a country of opportunity. Truly. [ Applause ] I am deeply grateful to that America. I believe in that America. But I'm worried. I'm worried that my story is locked in the past, worried that opportunity is slipping away for people who work hard and play to the rules. I mean look around, Americans bust their tails, some working two or three jobs, but wages stay flat, meanwhile the basic cost of making it from month to month keep going up, housing, health care, child care, the costs are out of sight. 22:28:09 Young people are getting crushed by student loans. Working people are in debt. Seniors can't stretch a social security check to cover the basics. And even families who are okay today worry it could all fall apart tomorrow This is not right. It is not. And here's is the thing, America isn't going broke. The stock market is breaking records, corporate profits are at all-time highs. CEOs makes tens of millions of dollars. 22:28:50 There's lots of wealth in America, but it isn't trickling down to hardworking families like yours Does anyone here have a problem with that? [ cheers ] Yeah, well I do too. People get it. The system is rigged. You know -- [ cheers ] -- it's true. Now, so-called experts claim America is in trouble because both political parties in Washington refuse to compromise, gridlock, that is just flat wrong. Washington works great for those at the top. 22:29:36 When giant companies wanted more tax loopholes, Washington got it done. When huge energy companies wanted to tear up our environment, Washington got it done. When enormous Wall Street banks wanted new regulatory loopholes, Washington got it done. No gridlock there. But try to do something, anything for working people and you'll have a fight on your hands. Democrats have taken on those fights, that's what we do. [ Applause ] 22:30:13 Democrats fought to get health insurance for more Americans. Democrats fought for a strong consumer agency so big banks can't cheat people. We fought, we won and we improved the lives of millions of people. Thank you, Barack Obama. [ Applause ] Yes, we won, but Republicans and lobbyists battled us every step of the way. Five years later, that consumer agency has returned $11 billion to families who were cheated, and Republicans, Republicans, they're still trying to kill it. 22:31:04 Now look, I'm not someone who thinks that Republicans are always wrong and Democrats are always right. There's enough blame to go around. But there is a huge difference between people fighting for a level-playing field and the people fighting to keep the system rigged. Look at congress, since the Republicans took over. Democrats proposed refinancing student loans and Republicans, they said, no. Democrats proposed ending tax breaks for corporations that ship jobs overseas and Republicans, they said, no. 22:31:45 Democrats proposed raising the minimum wage and Republicans, they said, no. So to every Republican in congress who said no, this November, the American people are coming for you. [ Cheers and Applause ] Yup. Yes. That's right. 22:3219 And where was Donald Trump? In all these fights, not once did he lift a finger to help working people. Why would he? His whole life has been about taking advantage of that rigged system. Time after time, he prayed on working people, people in debt, people who had fallen on hard times. He's conned them. He's defrauded them and he's ripped them off. Look at his history. Donald Trump said he was excited for the 2008 housing crash that devastated millions of American families because he thought it would help him scoop up more real estate. 22:33:07 Donald Trump set up a fake university to make money by cheating people and taking their life savings. Donald Trump goes on and on and on about being a successful businessman, but he filed business bankruptcy six times, always to protect his own money and stick the investors and contractors with the bill. Donald Trump hired plumbers and painters and construction workers to do hard labor for his businesses, then he told them to take only a fraction of what he owed or fight his lawyers in court for years. What type of a man acts like this. What kind of man roots for an economic crash that cost millions of people of their jobs, their homes, their life savings. What kind of a man cheats students, investors, cheats workers. 22:34:14 Well I'll tell you what kind of a man, a man who must never be president of the united States. [Applause] Never. And we've got the leaders to make it happen, Hillary Clinton and Tim kaine. They're going to make it happen. [ cheers ] Donald Trump knows that the American people are angry, in fact, so obvious, he can see it knows that the American people are angry, in fact, so obvious, he can see it from the top of the trump tower. 22:35:10 So now he's insisting that he and he alone can fix the rig system. Last week he spoke for more than an hour on the biggest stage that he's ever had. Other than talking about building a stupid wall which will never get built -- [ applause ] -- Other than that wall, did you hear any actual ideas? [ No ] Did you hear even one solid proposal from Trump for increasing incomes? [ No ] Or improving your kids' education? [ No ] Or creating even one single good-paying job? [ No ] Let's face it, Donald Trump has no real plans for jobs or college kids or for seniors, no plans to make anything great for anyone, except the rich guys like Donald Trump. [ Applause ] 22:36:14 Just look at his ideas. Donald Trump wants to get rid of the federal minimum wage. Donald Trump wants to roll back financial regular laces and turn Wall Street loose to wreck our economy again. And Donald Trump has a tax plan to give multimillionaires and billionaires like himself an average tax cut of $1.43 million a year. [ Boo ] 22:36:43 You're struggling to put your kids through college, and Donald Trump thinks he needs a million dollar tax break. Trump's entire campaign is just one more late night trump infomercial. Hand over your money, your jobs your children's future and the great trump hot air machine will reveal all the answers. [ Applause ] And for one low low price, he'll even throw in a goofy hat. [Laughter ] And here is the really ugly underside to his pitch, trump thinks he can win votes by fanning the flames of fear and hatred, by turning neighbor against neighbor, by persuading you that the real problem in America is your fellow Americans, people who don't look like you or don't talk like you or don't worship like you. 22:37:48 He even picked a vice president famous for trying to make it legal to openly discriminate against gays and lesbians. That's Donald Trump's America, an America of fear and hate, an America where we all break apart. Whites against blacks and Latinos, Christians against muslims and jews, straight against gay, everyone against immigrants, race religion heritage and gender, the more factions the better. But ask yourself this, when white workers in Ohio are pitted against black workers in north Carolina or Latino workers in Florida, who really benefits? Divide and conquer is an old story in America. 22:38:40 Dr. Martin Luther king knew it. After his March from Selma to Montgomery, he spoke of how segregation was created to keep people divided. Instead of higher wages for workers, Dr. King described how poor whites in the south were fed Jim Crow which told a poor white worker that "No matter how bad off he was, at least he was a white man better than the black man." Racial hatred was part of keeping the powerful on top. [ Applause ] 22:39:20 When we turn on each other, bankers can run our economy for Wall Street, oil companies can fight off clean energy and giant corporations can ship the last good jobs overseas. When we turn on each other, rich guys like Trump can push through more tax breaks for themselves. And then we'll never have enough money to support our schools or rebuild our highways or invest in our kids' future. When we turn on each other, we can't unite to fight back against a rigged system. [ Applause ] 22:39:59 Well I've got news for Donald Trump, the American people are not falling for it. [ cheers ] We've seen this ugliness before and we are not going to be Donald Trump's hate-filled America, not now, not ever. This is about our values, about our shared-values with our candidates, Hillary Clinton and Tim kaine. [ Applause ] Let's talk about those values. We believe that no matter who you are, no matter where you're from, no matter who you love equal means equal, Hillary will fight to make sure discrimination has no place in America and we're with her. 22:41:03 We believe that no one no one who works full time should live in poverty. Hillary will fight for raising the minimum wage, fair scheduling, paid family and medical leave and we're with hear . [Applause ] We believe every kid in America should have a chance for a great education, without getting crushed by debt. Hillary will fight for refinancing student loans and debt free college. We are with her. And we believe that after a life-time of hard work, seniors should be able to retire with dignity. Hillary will fight to expand social security, strengthen medicare and protect our retirement accounts, and we're with her. [ Applause ] 22:42:08 We believe that oil companies shouldn't call the shots in Washington, that science matters, that climate change is real. Hillary will fight to preserve this Earth for our children and grandchildren and we're with her. We believe, and I can't believe I have to say this in 2016 -- in equal pay for equal work and a woman's right to control over her own body,, Hillary will fight for women, and we're with her. [ cheers ] That's right. We believe, we don't need weaker rules on Wall Street. We need stronger rules and when big banks get too risky, break them up. Hillary will fight to hold big banks accountable, and we're with her. 22:43:11 And we believe that the united States should never, never sign trade deals that help giant corporations but leave workers in the dirt. Hillary will fight for American workers and we're with her. Okay. Just one more, we believe we must get big money out of politics and root out corruption. Hillary will fight to overturned citizens united and return this government to the people. 22:43:56 If you believe that America must work for all of us, not just for the rich and powerful, if you believe that we must reject the politics of fear and division, if you believe that we are stronger together, then let's work our hearts out to make Hillary Clinton the next president of the United States. [ Applause ] Thank you. KEITH ELLISON (MN) 22:45:00 Hello democrats! [ cheers ] You know, tonight, tonight my Democrats, we are -- we are united around the most Progressive platform in history, the most Progressive platform in history, a 15-dollar an hour minimum wage, banning private prisons, expanding social security, the public option, and debt free college tuition. That's the platform that Bernie Sanders and Hillary Clinton wrote together. [ cheers ] And that's the platform -- that's the platform that we can make the law of the land if we stand together, if we work together and if we vote together on November 8th. 22:46:11 You know trump, he wants to divide and conquer us with his anti muslim, anti-mexican, anti-worker message. They don't want us to vote They want to push voter I.D. Laws that black and Latino voters, Paul Rand won't even allow the vote to restore the voting rights act. You know, we must push back. Voting is not voting is not a protest. It is a surrender. When they bring the fear, we bring the courage. When they bring the division, we've got to bring the unity, everybody. 22:47:03 As a proud, and I said proud Bernie Sanders' supporter, I will always remember feeling the bern in Minnesota. There's my minnesotans over there. 6,000 in Duluth, 14,000 in Saint Paul, Bernie sparked the beginning of a revolution, y'all. He packed them in from Davenport to Detroit -- to your town and mine. 13 million Americans voted their progressive values and millions more made an investment in building that movement $27 at a time. 22:47:56 You know together, together we call for climate justice. We call for racial justice We call for wage justice, you know what, we made our voices heard. Together, Democrats, we will make our voices heard in November when we defeat Donald Trump. And elect Hillary Rodham Clinton the next president of the united States of America. [ cheers and applause ] 22:48:35 But tonight, tonight -- let us raise our voices in gratitude to the man who has helped make this great party greater than ever, ladies and gentlemen, I give you Bernie Sanders. BERNIE SANDERS WALKS ON 22:50:09 SPEAKS AT 22:53:02 [About 3 minutes of cheering before he can speak] 22:50:49 [ SHOT OF CROWD WITH BERNIE SIGNS ] 23:53:02 It is an honor to be here tonight and to be following in the footsteps of my good friend Elizabeth Warren and to be here tonight to thank Michelle Obama for her incredible service to our country. She has made all of us proud. 23:53:35 Let me begin by thanking the hundreds of thousands of Americans who actively participated in our campaign as volunteers--thank you. Let me thank the 2.5 million Americans who helped fund our campaign with an unprecedented 8 million individual campaign contributions. 22:54:16 Anyone know what that average contribution was? >> $27! SANDERS>> That's right. $27. And let me thank the 13 million Americans who voted for the political revolution, [ cheers and applause ] giving us the 1,846 pledged delegates here tonight. [ cheers and applause ] 22:55:08 >> [ chant ] Bernie! Bernie! And delegates, thank you for being here and thank you for all the work you've done. I look forward -- [ cheers ] -- I look forward to your votes during the roll call tomorrow night. [ cheers and applause ] 22:56:03 And let me offer a special thanks to the people of my own state of Vermont--who have sustained me and supported me as a mayor, congressman, senator and presidential candidate. 22:56:27 And to my family - my wife Jane, our four kids and seven grandchildren -thank you very much. I understand that many people here in this convention hall and around the country are disappointed about the final results of the nominating process. I think it's fair to say that no one is more disappointed than I am. But to all of our supporters - here and around the country - I hope you take enormous pride in the historical accomplishments we have achieved. 22:57:27 Together, my friends, we have begun a political revolution to transform America and that revolution - our revolution - continues. Election days come and go. But the struggle of the people to create a government which represents all of us and not just the 1 percent [ cheers ] - a government based on the principles of economic, social, racial and environmental justice - that struggle continues. 22:58:34 And I look forward to being part of that struggle with you. Let me be as clear as I can be. This election is not about, and has never been about, Hillary Clinton, or Donald Trump, or Bernie Sanders or any of the other candidates who sought the presidency. This election is not about political gossip. It's not about polls. It's not about campaign strategy. It's not about fundraising. It's not about all the things that the media spends so much time discussing. [ cheers and applause ] 22:59:34 This election is about - and must be about - the needs of the American people and the kind of future we create for our children and grandchildren. This election is about ending the 40-year decline of our middle class, the reality that 47 million men, women and children live in poverty. It is about understanding that if we do not transform our economy, our younger generation will likely have a lower standard of living than their parents. This election is about ending the grotesque level of income and wealth inequality in America today. [ cheers ] >> [ chant ] 99%! 99%! 23:01:00 It is not moral., it is not acceptable and it is not sustainable that the top one-tenth of one percent now own almost as much wealth as the bottom 90 percent. [ boos ] Or that the top 1 percent in recent years has earned 85 percent of all new income. That is unacceptable. That must change. [ boos ] This election is about remembering where we were 7 1/2 years ago when President Obama came into office after eight years of Republican trickle-down economics.
