Democratic Convention, Day Three – Open Thread And Streaming Video

Posted by Ellen -7842.60pc on August 19, 2020 · Flag

Tonight, Sen. Kamala Harris will cap off a series of exciting speakers (Barack Obama, Elizabeth Warren, Hillary Clinton and more) and make her acceptance speech as the vice presidential nominee on Day Three of the convention. We’ve got it live streaming after the jump and there’s an open thread for your thoughts and observations.

Tonight’s lineup, via The Washington Post:

  • Kamala D. Harris, Biden’s running mate.
  • Barack Obama, the last Democratic president and a popular figure in the party.
  • Elizabeth Warren, the senator from Massachusetts and former presidential candidate.
  • Nancy Pelosi, the speaker of the House.
  • Hillary Clinton, the party’s 2016 nominee, former senator and former secretary of state.
  • Tony Evers, the governor of Wisconsin.
  • Michelle Lujan Grisham, the governor of New Mexico.
  • Gabrielle Giffords, the former congresswoman from Arizona who helms a group aimed at preventing gun violence. Deandra Dycus, a mother whose son was paralyzed from a bullet, will introduce Giffords.
  • Hilda Solis, the former secretary of labor under the Obama administration.
  • Actresses Kerry Washington and Mariska Hargitay and performers Billie Eilish and Jennifer Hudson and Prince Royce will make appearances.
  • The program will also feature an undocumented immigrant and his family.

I’ve been enjoying the convention so far but this looks amazing.

I’m still a little under the weather but I’ll be watching, even if not commenting as much as I’d like, and eager to read any comments.

Sometimes it seems that the DNC has been taunting Trump. I’ve actually been surprised (and very pleased!) that nobody has pulled any punches when talking about Trump.
The plan seems to be getting to Trump…he’s sounding even dumber lately!

Agree. They do it just to be malicious, which is disgusting. Somebody once said that to Joy Reid and she said, in her smooth way, “We say ‘Democratic’ here.”

I know it’s a childish nothing, but my god it irritates me when the Republicans talk about the Democrat (rather than Democratic) Party – seems to be an orthodoxy for them these days. I wonder how they’d react if we constantly referred to them as the Republic Party?

I would have liked a chorus of “Lock him up” but I understand why they’re not doing it.

Yes, he was. It was a great prelude to Harris, too.

Barack was magnificent. Sent shivers down my spine.

Kamala Harris: “I know a predator when I see one.”

I like Joe Biden and believe he’s a really nice guy. But they’re making him a saint and he’s got to have some flaws.

I get the criticisms about her but I just love her and how smart and feisty she is.

And now Nancy Pelosi!

OK. I’m the world’s biggest political nerd but I’m finding tonight’s convention riveting. I thought Hillary was great, Gov. Grisham was great, Gabbie Giffords was great and the “regular” people were so moving.
