So, I am one of those people that actually watches political conventions. I’ll even watch as much of the Republican convention as I can before my head explodes.
I remember the first time I heard Obama speak was at the last convention and I thought, “Damn. He’s going to be a star.”
The New York Times has a fantastic timeline on the history of the Democratic National Convention that you can see here.
And if you are so inclined, Michelle Obama’s speech is kick-ass. It’s twenty minutes, but I think it’s worth it.
