I didn't get to see Sarah Silverman speak but I did see a snipit of the end on YouTube. Loved that she dropped a Baba Booey!

Damn, Michelle, you are KILLING IT.

"Don't ever let anyone tell you this country isn't great. That we need to make it great again. This right now is the greatest country on earth."

I don't think she's aged a day.
That was possibly the best speech I ever heard her give.

Okay, now Elizabeth Warren is speaking. Did you hear the one guy shouting something? What was he saying? Warren didn't even pause, just kept on with her speech.

As a Jersey girl, I'm so impressed with Booker. Reminds me of Obama at his first DNC speech years ago. I just hope he doesn't get rushed to the White House - he needs to mature and "season", but damn, is he going to be great!
Michelle's speech was just about perfect.

I love Elizabeth Warren too. I'm happy she is not the vice presidental pick. I think she does a lot more good being senator.

Damn Michelle. That was amazing. 💕💕💕
I love Elizabeth Warren but this speech has been a little boring until right about now.
I am super sick of the Bernie people. It happened, get over yourselves. If you truly believe in Bernie's ideals, then you shouldn't want Donald Trump anywhere near the White House. Stop shooting yourselves in the damn feet.

I got totally choked up by Michelle Obama's speech. What a brilliant, well spoken, inspirational person. I wish she'd run for office of some form. She's fantastic.

I've been watching it on and off and personally haven't had a problem with the Bernie cheering and booing. I'd rather people be authentically pissed off and allowed to say so then just hushed up. I'm sure eventually unity will prevail.

When she was talking about her children playing with their dog on the White House lawn it sounded like SHE was getting choked up too. It was a pretty darn inspired speech. So far, Senator Booker and Mrs. Obama have really made an impression on me.

I usually never watch. I always vote democrat so I don't need to be convinced. But then I heard Luis Gutierrez and I said to myself, "He speaks for me. I'm listening to someone who feels like I do about things."
So I've tuned in. Anastacia Somoza - wonderful. Sarah Silverman - awesome. Corey Booker - fired up and inspiring. Michelle Obama - amazing, powerful. Watching Elizabeth Warren and waiting for Bernie.
I feel like these people are my people. They think like I do, believe what I believe. So many times I feel as though I am alone in my beliefs. Hearing these speakers lets me know there are people like me, and lots of them.

I turned on the tv to watch something- not the DNC I I'm republican and don't care to watch- I didn't watch the RNC either. Anyway, Cory booker was speaking and I didn't know who he was but I stopped and listened to him- he was very charismatic, energetic, and seemed like a neat guy with some decent things to say. I wished Hillary had chosen him for vp then if she wins I wouldn't feel as bad.

Yes. For me it's as simple as glass half full instead of glass half empty. This IS a great and wonderful country. Can we be better? DO better? Absolutely! So let's go! Let's do that. Let's top the glass off. Let's not start from a glass that is so bone dry it's cracking. We are better than that.
