5 takeaways from the entire Democratic National Convention

  • 8 years ago
Former and potentially future first daughter Chelsea Clinton offered the nation an intimate glimpse of her mom as she introduced the Democratic nominee Thursday night. "I am voting for a fighter that never ever gives up and who believes that we can always do better," she said. Clinton stepped onto the stage in Wells Fargo Center Thursday to officially accept her nomination for President of the United States, marking the first time a woman has been a major political party's nominee. Clinton was introduced to the world by members of her family, including daughter Chelsea and husband and former president Bill. "In the spring of 1971 I met a girl. The first time I saw her we were, appropriately enough, in a class on political and civil rights. She had thick blonde hair, big glasses, wore no makeup." Hillary Clinton attacked GOP rival Donald Trump on his temperament, saying "A man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons." Bernie Sanders' revolution continued with his supporters making their presence felt immediately as the Vermont senator did his best to direct his loyalists into Clinton's camp.
