Democratic national convention in Denver

The democratic national convention took place in Denver from the 25th to the 28th, in which democratics had their speech. That was the convention in which Barack Obama accepted to be the presidential candidate. Few important people had their speech, among them were Michelle Obama, Joe Biden, the Clinton couple, and the candidate himself Mr Barack Obama. The candidate himself had the most moving speech of all. During his speech, many people were crying. I was shocked when Obama's former opponent Hilary Clinton gave a speech to support him , so did her husband too. That was really amazing to me, because there was a tension between the two before the democratic candidate was chosen. everybody who was present at the convention, did show support for the candidate. Hopefully he will be the next president of United states of America

None of us know at this point whether the Palin pick was an act of desperation or an act of genius. Does the Palin pick help McCain show that he is not the same as Bush -- or does it show that like Bush, McCain is willing to pander to the Religious Right and make big decisions on political criteria.

One of the purposes of the party convention is to unite the party behind the nominee. Both Clinton's gave strong speeches for Obama but that is what usually happens - this week all of McCain's former rivals for the Republican nomination have made strong speeches in support of him.
