Dems Convention needs to be the total opposite of this. Positivity, Ideas, Future, Unity, Uplifting,

Going last gives the Dems the ability leave a lasting impression on the country. I know some may disagree, but we need to kill them with kindness. I know we have to contrast with Trump, but when a speaker talks about him just use his own words against him, but do it smart calm manner. Vitriol and angry faces will turn folks off. We need a joyous hopeful atmosphere at our convention. We should not do what the republicans are doing. "HILLARY IS THE DEVIL"

People genuinely want to be hopeful about the future. Even when things currently aren't going well for them personally. After all the hate speech. We need a party at our convention.

today in Michigan during the ad breaks from the GOP convention (on MSNBC). I saw it twice in the same hour this afternoon.

Just devastating.
