we must elect joe biden. each of us must be a hero for our community, for our country and then with a compassionate and intelligent president we must act together and put on his desk a bill that guarantees us all the healthcare we deserve. text vote to 30330 to learn how to vote safely because our lives depend on it. >> politics and elections can seem like be is far away things that one person doesn't have the power to change. what is happening right now in our country makes it clear how personal politics are. i discovered that when i get informed and participate, my fear gets smaller. voting is a big part of that. knowing the change you want, vote for the leaders that you think will make it happen and if you are able, if you can, help fund this campaign. go to joe biden.com and then whatever you can. with leaders like joe biden and kamala harris we can build back better here at home and once again strengthen our nation office security and standing in the world. >> i am 34 and i live in los angeles. i 2009 gr

go, joe biden. >> was joe biden your first choice in the primary? we will never know because she is gone. let's hear from deborah in kentucky. >> how are you this evening? >> i'm fine. how are you? >> ok. i am very pleased. when obama and biden were together, they took care of health care, unemployment was down, they balanced the budget. i think biden will make a great choice. >> did you vote for donald trump in 2016? >> i did not. >> why not? >> he would not have been my choice. >> thank you for calling. pamela in maine. it is about time we bring back decency to the white house. i am tired of being ashamed by donald trump. we need programs that help the american people, not enrich someone who just wants to spread his brand. donald trump is not fit for office. we have a call from seattle, independent line. good evening. >> i am voting for joe biden, but i am a little bit concerned. the democratic party has been working to tear down the african-american community. all the way to clinton and the three strikes law, all the way a harris laughing about h

biden of 2004 not the joe biden of today. listen. >> last night was about joe biden of 2004 or 2008 and they are not talking about the joe biden 2020 who has embraced aoc and bernie sanders. your taxes are going to go through the roof and he is going to bankrupt this country as he is a bridge to socialism. and they are not highlighting the policies he is running on. they are talking about what a good guy he is. he is not a good guy when he is raising taxes on 82% of american households. >> sandra: fair criticism? >> ronna mcdaniel right now is terrified because there are folks from her party speaking at our convention and that shows the unity. on one night you had bernie sanders who is making the case for joe biden. you will have elizabeth warren and barack obama, michelle obama and then you also have republicans, you saw cindy mccain yesterday in that video, you also saw john kasich and you saw colin powell. you are seeing this -- the country coming together around joe biden. i would love to pose the question to ronna mcdona

our choice is joe biden. joe helped bring us back from a recession before and he can do it2009, barack obama and joe ecen started with the worst ony depression. and when they were done, they delivereded more than six straight years of job growth. what did joe do? he accepted responsibility for impletting the recovery act. his work created a lot of new jobs and started many new companies in communities across our country. now, joe is committed to back a. how? he's given us smart, detailed plans to invest in areas vital to our future. innovative financing for modern factories and small businesses. good jobs in green energy. a modern infrastructure that brings small town and rural america the connectivity and investment others take for granted. and a plan to ensure that black americans, latino americans, native americans, women, immigrants and other communities left behind are full particip t participants in our economy and an society. economy far better suited to our changing world. better for young people. bet

joe biden. >> joe called it. we are in a battle for the soul of our nation. >> but joe knows we can never let hard times turn us against each other. >> and we can never stop doing the hard work to make things right. >> that's why we ran for office. >> that's why we ran for office. >> even when people counted us out. >> even when there had never been a latina in the nevada state senate. >> or a democrat elected as florida commissioner of agriculture in nearly three decades. >> or an openly gay man in the georgia state legislature. >> when birmingham hadn't had a mayor this young in 120 years. >> reran for office because we know the struggles american families are facing because we've lived them. >> we've lived the insecurity and the indignity of an eviction notice. >> i, like many of you, have lived the frustration of paying off student loans. we have lived the grief of losing loved ones to gun violence and the criminal justice system that unfairly targets our communities. >> we have lived that f

his version of what joe biden said. jim insult our intelligence because again, he can't speak for me, he can't speak for black americans. and the other networks like msnbc, cnn, what are they doing? a disservice to black americans because the prerequisite to go on those shows, you have to be to the mentality. an end if he wants to interview black americans with different opinions can invite me, larry and we will tell her exactly how we feel that we want to move from this democratic mind-set of extremism and we want to vote for president trump! jim clyburn has no credibility. he attacks our great president by trying to make a did don't make derogatory comment about being mussolini and a text american soldiers by calling gestapo tactics. he is a dinosaur and he needs to retire yesterday. >> jason: i certainly think so. i have the greatest respect for him but those comments are just so outrageous. but larry, these comments that i hear and especially from joe biden are so patronizing. how did they strike you? >> a course th

it's joe biden. i think back to 1992 when bill clinton ran and won on the idea of new democratic cent richly. 2,000 when barack obama ran on the hope for change. we have not heard a compelling argument for joe biden why he should be president. not a big idea. not a reason for his presidency. it seems to me that's at stake tonight. that's what is at stake in joeo biden's speech. not why donald trump should not be president but why joe biden should. >> martha: that's a great point. that's the moment. that's what you need to pull people over who may be undecided in this race. that sort of uplifting, come with me and here is why moment. i think the opportunity presents itself tonight. for joe biden. >> i agree he needs to make a casepp for himself. following up on the case made by his wife the other night. problem is though, if you do a speech to layout all of the items in your agenda and which programs you will try to put into effect, they don't inspire much. they may touch differentnt elements of the e

joe biden for president. america's progressive promise pac is responsible for the content of this a. >>> tonight's democratic convention will be pointed and personal. and there will be appearances by senator bernie sanders and congresswomanlexandria oh g ocasio-cortez. >> reporter: under current of conversations we're hearing when we are talking to democrats really across the country who are tuning into this, yes, it the democratic national convention but progressives wonder why the former republicans and moderates having such prominent roles here particularly that is going to come into sharp focus with alexandria ocasio-corteocasio-c. she'll have one minute to speak. i'm told her address was recorded last week and it will be supporting the idea of electing joe biden, even though she's not endorsed him per se raises the question, why so many moderates. the biden campaign is trying to go after women and moderates, people who voted for joe biden in 2008 and 2012 with obama. the idea they left the party in 2016

the joe biden was, at least. i don't know if he will be who we as if elected president, but this video was very powerful, voiced first by cindy mccain, the wife of the late senator john mccain. the relationship was very close. they traveled around the world together. and they dealt with foreign policy issues. and negotiations on different items when he was best president and also senator before that. but this is joe biden and the biden camp i think is trying to use the 47 years of washington as an asset, not a liability. i think next week you will see the trump administration in the trump campaign say he is a creature of the swamp. he is just a vessel for whatever it is going to be, the left. >> shannon: yeah, and on fox for former president clinton speaking tonight, he has been in and out of favor with the party and issues that he has had to deal with personally. but tonight they said, they want him on the stage and he was there. stayed to listen, this is his 11th consecutive convention speaking to an bill clint

it's joe biden. i think back to 1992 when bill clinton ran and won on the idea of new democratic cent richly. 2,000 when barack obama ran on the hope for change. we have not heard a compelling argument for joe biden why he should be president. not a big idea. not a reason for his presidency. it seems to me that's at stake tonight. that's what is at stake in joe biden's speech. not why donald trump should not be president but why joe biden should. >> martha: that's a great point. that's the moment. that's what you need to pull people over who may be undecided in this race. that uplifting, come with me and here is why moment. i think the opportunity presents itself tonight. >> i agree he needs to make a case for himself. following up on the case made by his wife the other night. if you do a speech to layout all of the items in your agenda and when programs you will try to put into effect, they don't inspire much. they may touch different element. you don't want it to sound like a state of the union add

we know a lot about joe biden and what this pick tells us about joe biden. and it tells us that he is willing to bridge a demographic gap. he does want to unite the democratic party. and, quite frankly, one of the things that my sources were telling me that one of his concerns was in picking someone was not only loyalty, do no harm and all the rest of it, was that he wanted a woman who he thought would be tough enough to take what donald trump and his campaign would be throwing at her. and if you look at kamala harris, she's tough, and she's been tough. and, in fact, she unleashed it, i don't want to overdo this, but she unleashed it on joe biden. and one of his advisers said this shows you that he's nothing like trump. because if someone had done that to trump, he would have forgotten them forever. biden said, you know what, okay, she did that, and she's tough. that is what he is looking for. don't forget, biden is mr. empathy in this campaign. you heard him talk about his son beau. even in announcing the pick of kamala harris. kamala harris is a tough-as-n

joe biden has been in michigan. a state he has to win. i am glad you are saying that about law enforcement. it breaks my heart to see what's happened. first it was seattle, portland, minneapolis, chicago. and new york. but why is no one talking about the fact that you don't see republicans protesting and picketing their convention. why is it it only goes one way. the democratic party makes republicans to be such terrible people that aren't sensitive and cling to their guns. they say they are violent people because they enjoy a second amendment. why don't you see republicans in delaware intimidating people as they are leaving that convention hall? it's rather remarkable. now he's behind be law enforcement. yet he single police union in this country -- and they don't typically endorse people. they have all come out in support of my father. in wisconsin one of the big police unions endorsed my father and i accepted it on his behalf. they put on the handcuffs. these men and women are the greatest people we have in this

this is joe biden's third run for president. the first two attempts ended in embarrassing disasters. the third was headed at high speed in that direction and then a series of unforeseen flukes in a highly crowded primary field. the last in the race. he was clearly shocked by his own victory. on election night, the night he clinched the nomination in march,h, biden was so rattled he mistook his sister for his wife during the acceptance speech. at the time, joe biden's relative unpopularity seemed like aro major problem for democrats. this is politics, after all. people who tend to have the most support tend to win. so if you're choosing a presidential nominee, you think you'd want someone with built-in constituency, a base of passionate voters you can count on election day. as it turns out, that's the last thing leaders of the modern democratic party wanted. they already had a candidate like that and his name was bernie sanders. they did everything they could to stop him. no. what they wanted instead was someone they could contro

to run as joe biden's vice president. we didn't see it coming. just last night on the show we told you susan rice will likely to get the job. rice is a hardened partisan but she's not stupid. more to the point, rice's sincere beliefs whether you like them or not. kamala harris is the opposite of that. harris may be the single most transactional human being in america. there are time-share salesmen you would trust more than kamala harris. you could find payday lenders who are more sincere. so it seemed inconceivable that given his current state, joe biden to someone so transparently one-dimensional as kamala harris. someone is he is. it would be the first entirely hollow presidential ticket in american history and we thought it would never happen. but they are doing it anyway. biden-harris, that's what they are going with. the choice tells you a lot about the current state of the democratic party. america is still technically a democracy yet either biden nor harris has ever been popular with actual voters. this is joe bide

that is joe biden. >> joe called it. we are in the battle for the soul of our nation. >> joe knows we can never let hard times turn us against each other. >> we can never stop doing hard work to make things right. >> that is why we ran for office. >> even when people counted us out. >> even when there had never been a latina in the nevada state senate. >> or democrat elected to the florida commission about work culture. >> when birmingham hadn't had a mayor this young in 120 years. >> we ran for office because we know the struggles american families are facing. because we have lived them. >> we have lived the insecurity, the indignity of an eviction notice. bux like many of you, i have lived the frustration of paying off student loans. >> we have lived the grief of losing loved ones to gun violence and the criminal justice system that unfairly targets our communities. >> we have lived the feeling of helplessness on someone you love is very sick and health care is a matter of life and death. >> joe biden

when the choice came down to joe biden, i know what joe biden has done in the past. some things i agree with, some things i don't, but i think he is the one -- he does understand what a leader's role is, and i think he can fit in that role. host: what did you make of his vice presidential choice? in a strongs supporter of kamala harris. wasn't have preferred -- i would have preferred val demings, maybe amy klobuchar. i understand why he selected her and i think the two of them will do a job. they will bring the change we need. alabaster, in alabama, supporter of president trump. caller: how are you? host: i am well. thanks for asking. caller: i didn't watch all of it , i watched a good portion of it, and i still have not heard their agenda even though we heard little snippets of it from bernie sanders. i am sure joe biden is a very likable guy, but what they are going to do is they are going to have the government take over all the jails, all of our health care. the government is going to take care of everything, free school tuition. it is not free, though. itthe tax

and for joe biden next president. all the conversation using the # the nc political. let's get started. >> thanks for having me. >> you joined the campaign in may but let's jump back to the primaries. the biden campaign developed a bit of a reputation and then the pandemic hit and then there are famous videos of biden. at the time, there was unsolicited advice about the improvement. what did the campaign learn? >> the biden campaign became the presumptive nominee, there were a lot of challenges with the pandemic happening around that time, this was something i was experiencing at the same time before i joined the campaign. there's much less about what they were and work doing and more about everyone figuring out how to do fully online and virtual. when i came on board, beginning of may, i met around 20, 25 very talented, very tired digital staffers, i started working with the digital director for the biden campaign and he was more than ready to hire. from there, we started building a plan, where are the areas we want

joe biden did that thing tonight. unbelievable. >> what struck me was that he didn't look like a guy who was reading a speech. >> he did seem to answer the charges that have been come from the trump campaign that suggest he's not up to the job mentally. >> he didn't stumble. >> biden made out through. you know, expectations were low, set low by everyone. gregg: we're going to be taking it up next with trump campaign communications director tim murtaugh. and lou's new book, you've got to get it, "the trump century: how our president changed the course of history forever," available for preorder. get your copies at thetrumpcentury.com, amazon.com and barnesandnoble.com. we'll be right back. ♪ ♪ hold on one second... sure. okay... okay! safe drivers save 40%!!! guys! guys! check it out. safe drivers save 40%!!! safe drivers save 40%! safe drivers save 40%!!! that's safe drivers save 40%. it is, that's safe drivers save 40%. - he's right there. - it's him! he's here. he's right here. - hi! - hi. hey! - that's totally

biden against joe biden and, of course, some of her positions that don't coincide with what joe biden's message is here's the interesting take i think, for this election it will be a close election where every vote will legitimately count. i know we say that every year. this will be the closest election i think in our nation's history. for joe biden, he needed to present a vice president candidate that was going to excite people and everyone else on this network has said the same thing, kamala harris, senator kamala harris is not exciting to people and specifically, not exciting to young african-americans. i was on a social media site called the shae room 20 million followers on instagram. and african-americans go on this site every day. one person posted this yesterday. don't let the complex jade you. she is responsible for locking up plenty of black folks. this got 18,000 likes on the shade room. they want to get these young people to support the biden candidacy. i have a feeling because of kamala harris being chosen, especially someone who has been problematic when it comes to crimin

joe biden. these are the people who lost out to him, gathering to say, with maybe slightly strained smiles, what a great guy he is.> nd all of us, whether you're progressives, moderates or conservatives, have got togeome er to defeat this president. reporter: and that's been a driving force of democratic strategists at this convex, presenting joe biden as empathetic, decentnd yes, a counterpoint to donald trump. >> if you entrust me with the, presiden will draw on the best of us, not the worst. i'll be an ally of the light, not the darkness. it's time for us, for we the people, to come togher. and make no mistake. uned we can and will overcome this season of darknessn america. reporter: this wasn't aec policy-heavy s but clear differences on the environment, the economy immigration and how toheal wit the covid outbreak were apparent. his first tilt at becoming ater presidential candidate, joe biden could finally say these words. >> it was with great honor and humility, i accept this nomination f

there are folks who are against joe biden and i don't think joe biden is concerned about people who are against him. i think the democrat party is focused on who they can get to the polls, opposed to begging those who are not coming out, no way in hell. you're either riding with biden or you're not. a lot of folks may stay home. obviously people will be voting for president trump. i think this season is a real clear line, either you're for it or against it. it's quite clear. we only have 83 days left. i think at this point most folks have figured it out. i don't think there's a lot of folks who were wavering one way or the other. but kamala harris will bring new voters to the table who are excited about her possibly historic win that joe biden just maybe can't motivate. todd: that bambi comment will resonate in my mind for the next 83 days. thank you, tezlyn. >> thank you. jillian: president trump doubling down on his promise to send federal backup to american cities under siege. todd: seattle's top cop said she will step down over the lack of respect for police. marianne rafferty is li

joe biden has a lead right now, not an insurmountable one. the task of bringing down joe biden as either someone who is weak or someone who is a captive of the party's left wing, that is the task i think that republicans face over the next four days. chris: juan, the trump campaign thinks it can capitalize on some issues, some problems that they think the democrats largely ignored in their convention especially urban violence which you just heard me discussing with senator kuhns. how big an opening did democrats leave for the republicans by really failing to address what's going on in the streets of chicago and new york and portland and minneapolis? >> well, chris, i think they had a successful convention because they spent time talking about the issues that americans care about, which is the virus, which is jobs, which i is reopening schools. when president trump focuses on that racially charged term, urban violence, i think he's trying to distract from his failure on those core issues by raising or stirring up racial tension. i mean, clearl

is joe biden enough to get them vote? >> there's no question that the gen z was more excited about a bernie sanders who they deem to be more progressive, but i believe gen z are more anti- trump than they may be for joe biden, but they are slated to go in this election more than the previous election. while joe biden and kamala harris may not give them the excitement the progressives do, they realize how important it is to get trump out and i think i will be enough for them to get in there and vote for the biden harris ticket. jillian: isabel, i think a lot of voters in general will be excited to get out and vote. i don't know that it's necessarily just one side. what to do you think? >> absolutely. something that unfortunately has them and covered much is the fact that gen z is poised to become the most conservative generation in the us history since world war ii and countless studies have proven that to be true. we have grown up with an error generation with countless instances of chaos since 911 to covid-19 so therefor

he praises joe biden big time. but what else the former president of the united states has to say in his remarks, i think will be very, very powerful. >> it will, and it was about four years ago. that then president obama, he was speaking at the congressional black caucus gala for the last time as president. he told the largely black audience that he would consider it a personal insult if black americans didn't turn out to vote for hillary clinton. he said, you want to secure my legacy, go vote for hillary clinton, we need big numbers of black voters. guess what, the black community did not turn out for hillary clinton the way that obama and hillary clinton wanted them to. and i think that that stung barack obama. that bothered him a lot. not just the black community obviously, the election of trump. that's a big thing that i'm going to be looking for tonight. how was he going to respond to the fact that donald trump's election is in many ways a rebuke of him. >> that's true. speaking of a rebuke of somebody. this

they look where joe biden's. joe biden with serious clarifications for his outrageous remarks yesterday. he is in his basement and has a lifetime of failed policies that have lost jobs, if you think of his failed trade policies that have affected the military. so yes, the media will cover it but voters are on the policies and results and certainly in my district, joe biden has been holding low and president trump is polling higher than he ever has before. my district of bellwether, to vote to elect whoever becomes the president. >> harris: that is really interesting too. and i am of course my audience knows about the battles to protect those in nursing homes very early in the covid-19 pandemic, as you were taking on the governor to make sure that they were getting it right instead of putting people in harm's way in nursing homes. i just wanted to throw that in. i want to get to this because you mentioned it, women getting elected to congress right now fewer than 25% of lawmakers in the house and senate are female

hampshire.lo >> we trust joe biden. joe provides the leadership necessary to bring us back from this awful pandemic. joe has a plan to attack global climate change once and for all. and joe will restore honesty, decency, and trust to the white house. reunite all americans, and build a better future for all. the great state of new hampshire awards nine delegates to our friend and neighbor n bernie sanders, and 24 delegates to the next president of united states states, joe biden. >> new jersey. >> we been hit hard by covid but we are coming back. but we have to be smart. we have to listen to the experts. and we have to have a president who has a plan. that's why in memory of all those we've lost, and solidarity with those who are sick or struggling, and in eternal gratitude for our heroic front-line workers, new jersey casts five votes for senator bernie sanders and 139 votes for the next president of the united states, joe biden. >> new mexico. >> greetings and good evening. my name is derek lente, state representative

that is joe biden. he has the courage we respect and the commitment to working americans we need now. on behalf of our governor, i am honored to cast connecticut's 75 votes for our next president, joe biden. >> delaware. passes.are >> delaware passes. democrats abroad. >> we represent millions of americans who live outside the united states. americans abroad can make a difference in the states that will decide this year's elections. we need your help to elect a president who will restore our standing around the world. casting 10-- we are votes for bernie sanders and seven votes for joe biden. >> district of columbia. >> welcome to the best city in the world. has raised d.c. families, paid taxes and served in the military, just like every american in the 50 states. the house of representatives just passed an historic piece of legislation to make washington, d.c. the 51st state. plaza,ack lives matter we proudly cast one vote for bernie sanders and 43 votes for the next president of the united states, joe

i have known joe biden for almost 40 years. dad's, myiend of my sister worked for him, my family has known his family and he has been personally, to me come a great friend and mentor. decency and integrity and every thing he does, he does with a singular passion to make the lives of those around him better. he has been tested, personally and professionally. he has confronted devastating loss, finding purpose in the darkness and inspiring others along the way to do so as well. and i can speak from experience because when my husband unexpectedly passed away at the age of 52, it was joe biden who found me in a hospital and called me to let me know that things were going to be ok and that i to can serve one day. joe believes in the power of the american spirit, the power to overcome anything and everything . and as he often says, the american people have never, ever let us down and they never will. times,in difficult, dark but with joe biden leading us, we will conquer any challenge. when i gave my remarks the other day, i started

and that's what separates him from people like joe biden. joe biden just happens to be the nominee. there are a lot of other really good people that are in this country, and some of them are not democrats. but in this particular instance, this president seemed to feel that irrespective of what may be going on around him, it's always got to be about him and not the other person. i think that the country has seen this week watching this convention, they have seen the goodness in this man. and i believe that that's why he is going to be a very successful candidate and he will be sworn into the presidency come january because it's time to restore goodness in the office of the president and decency and respect around the world. we have been held out as a beacon for years, decades. here we are now being laughed at by the powers surrounding because our allies don't know how to trust us. we have to restore dignity, respect and goodness in the office of the president, and i think that's what we get with joe biden. >> congressman clyburn, i appreciate your time as always, sir. thank you. >> t

that is joe biden. the biden's entire family business if you will for the last decade whether it be his brother his son is close to power and being able to benefit monetarily from that power in china's just the beginning. we know about burisma and we are finding more about them. china is a winning issue especially in the industrial midwest. when those plans went overseas the biden family got rich and they said nice things about the country that i'm put this virus at one our country. steve: lease if you take that and added together with what we have been saying in revealing about kamala harris and the machine politicians. you put that together that's a powerful drain the swamp kind of argument raised just as it was in 2016, don't you think? >> 100% and i think joe biden tries to act like he is this nice guy and that's how he receives -- how he is perceived by the media. i'll give you two examples about the clear profits of the vice president that he didn't care because it didn't impact him and his son wa

that's joe biden. i know joe, because he cares about everybody else before himself. >> you know what else joe knows? joe knows about pandemics. in 2014 he helped stop the spread of ebola, and brought the world together to keep it contained. after that success, knowing this would happen again, vice president biden and president obama assembled a pandemic playbook to make sure that america was prepared and protected. the trump administration disbanded the pandemic response team that was given to them. americans have died and lost their livelihoods because of it. we the people deserve a president who believes in science, that recognizes the threat of covid. who has a plan to get us through it. and that is joe biden. we're grateful that across the country there are responsible leaders who are stepping up. one of them provided clear direction and memorable power points, new york's governor andrew cuomo. >> hello. today's monday, day 170, new yorkers were ground zero for the covid virus and have gone from on

it was joe biden. and that goes to not only has kindness but it also goes to how much he cares about our government and what people are saying and that even when he is at home at night, he is watching and he cares. but amy, we all want to know, did your mother watched the speech? you rememberwhen we were mother watched the speech? you remember when we were waiting to go on, it worked out to where i was there the same time he was and he pulled me aside and pointed to somebody who we both knew who was working on my campaign, but he had known from before and let me know that that was somebody who had gone through a family tragedy, that joe somehow knew about, and just thought it was important for me to know that about somebody who was working with me. and over time somebody who was working with me. and overtime i've somebody who was working with me. and over time i've realised that itjust basic to me. and over time i've realised that it just basic to who me. and over time i've realised that itjust basic t

joe biden has decided on a running mate. sources tell cnn he has revealed his choice to top advisers and the announcement could come as soon as today, really any minute now, potentially this hour. moments ago we also learned the biden campaign has now informed some of the contenders of his decision, and congresswoman karen bass was told by biden himself that she is not the pick resources say. let's start with cnn's jeff zeleny. so, jeff, what are you learning about this decision? >> joe biden of course has been looking for a running mate of his own for three or four months now. and we were told this afternoon that he has indeed made a decision on his choice. he informed a small handful of advisers earlier today that he had indeed settled on his choice. that sets into motion the rollout plan. what this means is it is going to be a historic choice whoever he decides. why? because he pledged some five months ago that he would pick a woman as his running mate. so whoever he decides, so that is indeed going to be historic. but mo

joe biden. you can think of this sort of like survivor on the out interviews of everybody who got voted off the island. bernie, don't you laugh, i have questions for you like why did my girlfriend like you more than she likes me? >> because i am smarter than you, that is the obvious answer. senator sanders and klobuchar, you actually served with joe biden in the senate. i'm wondering if you have any memories of what he was like as a colleague in the senate? >> i remember one night when i was given one of those floor speeches -- giving one of those floor speeches. no one was watching. i was alone and i gave my speech to a complete empty chamber. i walked out of there and i said i wonder if i was -- if my mom was even watching this on c-span. at that moment, the cell phone rings and i thought my mom was watching on c-span. do you know who it was? joe biden. that goes to not only his kindest for calling me and being a mentor but it goes to how much he cares about our government and what people were

is that joe biden is very strong candidate. you seen him out there pretty saw him outside we will see him today and defeat donald trump. i would just break with everything that you sort of oncharacterized . but i do thin, you bring up some points that are what trump is trying to bench . that the mail in ballots are going to work . thank you so deeply disappointed because i think joe biden mike say, were going to be like a drum. host: we convinces you that joe biden is up for the task. bradley: only seen again jillian debates. obviously he won a very competitive primary with a field of very strong candidates . and simply pandemic, y'all act like since march, there's no campaign beforehand. this just that the case for joe biden has been out there, his strongest attributes are that he nhas experienced and compassionate leadership and people want normalcy. ornothing that we are in at this moment in an economic procession in a pandemic feels normal. and joe biden is going provide the vision and the leadership and i think that's wher

this was never the joe biden year. 1988 was a joe biden year. 1992 was a joe biden year. maybe 2008 was a joe biden year. it was never supposed to be now, and yet you never know when your moment comes. so you've got to say it's a remarkable journey. he's had an extraordinary career that suddenly now has gotten a little more extraordinary. >> all right, chuck, andrea, everybody stand by. we're just getting started. we've had the official business, joe biden is now officially the nominee of the democratic party. more speeches. we are awaiting speeches from john kerry, colin powell, two former secretaries of state and dr. jill biden just ahead. we'll take a quick break and are back after this. hey allergy muddlers... achoo! ...do your sneezes turn heads? try zyrtec... ...it starts working hard at hour one... and works twice as hard when you take it again the next day. zyrtec muddle no more. i'm looking for my client. i'mi'm so sorry.nt. hey! hey man, you're here! you don't trust me here in vegas, do you? uh, well, i thought we had a breakthrough with the volkswagen. we did,

cross talking joe biden i'm joined by my guest jan kearns in new york she is a g.o.p. strategist contributor to the daily caller as well as founder of women for a great america in washington we have jason nichols he's a democratic political strategist also in washington we cross to walter smith logic he is a answer coalition organizer rules in effect that means you can jump in anytime you want and i always appreciate jan let me go to you 1st i mean i said in my introduction here i mean you know you have you have a lot of gaffes coming from joe biden and he's been known for and ok it's not you know all of a sudden but the intensity of them are is mounting and that maybe just because of the media's watching more closely i'm trying to be really fair here but we i think we have every right to know about the mental facilities the capabilities of someone that is running for the highest office in the land i mean how do you come out on this go ahead john. well i agree i said last tuesday on super tuesday that the good news was for joe biden he won the primaries and i also said

joe biden would've done xyz a month after trump acted joe biden is still talking about it. he didn't say anything about we should be getting this or doing that, he didn't talk about any of that. joe biden doesn't know what he's talking about. got exemplified again, by their response h1n1, which by any reasonable metric, and thank god it was a less deadly disease because they were so slow to act, it would've been a much greater disaster but you're never to hear about that from a media that's cheering for joe biden. >> you're so right about his background and experience. as i sit here listening to you and i monitor these things pretty carefully, over the last half-century, i can think of one great profound thing that he has done. and you're exactly right, his own guy ron, just a year ago they said they were lucky, they screwed up every step of the way. just to give a comparison, the president today because he's in the private sector has already contracted with companies to manufacture vials and syringes. he's already contracted with companies to distribute the vaccine once we

. >> joe biden is america tough. joe biden can restore the soul of america. >> he understands redemption and he knows resilience. barack obama leaned on joe for his strength and decency and you can too. >> the future of our planet is at stake. >> donald trump is the wrong president for our country. he is clearly in over his head. >> biden is just a trojan horse for socialism. they sold off your dreams and gave away your jobs. now you have a president who is fighting for you. >> attacks on donald trump dominating night one of the democratic national convention. good morning, thanks for joining us. todd: the two our virtual event with the present of nominee joe biden only making one appearance. jillian: griff jenkins breaks down the highlights. >> reporter: good morning. the first night in the virtual convention, thousands of cheering delegates camped in their respective state areas, something of the new york times called in online awards show. it was complete with celebrity, democrats oberstar's, republican in the lea

to come on look i mean this wasn't an easy decision for joe biden was it i mean harris attacked biden in that very 1st t.v. debate that we saw he was very upset very angry but he seems to put that behind him what does this say about joe biden he doesn't hold grudges doesn't. no he doesn't and it also tells us there joe biden he is a political veteran he's been through this before he's been on bended bait stage and has taken his own set of hard blows when he was running against barack obama but he has his eyes on the prize he understands what's at stake here and so he was looking for a running mate there would complement his own skill set there would be simpatico as he's been saying and i think he's found that income or harris and i mean what does this mean for women for black people and joe biden supporters because this issue has been simmering for about a year amongst the chattering classes doesn't it. yeah you know i'm actually in actuality joe biden is on the same time line is previous candidates have been hillary clinton announced her running mate 2 days before the convention and

biden joe biden is reported to have said he didn't want anyone that would challenge him too much on the issues they basically said he wanted a vice president presidential because someone was basically seeing eye to eye to him and she brings a lot of experience as and as a attorney general of california as a district attorney of san francisco for that she has she knows how to argue she knows how to craft the question every saw in the report she knows to ask pointed questions and joe biden wants a fierce debater and that something come on harris brings to the table. joe biden had a lot of choice when it came to picking a running mate how are democrats what are democrats make of his choice here you know he did have a lot of choice he already promised months ago he was going to pick a woman so really that we are just looking at a field of very qualified women. being the vice presidential candidate now or the presumptive candidate now obviously the democratic party back that it's not just up to joe biden who becomes his his nominee so the party is clearly behind him on this but the party

you know, the biden campaign wanted to make sure that this remains about joe biden. that is always a discussion that takes place with hillary clinton not wanting to get a vice-presidential candidate that was going to out shine you in terms of the campaign or overshadow you. so we'll have to see if kamala harris. i'm sure that was part of the discussion that took place between biden and biden's folks and kamala harris and her folks. look she has a role to play here. it is to amplify joe biden's message, to attack donald trump and mike pence and i think she knows what her role is going to be. now the question whether she ends up being a team player. again if the biden campaign or joe biden wins the election, what role she ends up taking on because the vice-presidential role as we've seen over the course of history can be very influential or not very influential depending on what the president decides. connell: while you talk about the idea of whether, how much influence she will have but also how she acted during her own campaign, one of the criticisms of kamala harris
