DNC Putting Families First, Bernie Rallys For Hillary, Michelle Obama Speaks at DNC

The theme of the first day of the Democratic National Convention was "Putting Families First," with speakers touching on a wide range of topics.
Speakers touched on everything from immigration to drug addiction to LGBT discrimination. And for a day that started with boos— the more the discussion turned to equality— the more applause.
City Council President Darrell Clarke says it's the "issues" that will bring the party together.

Seeking to bridge deep Democratic divides, Bernie Sanders embraced his former rival Hillary Clinton Monday night as a champion for the same economic causes that enlivened his supporters, signaling it was time for them, too, to rally behind her in the campaign against Republican Donald Trump.
Sanders joined a high-wattage lineup of speakers, including first lady Michelle Obama who made a forceful, impassioned case for the Democratic nominee. Mrs. Obama’s address all but wiped away earlier tumult in the convention hall that had exposed lingering tensions between Clinton and Sanders supporters.

Michelle Obama cast the presidential race as one between a positive role model for children — in Hillary Clinton — and a damaging one — in Donald Trump — in the marquee speech on the Democratic National Convention’s opening night.
The first lady never mentioned Trump by name, but leveraging her popularity, she made a rare foray into partisan politics to knock the Republican nominee.
Obama condemned “the hateful language that we hear from public figures on TV,” saying that “our motto is, when they go low, we go high.”
Obama in a departure from the political attacks on display all day — made the case that, because of her character and temperament, Clinton is the role model she’d like her daughters to see in the Oval Office.
