I hardly think either party would want his family to speak.
From a Politico article listing DNC Convention speakers

I am so sick of Sandra Bland being lumped in with these other people. Sandra Bland killed herself! No cop did that to her, though the jail was negligent in allowing her in a room with a trash bag. It's not on the same level.

Yeah, I guess I'm just that naive.

Maybe it was Obama's suggestion.

Real nice liberals. The RNC had the mother of a Benghazi warrior and Marcus Latrell, SEAL hero.

The difference in the parties is SO CLEAR right now.

The Lawless Left vs the Law & Order Right.




This is the extent of Leftist values.

Apparently they will have a trio of hood rat mothers.

Among the names of speakers were Gwen Carr, the mother of Eric Garner; Sybrina Fulton, the mother of Trayvon Martin; and Lezley McSpadden, the mother of Michael Brown, which Democrats have dubbed, “Mothers of Movement” for their activism after the death of their sons.

Thanks, Katygirl.

Do you think Fox will interview cops during the DNC like they're interviewing people who oppose Trump tonight?

Some of her voters too I gather.

Accurate description.

I don't know. I doubt it. I wonder if Fox News is pulling people from the protesters outside the convention who are willing to be interviewed. I'd love to see Sheriff Clarke from Wisconsin being interviewed. He was great on CNN, though Don Lemmon barely let him get a word in edgewise.

I could see the Clintons wanting that since they are trying to get votes from both sides of the aisle. Or maybe Hillary's handlers are hoping they can get enough minority votes they don't need independents. They could be right this year. We will see.

Clarke was one of the first speakers this evening.
