00:00
It's in praises of Democratic Party tycoons like former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and
00:06
former President Bill Clinton.
00:08
The ex-social studies teacher and football coach of Mankato West High in Minnesota formally
00:13
accepted the Democratic Party vice presidential nomination for the 2024 November elections.
00:19
VOA's Kane Faribault was at the United Center on the third day of the Democratic National
00:24
Convention and he filed this report.
00:29
During the third day of Democrats National Convention in Chicago, U.S. Senator Cory Booker
00:34
from New Jersey outlined the night's theme.
00:37
Welcome to night three.
00:40
And tonight is about freedom.
00:43
While some of the programming provided speakers opportunities to address topics including
00:48
reproductive rights, environmental issues and border security, much of the messaging
00:53
focused on what Democrats say is the choice in the November election.
00:58
Kamala Harris for the people.
01:07
And the other guy who's proved even more than the first go around that he's about me, myself
01:19
and I.
01:20
Former President Bill Clinton was one of the most anticipated speakers of the evening.
01:25
Clinton, who has attended every convention for Democrats since 1972, drew from his own
01:30
experience in the White House to explain why he believes Vice President Kamala Harris is
01:36
the best choice for president.
01:38
Kamala Harris will work to solve our problems, seize our opportunities, ease our fears and
01:45
make sure every single American, however they vote, has a chance to chase their dreams.
01:55
But the key moment for Democrats was hearing from Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who accepted
02:00
his party's nomination as Vice President.
02:04
It's the honor of my life to accept your nomination for Vice President of the United States.
02:12
For many in the crowd and those watching the convention around the country, Walz's
02:16
speech was a sort of introduction.
02:19
Now, I grew up in Butte, Nebraska, a town of 400 people.
02:28
I had 24 kids in my high school class and none of them went to Yale.
02:37
But I'll tell you what, growing up in a small town like that, you learn how to take care
02:42
of each other.
02:43
Walz, a military veteran, former teacher and American high school football and basketball
02:49
coach, highlighted how these parts of his personal biography prepared him for a life
02:54
in politics.
02:56
But it was those players and my students who inspired me to run for Congress.
03:01
They saw in me what I had hoped to instill in them, a commitment to the common good,
03:08
an understanding that we're all in this together, and the belief that a single person can make
03:17
a real difference for their neighbors.
03:19
As the final speaker, Walz punctuated the freedom theme of the night.
03:24
But when we Democrats talk about freedom, we mean the freedom to make a better life
03:29
for yourself and the people that you love.
03:32
Freedom to make your own health care decisions, and yeah, your kids' freedom to go to school
03:43
without worrying about being shot dead in the hall.
03:49
Democrats wrap up this convention on Thursday evening with a marquee moment.
03:53
The acceptance speech of the party's nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris.
03:58
Cain Fairbaugh, VOA News, from the Democratic National Convention in Chicago.
