Hillary Clinton, Bernie Sanders Get Family Support At The DNC

Last night, Hillary Clinton became the official Democratic presidential nominee, and the first woman ever nominated by a major political party for president.

Former President Bill Clinton delivered the keynote address. Overall, his speech — in which he promoted his wife as “the best darn change-maker I ever met in my entire life” — was well received.
