I'm pretty independent when it comes to politics and saw both conventions. I have to say, there was 1000 times more substance, organization of the presentations, and powerful speeches that came from the DNC convention.

I cannot understate how drastic the two conventions were. The GOP platform of fear and division is extremely old and quite simply, people are just tired of it. The DNC's message was one of togetherness was effective and inspires people.

Objectively, at the end of the day, people are just more receptive to being inspired rather than focusing on each others differences. This difference alone is enough to give the democrats another 4 years in the white house. And, the GOP's response is we don't care and we're going to continue to do the same. The GOP's tactics do not work, but they refuse to recognize this downfall and will continue to lose national elections because of it.

I didn't hear any fear or division at the GOP. I heard a lot of gloom and doom from the DNC.

To each their own.

Is there a website that will compare the two... the DNC and RNC convention content? I'd be interested in knowing which one used more "doom and gloom" words, versus words that were positive in nature.

The Democrats seemed to be pretty negative, considering that one of their own has been in charge the past 8 years.

As for the content, I found it lacking. She did not address any of her negatives, such as the emails, Libya, etc.

She doesn't owe you that

This is her nomination - get real

Hmm, does someone have the links for Trumps and Clinton's speeches? There are sights that do word maps. We could always see what the most dominant words in each speech are that way.

Was that to woo over more middle-class White Americans?

There was one within a few hours of Trump's speech. Hopefully ATS will suss it out soon.

a reply to: Spiramirabilis

Your thread was a success.

Thanks to us Clinton critics cause there sure weren't too many Clinton voters.

Your welcome

I was wondering about that? Maybe they'll log in soon, post speech.

Actually Hillary's speech was on Politico before she even started.

EDIT: Or maybe you didn't meant that, instead meant the text comparison.

I missed Chelsea. How was she, compared to the Trump "children"?

Far less Stepford-y

YES! That's the descriptive I couldn't quite pull out of my head.

Trumps kids were more Stepford-y.

Chelsea's always been a bit shy, protected, and kept out of the limelight. She did her thing, she presented herself well, and spoke clearly. But, its not really her thing.

We were hoping for a compare/contrast word map. Venn diagram thingy.

This thread was hilarious - and pretty much what I expected

Based on the dedicated and steady flow of sniping and whining - I think we can safely say that it smells of sour grapes and fear

:-)

This may be my favorite DNC convention picture

1997 congress voted in her program to insure children The Childrens Health Insurance Program insures over eight million children today.

During her time at Wellesley college she became aware that there were children with handicaps who were being denied an education. She worked for several years going door to door finally securing the interest and in the community to set up special education programs.

She worked on another project at the community level to put councilors in elementary schools so that children with problems at home could talk and perhaps get help if they were being abused.

After 911 as senator she went to Washington to procure funds to help rebuild NYC. Which until then had not received any.
Years later when first responders started to get illness from exposure to toxic fumes she again went to Washington to get additional funds to help with healthcare for firefighters and police. They were so grateful for her tireless work they gave her a special award.

That's a bit of her record of working with people.

If you really wanted to know. Unless you were not serious with your question.

Logically, wouldn't we expect that the challenging party would be more negative about how things are going? It would be amazing if the DNC came even close to the RNC in words of dissatisfaction.

Maybe they don't want to go round and round with the quite vocal anti-Clinton group that is pervasive on ATS?
