Wow. Best Damn TV Show I've Seen in a long Time.

It's got it all...

A truly evil villain intent on destroying the world.

A deadly disease decimating civilization.

Despicable racist thugs roaming the streets and countryside.

Everyday heroes of every stripe struggling to survive.

An unlikely Hero stepping onto the stage from the wings.

Tears. Fears. Heartbreak.

Singers and poets crying out and singing American Pie.

And underlying it all, a toughness, a tenacity, a will to help ALL human beings beat all foes and save the world...

Kudos to the creative visionaries who came up with this format and storyline, and are bringing us the FIRST truly 21st Century Political Convention.

Go Joe & Kamala. We The People have your backs.

So many regular folks being given a podium. Downside: we're showing the republicans how to do it!
