Political heir. But the president and Vice President delivered a onetwo punch to republican donald trump. The threats are too great. The times are too uncertain. To let donald trump as president of the United States. The donald is not really a plans guy. This guy doesnt have a clue about the middle class. Hes not really a facts guy, either. Only one person in this election who will help you. I ask you to do for Hillary Clinton what you did for me. Shes always there shes always been there i ask you to carry her the same way you carried me. God willing, Hillary Clinton will write the next chapter. There has never been a man or a woman, not me, not bill, nobody, more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as president of the United States of america. The president and Vice President overshadowing at times the newly minted Vice President ial nominee. Introducing himself to america, senator tim kaine offered an opening to republicans unhappy with their nominee. Any party that would nominate donald trump for president has moved too far away from his party of lincoln and i tell you, if any of you are looking for that party of lincoln, weve got a home for you right here in the Democratic Party a lot to talk about this morning, including the big speech tonight from Hillary Clinton. With me here in philadelphia, Chris Jansing and Steve Kornacki, along with nbc senior political editor, mark murray. Friends, thank you for being with me. Steve, let me start with you. What struck out at you yesterday during this day of sometimes really emotional speeches . Yeah. I thought actually joe bidens speech probably stood out the most to me. It was a an impassioned speech. I think by his standards, a little more concise than were used to. But he really had a message he wanted to deliver about the middle class. A message aimed at working class voters. And i think thats something, as i was listening to the speech, it struck me, it was wednesday night, after 9 00. And it was the first time we had really seen a featured speech at this convention this week, going after those blue collar voters. And some of the polling out this week that shows donald trump polling, even with even slightly ahead of Hillary Clinton. What hes doing it with, blue collar, white voters. Big numbers with him, bigger than we have seen from republicans. So there is a weak spot there for democrats and i think joe biden might have started to address that. Do you think that it was, steve, unusual, that he was really the only one addressing that . Yeah. I mean, i think its this is the party. If you go way back, if youre going back a couple generations, fdrs party, the new deal party, this was all about economic populism, all about Getting Union voters, getting working class voters. I think the first two nights, there were a lot of messages about sort of social liberalism, social activism, a newer generation of democrats that are coming up. Theyre motivated, it seems, more by those issues. But you think of those older blue collar voters in a pennsylvaniaohio states, critical states where trump is running pretty well by now. Joe biden speaking to them. And president obama was really in his element last night. He can deliver a speech like very few politicians can. He was really, i think, effective at talking about donald trump, someone who he says is not even really a republican. Lets listen to some of this. Does anyone really believe that a guy who spent his seven yea 720 years on this earth who showed no regard for working people is suddenly going to be your champion, your voice . If so, you should vote for him. If you want someone with a lifelong track record of fighting for better wages and a bigger voice for workers and stronger regulations on wall street, then you should vote for Hillary Clinton. So you think its going to be more effective to separate trump from the Republican Party, or make trump the Republican Party . Well, you know, its interesting. I think the point that a lot of democrats have been making, and we heard it from the president , as well, that this is not the Republican Party. You heard what tim kaine said. So far away from the party of lincoln. What theyre saying is, we can be respectful of each other and disagree. This guy is just off the reservation. Hes off of any reservation that politics knows. Thats what they want to push. And they also want to push, and i think steve hit on a key point here. When you look at the states that are really going to be contested, like ohio, no republican is going to win the presidency without winning ohio, the Trump Organization sees an opening with those White Working Class voters, the Traditional Union voters, the families of those voters, who whether or not theyre still in unions, still feel that draw, but also who have not felt the effects of this recovery. Thats something that the clinton camp knows. They know theyre going to have to fight back against that and thats a lot of what you heard last night. The president in the sound bite we heard there is talking, if you really believe he is of champion of the working people, youre wrong. Interesting that they would have to the democrats, kind of point that out. Absolutely. Because that has been their core constituency for so many years, and as we have seen, sort of the decline of unions. We have seen the fight for working class. And i think one of the really interesting things here too is that it also speaks to some of the suspicion of Hillary Clinton. Does she really mean it. So you had Bernie Sanders, who attracted a lot of people with his 15 minimum wage, and it took a big push and shove, almost, for Hillary Clinton to get on board for the Platform Committee to get on board with that. And so there are still those voters who they know that people like Bernie Sanders have talked about it arent convinced that Hillary Clinton is going to do it. In spite of the fact that donald trump has been all over the place. Now hes, what, for a 10 minimum wage . Were not sure. A couple different positions. And bring in the tpp issue, which, by the way, we saw a lot of signs up, no tpp yesterday. Mark, looking at the contrast between last night and what we saw in cleveland last week, what do you think of the strategies here . Yeah, jose. After trump concluded his remarks last night, it was very clear that republicans last week in cleveland made a fundamental mistake, really not channelling a nod at the hope and optimism, that you usually have, particularly for winning campaigns and candidacies. Last night, Many Republican commentators and operativeses ended up saying it was obama who grabbed the mantle of Ronald Reagan and republicans did not. They abandoned that. That Donald Trumps remarks were not the hopeful, cheery, reagan optimism or even the george w. Bush compass natt conservatism. And that gave barack obama to seize that and have a contrast with republicans. And it is typical, in my experience, covering american politics that usually the more cheerful, the party that is smiling, the candidate smiling, is one that typically wins. And interesting, mark. You know, i guess if youre tim kaine and you want to introduce yourself to the majority of the United States people, its not good to be sandwiched between joe biden and barack obama. I mean, its just like how do you get your message out there when you have, you know, pretty good speakers before and after you, but he did have some kind of memorable lines. And i want to go through some of them. Lets listen to some. My son nat deployed with his Marine Battalion just two days ago. He deployed overseas to protect and defend the very nato allies that donald trump says he now wants to abandon. How effective do you think he was . Jose, youre absolutely right that its almost Mission Impossible to be sandwiched between Vice President joe biden and president barack obama. And that was the whole Convention Organizers plan. Tim kaine was really never featured to dominate wednesday night. But where i do think he was able to be effective, at least on the tv screen, was just kind of your average joe, smiling guy. Very different than joe biden. But really kind of tapping into that suburban dad ethos. So many people on twitter last night were saying, having this suburban dad meme for him. But essentially, tim kaine, when ive seen him since 2005, when he won the Gubernatorial Election in virginia and also when he won the senate race in 2012, is that tim kaine is someone who almost kind of kills you politically with kindness and tim kaine was really starting to draw himself as that smiling candidate, a little corny, maybe a little hokey, but somebody who can be able to get in a different type of attack on donald trump. And steve, i think that one of the things that clearly the clinton camp thinks he can be helpful with is the Latino Community. I mean, you know, right after the announcement where he spoke spanish, he gives that one interview with Hillary Clinton on 60 minutes but then the next interview he gives is on Spanish Language tv and yesterday sprinkled in his speech was spanish and talking about what he learned in some of the lessons he learned. And in particular, keep in mind, last night were in philadelphia. But when they announced tim kaine as the vp, where did they hold the rally . Miami. When we look at the Electoral College scenarios, we can talk about donald trump being very competitive in the rust belt, real shot in ohio, real shot in pennsylvania. Even if donald trump has a lot of success in the rust belt, it is really hard to look at that map and see him getting to 270 if he cant get florida. And so i think thats part of the thinking for democrats here. To have tim kaine down there giving the kinds of interviews youre talking about throughout the fall, Spanish Language media in florida. So you think, Chris Jansing, well be hearing a lot more from tim kaine in he is upon o . I dont think there is any doubt about that. And, look, you cannot you cannot see a path for a republican without winning florida. And already, you have the obvious with donald trump. Which is im going to build this great big beautiful wall, im going to deport 11 million people. Were going to keep muslims out of the country. I mean, all of those things, and yet i think there is still a way for tim kaine to be used in very particular ways, and i think the Spanish Language is going to be very strong for him. Look, ive had hispanics say to me, including people who lead groups, i think its disingenuous to think that just because somebody speaks spanish, were going to support them. But there is that connection that he is able to make in certain parts of the country. Chris jansing, Steve Kornacki and mark murray, thank you for being with me this morning. Appreciate your time. And coming up, Donald Trumps campaign does damage control as a republican nominee tries to walk back his call on russian to find Hillary Clintons email. He asked russia to do that. But first, president obama takes on Donald TrumpsConvention Declaration that he alone can fix the countrys problems. Were not a fragile people. Were not a frightful people. Our power doesnt come from some selfdeclared savior promising that he alone can restore order as long as we do things his way. We dont look to be ruled. [ cheers and applause ] our power our power comes from those immortal declarations first put to paper right here in philadelphia all those years ago. We hold these truths to be selfevident. That all men are created equal. That we, the people, can form a more Perfect Union [ cheers and applause ] thats who we are. Staying in rhythm, its how i try to live, how i stay active.

I we worked with pg eof to save energy because wenie. Wanted to help the school. They would put these signs on the door to let the teacher know you didnt cut off the light. The teachers, they would call us the energy patrol. So they would be like, here they come, turn off your lights those three young ladies were teaching the whole school about energy efficiency. We actually saved 50,000. And thats just one school, two semesters, three girls. Together, were building a better california. He asked the russians to interfere in american politics. It is inconceivable to me that any president ial candidate would be that irresponsible. Donald trump calls himself the law and order candidate. Thats not law and order. Thats criminal intent. Donald trumps extraordinary call on russia to find Hillary Clintons deleted emails drew a is series of blistering attacks on the floor of the democratic convention. But this morning, hes walking that back. When im being sarcastic youre being sarcastic . Of course im being sarcastic. But you have 33,000 emails deleted and the real problem is what was said on those emails. You take a look at what was said on these emails, its disgraceful. Yesterday when our katy tur asked trump to reconsider what he was saying, heres what he told her. Reporter do you have any qualms about asking a foreign government, russia, china, anybody, to interfere, to hack into a system of anybody in this country . Its up to the president. Let the president talk to them. Does not that give you pause . No, it gives me no pause. Let me bring in congressman adam schiff, Ranking Member of the house intelligence committee. Great to see you. Great to be with you. Whats your reaction to all of this . I think its just astounding that you have a major president ial candidate, one of the nominees of the parties, calling on a foreign power to hack into his opponents campaign. I dont believe for a minute that he said that in jest or sarcastically. He fully meant it. Then doubled down on it and now is trying to back off on it. The reality is, you never know where the guy stands. And i think this is the problem when you nominate a reality tv performer to be president. Now what he is calling for is for the russians to find something that was already deleted, and that i guess the fbi wasnt able to pick up, right . Yes. And the way the federal system works, youre allowed as a federal employee to remove your own personal emails. Every federal ploe, not just the secretary of state, every employee has the ability and responsibility of separating their work and nonwork emails. What is personal email and what isnt, though. The federal employee themselves is entrusted with that responsibility. Do you think the russians did this . Well, i cant speak to any of the classified briefings weve had. But the russians certainly have the means. Theyre one of the most capable cyber actors in the world. They are a history, particularly their adversaries, and here they have such a clear motivation. Here in trump, they have a candidate who belittles nato, says he made an honor the security to the baltics. Says he may support a repeal of the sanction on russia. Who has expressed admiration for russia in the past. Absolutely he has. And its astounding. Arent the russians the same people that kind of went into the state department, went into even some of the lesser, you know, high classifications at the white house some time ago . I think all im permitted to say at this point is what the director of National Intelligence said, there is a history of russia hacking both to our official agencies, as well as im wondering, congressman, is there a possibility of the famous reset button with russia . Can you reset relations with a government that is hellbent on doing things like what possibly they did . No. I dont think you can. You certainly cant while putin is in power. Thats just not his nature. And i think bush made the mistake of thinking he could look into putins eyes and see his soul. Was it a mistake for Hillary Clinton to press that reset button on russia . It wasnt a mistake to try and i think she recognized very early on, he wasnt interested in resetting the relations and its even more apparent now. I think the only thing you can do with russia is demonstrate strength. Push back hard, let putin know there will be a cost for his foreign aggression. And this is exactly the opposite of what trump is doing. What he is doing is encouraging this kind of what kind of cost should there be for you know, invading parts of ukraine for trying to destable countries, for supporting the dictatorship in syria and so many other things. Well, in ukraine, i think we have had a more forceful response. I think we should have been providing defensive weapons to ukraine. We made a commitment to ukraine, as did russia, that if they disarmed, they got rid of their Nuclear Weapons when the soviet union broke part, we would defend their territorial integrity, ensure it. So i would like to see more robust economic support. I would like to see Stronger Economic sanctions against russia. I would like to see defensive weapons for ukraine. Promise europeans wont go for that. Its hard, although secretary clinton has a history of being able to build Strong International coalitions. What a pleasure to see you. Thank you for your time. Great to see you. Coming up, dejavu all over again. Chelsea clinton, a former first daughter we all watched come of age in the white house, returns to the stage tonight. Chelsea in an exclusive interview about tonights speech, and more. There is so much discussion about what your dad would be called if your mom becomes the next president of the United States. Have you talked about it at home . We have talked about it, partly because we have been asked about it. What does he want to be called . He likes to harken back to his irish roots so i think he would love to be called first laddie. Thats probably not going to catch on. No, i dont think so. So im definitely voting for first gentleman.

My colleague, matt lauer, spoke exclusively to chelsea about watching her mother take a place in history. Im going to try really hard to not cry. Youre allowed. I just i think my heart will burst. I mean, i this election is so important to me, because im now a mom. And as proud as i am of my mom, this election to me is fundamentally about my children, about charlotte and aiden, and i couldnt imagine a better president for them, i couldnt imagine a better grandmother, either. So i think just standing there, thinking about my children, looking at my mom, i think its going to be overwhelming. Youre going to set the table in a way for the most important speech of her life. What do you want to say about her . That people dont know chelsea, because your mom, your dad, your family, they have been in the public eye for decades. What dont we know . Well, i hope to convey even just a small sense of why i am so proud and grateful to be her daughter. Why i am grateful for the example she set for me as a mom. You know, i hope that people will just get a sense of why im so proud to be standing so its going to be a deeply personal speech. This is not going to be a speech thats going to try to separate her from donald trump . No, i mean, im going to talk as her daughter. Im an only child, so its a unique position that i have. And i just hope that people understand even a little more when im done than when i started about why i love her so much and admire her so much. You know your mom as well as anyone. And yet you hear the things that are said about her all of the time. Lack of trust. People have very negative comments. Her negative ratings are high. There has to be a disconnect in your mind between the person you know. How do you explain the disconnect . Well, it is such a disconnect, because, you know, what you were just saying kind of what we heard last week in cleveland, thats not the person that i know. Thats not the person that i grew up with, that im so proud to stand beside and to introduce here in philadelphia. Meanwhile, president obama draws a stark contrast between convention. He lays out his most forceful argument yet that Donald Trumps portrayal of the nation is unprecedented in its pessimism. We democrats have always had plenty of differences with the Republican Party. And theres nothing wrong with that. But what we heard in cleveland last week wasnt particularly republican. And it sure wasnt conservative. What we heard was a deeply pessimistic vision of a country where we turn against each other and turn away from are the rest of the world. Just the fanning of resentment and blame and anger. And hate. And that is not the america i know. I study psychobiology. Im a fine arts major. Nobody really believes that i take notes this way, but they actually make sense to me. I try to balance my studying with the typical college experience. This windows pc is a life saver being able to pull up different articles to different parts of the screen is so convenient. I used to be a mac user but this is way better. But do you really know what it means . Ound a lot these days. No. The answer is no. Because its complicated and sciencey. But with my nutrition mixes, you dont have to worry about the science. You can just put it in your pie hole. Mmm peanuts, pecans, cashews. Ill have another helping of science, please so whether its energy or heart health youre after, start optimizing your nutrition with my specially mixed nutrition. Planters. Nutrition starts with nut. Gilman go get it, marcus. Go get it. Coach gilman used his cash rewards credit card from bank of america to earn 1 cash back everywhere, every time. At places like the batting cages. [ crowd cheers ] 2 back at Grocery Stores and now at wholesale clubs. And 3 back on gas. Which helped him give his players something extra. The cash rewards credit card from bank of america. More cash back for the things you buy most. America isnt about yes, he will. Its about yes, we can and were going to carry hillary to victory this fall, because thats what the moment demands that was president obama last night, bringing back his own Campaign Slogan as a rallying cry for Hillary Clinton. Joining me now, Washington Post editorial writer, Jonathan Capehart and beth fooey. Thank you for being with me this morning. Is this the kind of candidate were going to be seeing in the clinton campaign, using surrogates like barack obama . Absolutely. The president , one, for him i think there are two motivating factors. One, to help a fellow democrat get elected. Actually, three, get a fellow democrat get elected. Get this particular democrat elected, Hillary Clinton, a former rival he has come to admire and respect, having appointed her secretary of state. And then the third motivation is protecting his legacy, meaning protecting all of the gains that he has made in the eight years of the presidency. Because his role in the campaign is to remind the base and independent voters that everything that they liked about his presidency, everything that hes been able to accomplish, could be basically overturned on january 20th, 2017. Interesting, jonathan, someone with that kind of charisma, with that kind of power, to move people, president obama. How do you transfer that into Hillary Clinton . Well, i mean, you try you send him into those places where the affection for him and admiration for him is high. So were talking communities of color. You send him into big cities, you send him into the southern states, where the africanamerican vote is huge, and the only way that Hillary Clinton is going to win is if there are if the africanamerican and latino vote are huge. If they come out in big, big numbers. Thats how she is going to win. Thats where he will be of huge benefit. Both he and the first lady and lets not forget Vice President biden and senator kaine, dr. Joe biden. She has a lot of people who can go into lots of different communities to make up the coalition thats going to push her into the white house. She hopes. But, you know, i would argue, jose, its also a problem for her in that she cannot appear to be running for president obamas third term. Why not . Because over the course of history, two it terms of the president is typically seen as enough. Its very rare that a president this president has 50plus. Thats true. And everything that jonathan said is true. That he can target those constituencies that are still very receptive to him. But this is still a changed election for a lot of people. People looking for something else. Thats why we saw the potency of the Bernie Sanders voters out there. We still do in that hall. Yesterday they were still out there, they were yelling no more war at leon panetta. They are not done with this argument. There are people out there, even in the Democratic Party, who are not 100 behind Hillary Clinton. So she needs to make a case that yes, shes going to continue the best parts of the obama legacy, but she is her own candidate, she is her own woman and shes going to get out there and make the party better. Make the country better. President obama said that in his address last night, said there are still things to be done here. Were not done, i didnt finish it. Were looking as were speaking here, theres a walkthrough of senators. Elizabeth warren. Tammy baldwin. These are the women democratic senators. Barbara mikulski. Cool. Let me ask you a little bit beth, i guess i want your thoughts on this. Our own joe on morning joe, the Washington Post oped by joe scarborough, on a day when the National Committee scheduled a long list of allstar speakers, six of the headlines were on the bizarre invitation to break into Hillary Clintons email accounts. Im just wondering, is any publicity good publicity . Thats always been trumps gamble. He did that so deliberately, ro rose. Everybodys eyes have been out of philadelphia. So he jumped in. Bam, had to grab the attention and sure did it with that suggestion that russia get involved and go after Hillary Clintons emails. He did that so deliberately, knows how to play the media better than any candidate has. Its such a stark contrast than what were seeing here. But what resonates with people in the longterm . I think what will resonate with people in the longterm is once were into the general election, its going to come down to do they like the person who has a lot of political baggage, but who is stable, who is sure and clear and is about moving forward, even inincremently or are they going to go with the person who seems erratic, irrational or some people might question whether hes crazy, loosely speaking. Given a lot of the things that we have seen in this week. I mean, i thought i was doing a panel at ndi, lots of ambassadors to the United States who live in washington. And when we came off, someone said, did you hear the news, donald trump said russia should hack the state department so that they could get the rest of clintons emails. I thought, wait. This isnt the onion . Right. I think its a cumulative effect of the sort of crazy headlines. Yeah. On the other hand, some you know, there are some that say crazy is the establishment, right . So theyll always point that out. I would argue that was what may mayor bloomberg said last night, to go with the not crazy. Thank you for being with us. Great seeing you. After three days of milestone speeches from the countrys reigning top democrats, Hillary Clinton takes the stage tonight to accept her historic nomination. So what does she need to say and how does she need to say it, carrying the torch forward . Were talking about that next, right here on msnbc. And these are the lungs. boy sorry. dad dont worry about it. vo at our house, we need things that are built to last. Thats why we got a subaru. avo love. Its what makes a subaru, a subaru. Donald trump i could stand in the middle of 5th avenue im Hillary Clinton and i approve this message. And shoot somebody and i wouldnt lose any voters, okay . And you can tell them to go f themselves you know, you could see there was blood coming out of her eyes, blood coming out of her wherever. You gotta see this guy. Ahh, i dont know what i said, ahh. I dont remember. Hes going like i dont remember this is todd hardy. A fitness buff, youth baseball coachand lung cancer patient. The day i got the diagnosis, i was just shocked. The surgeon in dallas said i needed to have the top left lobe of my lung removed. I wanted to know what my other options were. And i found that at Cancer Treatment centers of america. At ctca, our experts examine a variety of therapies, treatments and technologies to identify a plan specifically for each patient. My doctor understood that who i am was just as important as what cancer i had. We talked about options. My doctor told me about a robotic surgery that was less invasive. We have Excellent Technology that allow us to perform very specialized procedures for patients who have lung disease. At ctca, its all about what you can do. I feel fantastic now. Exploring Treatment Options is at the heart of how we fight cancer. The evolution of cancer care is here. Learn more about our Treatment Options at cancercenter. Com lung. Appointments available now. Jen stops working, but her aleve doesnt. Hey mom because aleve can last 4 hours longer than tylenol 8 hour. What will you do with your aleve hours . Dont let anyone ever tell you that this country isnt great. That somehow we need to make it great again. Hillary clinton must become the next president of the United States hand over your money, your jobs, your childrens future and the great trump hot air machine will reveal all the answers. We are the United States of america our best days are ahead of us trump he wants to run the nation like hes running his business . God help us. Whats the difference between what i told you and what they said . How do you square it . Is you cant. One is real, the other is made up. Hes trying to tell us he cares about the middle class. Give me a break thats a bunch of malarkey there has never been a man or a woman, not me, not bill, nobody, more qualified than Hillary Clinton to serve as president of the United States of america that was a sampling of some of the more memorable speeches this week, all leading up to Hillary Clinton tonight. Here with me is the Deputy Communications director for the clinton campaign. Great to be here. Thanks for being with me. Talk about tonight. President obamas speech last night yes, was incredible. He was moved. It was such a powerful speech. How do you top Something Like that . You know, all week weve heard people talk about the Hillary Clinton they know. Weve had people like president obama gave such a powerful speech last night about why hillary is his choice to be president of the United States. It was so powerful, because these are two people who began at rivals and then became allies and friends. He stood up and talked to her last night, and why she is the right choice for america at this moment. But tonight what were going to hear is hillary tell her story in her own words. Shes going to talk about her values. Shes going to talk about the fights of her life. And, you know, shes going to harken back to the book she wrote as first lady. It takes a village. And really lay out for americans her vision of this country. That weve got to reject fear. Weve got to reject scynicism. Weve got to stand together. And thats the theme of tonight, right . Yes, yes. But im wondering, for someone and president obama, you know, referenced it. For someone who has been in Public Service and in the public eye, for 40 years, right . How do you try and reintroduce someone who has been introduced and reintroduced for 40 years you know, were not thats more than a generation. You know, were not trying to reintroduce her. What were trying to do is give people an insight into really what she has been fighting for for all of those 40 years. What havent we been exposed to . You know, jose, its interesting. I travel with hillary a lot. And i talk to a lot of people on the road about her. And you know, people know the big jobs that shes held representing this country. They know she served as secretary of state, she was first lady. But a lot of people, especially young americans, dont know about her life before that. They dont know that show started out her career in Public Service as a childrens advocate. And the fights that shes taken on her entire life for american families. So we have spent this week having people who know her, who respect her, who have seen her work up close and personal, out there talking about the real difference shes made for them. I remember eight years ago, speaking with her on telemundo, in spanish. She doesnt speak spanish, but i asked her in spanish. And bringing up fact that 30 years ago, she was working with the Latino Community to register people. She was. But you know what, cristina, the people and you know the Hispanic Community is the fastestgrowing community in the United States, youngest in the United States. What happened 30 years ago, not necessarily affects or impacts their lives. Absolutely. So tonight youre going to hear her talk about the work she has done before, just so people know what she has always cared about. The fights she has taken on. Shes going to be talking tonight about whats at stake in this election. And what she would do as president to make a real difference in peoples lives. You know, latinos have so much at stake in this election. From immigration to health care to education. And shes going to be talking about what she really would do as president. So important you mentioned that latinos dont just care about one issue. Yes. But that issue is of importance, and deep importance for them. And eight years ago, president obama promised Immigration Reform. Here we are 2016, nothing like it. And as a matter of fact, the other side is talking about building a wall. So my question is, how do you get people to get behind a candidate who they think is part of the establishment that maybe has said they were going to do things and they just dont get it done . You know, i think it was really important, what president clinton said about her on tuesday night when he gave that really moving speech about who she is, and hillary known for all of these years. This is a person who is a changemaker. She takes on tough fights. She doesnt back away when you cant make exactly the progress you want. She has said it is her goal to get comprehensive Immigration Reform within the first 100 days she is president of the United States. This is someone who doesnt give up. She keeps fighting, keeps fighting. Thank you very much for being with us. Thank you. Good to see you. Thank you. Appreciate your time.

Some of the most powerful people in the country have taken their turn, pitching to the american people. Hillary clinton should be the next president. Tonight she gets her chance. Congresswoman, great to see you. Great to be here with you, jose. You have known her for a long, long time. Tell me what you expect from her speech tonight. You know, i think its really important tonight. I think blik started to try to do it the other night. Ive known hillary since late 80s when we were both working political spouses. When we both made decisions to work, it was not the norm. So it was we both really cared about children. So we worked on policy issues in our respective states. Shes also a very caring person. And whenever ive had a challenge or john has had a challenge, has been there. And i think people dont see that personal side of her. Shes got to let people shes got to take the shes defensive sometimes. Which she i can understand. Its rough living in the public eye. You but i think its important people see that side of her. And bill clinton said, a side people will see never quit. How do you open up when 40 years youve had access to people and people have known you and seen what you do. You know, its been interesting this week, because there is story after story of people who have stories like i do. I could give 25 of them when john was in intensive care and people thought he was going to die two years ago, she was the first person in intensive care, are you okay, do you need anything. I think she is becoming more comfortable. In the role of who she is and understands the importance of it. And its up to people like me to help tell the story of the woman huh that ive known for three decades. One of the most passionate speeches came from Vice President joe biden. Heres part of what he said. Lets listen. Well, we dont have the sound. But among the things that he said is Everybody Knows she is smart. Everybody knows shes tough. But i know shes passionate. How do you convince people that someone as passionate when they dont maybe sense that. Well, i think youre going to see the passionate side of Hillary Clinton during this campaign. I mean, when she talks about childrens issues, i remember she and john worked very closely on health care. And when it didnt work, neither of them gave up. She was as tenacious as any person. And thats why we have childrens Health Insurance in this country. That was her tenacity. Shes got to talk about it more, and trade. Now she has personally promised me, she will be in michigan often. Telling the story of how she will fight for against tpp, and for the american worker. And you know, i want to say this. Its going to be an issue in michigan. She is competitive. But i think that when the union worker hears her and they will believe her, and then they learn that donald trump opposed the auto bailout and he doesnt walk his talk, he talks a good game. But how many people dont realize, hes producing his shirts and his ties in china. Very quickly. The this week when mcauliffe said, well, if there are some changes on tpp, she could end up supporting it. Thats not someone who doesnt know her. Thats not someone not close im also someone who knows her and i was furious at terry. Im not going to mince words. I talked to john poe defendanto that night. And he put out a word. Ive talked to john and others since then. And she has personally promised me she will be in the state and that she i couldnt support her. As much as i love her, if i thought for one minute she would do anything to support tpp, i wouldnt be supporting her. Congresswoman, thank you very much for being with us. A pleasure to see you. Same with you. Celebrities have also come out for the dnc, delivering speeches and performances. Coming up, i chat with actress rosie perez and why she sponsored Hillary Clinton all along.

Recorded for the victims of the orlando shooting. Just one of the starstudded moments of the convention so far. I had the pleasure of sitting down with one of the stars who participated in that tribute. Actress rosie perez, who explained why she is with clinton. Youve been a hillary supporter from the getgo. Yes, i have. Why . Well, i believe in her platform. Initially, i didnt believe what every component of her platform. But i ft that she was the right person to become our next president. And i appreciated bernie. I appreciated his point of view. But im also a realist, and i knew deep down in my heart that america was not ready for someone who had such deep socialist ideals. Were not a socialist country. That said, i think it has been fantastic, how he has pushed hillary. For instance, one of the issues i didnt totally agree with her was the 12 minimum wage. I even did a video for fight for 15 and i believe bernie and supporters and surrogates pushed her to 15, and shes there now. And thats a democratic process. Thats how it should be. You know, and thats the kind of president we should want to have in office. That listens to people. And says, you know what, youre right. She didnt cave. She took her time, she listened. And she said, you know what, youre right. Lets shoot for the moon on this one. You told nbc latino that compared to how you grew up, Hillary Clinton grew up, even though she grew up middle class, it was like being a millionaire compared to how you grew up. And since the clintons left office, you know, they have made more than 100 million. Do you think she can actually understand the plight of those that dont have the money or even the access to growth in this country . I do. And the reason why i do is that early in her career, you know, her degree could have afforded her any type of lifestyle, any type of career. And what she chose to do was fight for children. What she chose to do was fight for medical rights, medical benefits for all here in this country. What she chose to do was fight for womens rights. And she went out into the streets and met people and show they were living, how the need is out there in america and shes continued to do that. So, yes, im a child from the foster care system, from the Child Welfare system, from abject poverty. But yet she has met this person. She has met children who are experiencing that today, throughout her career. And so she does understand. Yeah, she wont understand completely, you know. I mean, when i say i was poor, i mean, like, we were on the waiting list for the projects. So thats poor. You know. Projects was something you looked forward to. Yeah. Conversation with rosie perez.
