getting independents and democrats who are willing to cross over in swing states. >> jim schultz, live for us in cleveland. thank you so much as always for your insight. >> reporter: thanks for having me. of course, another reminder, we are sending a team to the rnc to bring you all the convention buzz. look for our one-hour special reports at 7:00 in the evening, during the week of the conventi convention. being billed as building trust that would require a special state prosecutor to investigate anytime someone is  killed by a law enforcement officer. the bill would also require any evidence to be presented in a court outside the county where that shooting happened. sterling's funeral in baton rouge today, speakers called for peaceful protests and justice. sterling's service was held at
