know the popularity of both president barack obama and michelle obama.remember, barack obama ran on the audacity of hope, and harris' language is different and the times are different, but the symbolism for the country, for awful us, that we have a future that sees the possibility of a woman of color becoming the first woman and a woman of color to be president is not going to be lost on any of us. >> like, you know, going back to president biden last night, he received a standing ovation even before he spoke. how are those in biden world feeling about his speech last night? >> well, it was really quite a moment. i was watching on the floor as the convention hall just erupted. the depth of affection and love and respect for his service even from some of the democrats who wanted him to step down was palpable in the room last night, and you could see the emotion from president biden especially after the introduction from his daughter. those i spoke to were proud of their boss last night, and they felt he gave a forceful defense of his record. it was, of co

i was struck by a number of things and talked about what was unusual and valuable in barack obama's wordsthe perspective he offered about america. i will say that i thought michelle obama did a service to the country tonight, reclaiming the mantle of important hood away from the republican party. j.d. vance spent the last month about what it means to be a parent and what it means to have a democratic party filled with childless cat ladies here is america's real mom, michelle obama who framed it in her own mother and kamala harris'mother. one of the most dignified, a tribute to her mother, my mother, and probably your mother, too. the embodiment of the stories we tell ourselves about this country. it was relieving and exhilarating to have someone like that, someone who understands parenthood in a very, very different way. and is generous in spirit offer sort of an endorsement of the harris candidacy in the context of that generosity. it was a phenomenal moment, not just michelle obama and everyone else in this country and democratic party. >> i loved it, too. just the weave weaving stories

have a little bit of a gap to forget how good barack obama was. i agree perspective michelle obama took the stage very powerful speaker. she told some beautiful reenactments about her mom's life and kamala's life. and what they put into raising their children, losing her mom, first time back in chicago since her mom's passing. as a woman i can relate to that i just lost my mom not too long ago, too. so yes, very powerful. i didn't hear anything about the issues that we care about as americans. why are grocery prices so expensive? why is our border open? and that's when voters are going to the polls, that's what they're thinking about, not, you know, we are sorry that she lost her mom and her powerful stories. how are they going to help me and how are they going to benefit me? no visions and no solutions. did you notice -- and we are about to play some soundbites that president obama kept saying -- remember when he ran on hope and change. he couldn't say that kamala harris is going to change because she is already in office and has been for the las

it skyrocketed after barack obama left office. remember, he was called deporter in chief. here is a reason. because illegal border crossings under obama/biden at a 50-year low than when trump became president and it skyrocketed. now illegal border crossings are lower than they were when donald trump left office. so i understand that facts don't matter for so many people who support donald trump because how could they if you're still supporting donald trump? we could go down the long, long list of things he said and things he has done. i've got to say that stephanie grisham email to melania trump. >> the text, yeah. >> the text saying should we say that the protests should be peaceful and her response being no. really shows just how corrosive, how corrosive that administration was and the people around donald trump. it's inexplicable that anybody, any president, any first lady, anybody associated with the white house would not call for peaceful protests. yesterday, there you have it. at least the president and first lady, no. i will say everybody else around donald trump, in

i mean, democrats across the country have come to trust barack obama and michelle obama.the moment seem very excited about kamala harris, but i do think there has been this person just in question of whether her critics will call it a sugar high right? which implies that there is a crash at the bottom and i think the question is, can they put meat on the bone here ahead of what is going to be a critical test and moment for her later on this week we've got the ratings for last night, tens of millions of americans rushing, i assume, perhaps with the obama speaking tonight, maybe even more justice as a quick point more people watched the first night of the democratic convention than the first night. >> hey, of the republican convention. and for a man who thinks writings are more important than anything, that is really going to protect donald trump is not we're counting down to the start of the convention in the high-profile speeches tonight, including a highly personal appeal for voters to support kamala harris from her husband, doug emhoff also ahead remarks by senator and

hillary clinton, joe biden takes that transition and that plays an important role, not just for barack obama, but for the former first lady of the united states, michelle obama, who's as popular as barack obama, if not more popular. so together they help the democrats. counterprogramming with day two, you had the mention, as greg mentioned there, and the counterprogramming with where jd vance and donald trump are in terms of going to michigan and on to wisconsin. kamala harris and governor waltz are in milwaukee, wisconsin. so there's a lot happening here in day two. day three headed to day four when kamala harris will accept the nomination and move forward. >> yeah, and it sounds like former president obama is really tonight going to try to convince voters in this country that kamala harris is a change candidate in the same way that he was a change candidate before he first became elected. how tough, though, is that going to be, given that she's part of the current administration? and obviously you have republicans trying to link her and tie her to president biden. >> yeah, i mean, look, sh

rodney: barack obama and michelle obama, they can turn voters out. was what one of the problems was for president biden in his polling numbers before he was pushed out of the race. the obamas are going to bring excitement to his hometown of chicago. as a republican, i have watched that excitement since 2004 when he made his debut on the national stage, at the national convention, by nominating then the candidate john kerry. caitriona: what can they say that will sway those people who are not already obama fans that will vote for the democratic ticket anyway? stephanie: i think it is an opportunity for them to double down on what the messages, which is this is an election about the future, not the past. when it was biden running, the trump campaign had framed the campaign as weak versus strong. and in that competition, it looks like donald trump have the advantage. this is an opportunity for the harris campaign, using their surrogates to define this race about change. as you recall, obama was the change candidate. this is an opportunity for him to fra

barack obama starting his remarks by saying "i'm feeling fired ayup, i'm feeling ready t go even if iperson stupid enough to speak right after michelle obama." he then gave a long speech that was a long, detailed ode to joe biden and then going on in detail about the accomplishments of biden's own presidency before movingwn onto talk about not ju the a necessity of electing kama harris but, again, a subtle, deep, original, interesting take on the things that divide us as americans not just politically but culturally, talking about ourta atomized existences in th culture that we have right now and how the enthusiasm around thissm campaign right now can b one ofno the ways we can feel confident we can come together in a common purpose. deep, interesting speeches from both mr. and mrs. obama, and something fun and original and great and moving from doug emhoff. lawrence. >> yeah, you know, i felt -- i feel like i know doug emhoff. he's actually kind of a neighbor of mine in los angeles. i see himki at the coffee joint once in a while with his little secret service detail following him. b

there are barack obama-trump voters that exist. his precedency was, to go to war against him and against the first lady michelle obama. he still sits in a place. it is hard to believe 16 years ago but my kids grew up with him as a president that is the world they know. the level of expectation that young americans have about what they can have in a president was set by him. and so i think his speech is important. a couple quick lines, no nation, no society has ever tried to build a democracy as big and as diverse as ours before, our allegiance not by race and blood but by creed. no other country achieved it. while he understands the difficulty the vast majority of us don't want to live in a country bitter and divided we want better. he can speak to the voter that might be resistant to the idea of multi-racial democracy because they accepted it for eight years at some level and quickly to go to michelle. michelle obama was a force tonight. we were talking about this before, alex and i. one of the things that often forget as talented

barack obama essentially showing this crowd why he is still such a star inside the democratic party but, former first lady michelle obama who gave an amazing speech that got this crowd on their feet to say do something in refrain after refrain and stop shop -- shots against the former president but really a call to action for this democratic party to come behind this new ticket saying america is ready for a new chapter. >> absolutely inset hope is making a comeback drawing a line from kamala harris back to her husband's campaign and she said hope has been buried for too long in this country in time to be hopeful again leapfrogging over the biden presidency with that moment that we heard a lot of discussion from president obama about how people need to get back to being good and kind to each other and having integrity and feels like they fit those categories as well. >> we shouldn't overlook the general was very personable and engaging and showed kamala harris and a personal light that was funny and said that laugh taking some critics say vulnerability of hers turning into an asset but t

it's not going to be on barack obama and michelle obama if vice president harris is not successful in this election. but i think this appearance is important for two reasons. one, because folks have not seen the obamas. democrats are like, yes, they are here. anytime there was this video, these viral videos of president obama at the summer league games in las vegas and when he showed up, the videos we want viral. he's saying hello to the players on the sidelines and the people in the crowd are just going crazy. that electricness that he and mrs. obama bring is going to be very important to just continuing that wave of energy in the room. it's also important for a second reason. it's because since president obama has left office, he and mr. obama have focused on a lot of different projects but one of the things i know for sure that has been a driving force of some of their work is it's bringing people who feel disaffected by government back into the fold. demonstrating to them basically that government can work for the people. and president obama specifically, i've heard him say on a n

you could not say that about barack obama when he first burst onto the scene in 2008. he was up in all of those days and kept them up so you know i can understand that she wants to fasten herself to obama's rising star and i think it will work for the liberal base of the dimmer credit party but it won't work beyond that. >> you can't buy food and you can't pay your fuel bills this winter with the obama vibe as your poster. it's a totally different world today than it was in 2008. 2008 week just came off the economic crash and all of the federal intervention that went along with it that some people are still debating and that was the deal. mccain had to pause the campaign. remember the path of the campaign? obama came in and swept it all up. >> even more fundamental is the fact that donald trump is doing better in these battleground states. barack obama was a centrist compared to kamala harris. barack obama when he was pushing for obamacare rules out the public option. kamala harris of course endorsed medicare for all. kamala harris said no private insurance. let's just

so, laura, we are going to see barack obama and michelle obama. kamala harris not here.he will pop up a couple minutes in milwaukee. that is where she is choosing to be tonight. back to you. >> laura: all right. thank you, peter. there are a lot of fun memes out there. you have seen them. cam rad kamala, and the angle's original kamala chameleon. now a new one. how about kamala the kill joy. americans i eyes and ears a little bit common sense see the slick joyful branding for what it is. it is a cover for something far more sinister. i like to call it socialism with a smile. it's a seething disdain for tens of millions of americans who still support donald trump and his policies. now they tell us that the dnc was a celebration of joe biden last night in a joyful turning of the page it's all lies. first they were ready to go scorched earth against joe biden just one month ago. and, second, beyond the obama nostalgia tonight and boy is it going to be on overload, there is not much joy in this convention hall. certainly not compared to what we saw at the rnc. what really ge

people want her to be the next barack obama. e has to be careful not to be the next hillary clinton. the obamas are wildly popular, no question. this is the third consecutive convention, '08 -- excuse me, '16, '202 and '24 are where michelle obama is coming here to attack donald trump, to warn everybody about him. it worked a little bit in 2020. she's very popular. probably the most popular speaker if you look at the downloads. 2016 it was a mispyre because they never saw what was happening in the country. and i think that the obamas still can't quite shake off donald trump because he's the nominee again. so are you going to put him away by attacking him, or are you going to follow up on the campaign trail and help kamala win? i think this is a delicate balance for this reason, and you mentioned doug emhoff. him and barack obama, sure, you're there to support kamala harris, but if you're her husband, great tonight. if you're obama, how to do you help her win without going too far to fill in those policy holes and gaps that everyb

back then in boston, a young kamala harris was in that convention hall as well watching a young barack obama that's where there are two decades friendship the relationship began. >> yeah, there's certainly a lot of excitement in this arena tonight to hear from both of the obamas, jeff, thanks for murder much. we'll check in with you shortly here with the team. >> david axelrod. >> it's moving along much more on tonight, which is certainly good news for the producers here. >> and i think for a lot of people in the hall. yeah. well, i think everybody was so concerned about the pace of last night's and i don't think they want to leave the obamas waiting. >> there until 11, 30 at night. >> there was a lot of behind the scenes concerned throughout the date today about what happened last night. >> yeah. >> but i think adjustments were made and here yesterday, as we talked about, there was a lot of business that they needed to take care of and there was a lot of challenge that was related to melding the biden convention in harris convention this is a pure harris programming here. and i think they'r

and you have another example of michelle and barack obama, great partnership. rowd in this room, it was a beautiful with speech. and, again, like the oratory skills are incredible. there's one thing that a obama said though, the president. he said we don't need four more years of bumbling and chaos. now, he was talking about president trump, but i imagine that president trump was somewhere saying that's exactly what i've been saying march a march yeah. >> he's talking about the last four years. and if you look at what people are saying about what they feel, the state of their finances, the direction of the country, the debt that they feel, the inflation, they want a change from that. martha: harold, a lot of talk about how americans are struggling and that, you know, there needs to be hope for them to be able a -- for their kids to be safe, for them not to have to struggle to make payments. all of this. you know, which is an issue that we heard a lot about the last convention as well. it's a question about whether or not smaller government or bigger government i

that was true of barack obama, also true of michelle obama. reclaim the winning vibes of 2008 and 2012, and kind of draw a direct line between those victories and kamala harris�*s campaign at the moment. you know, it was a mix of both praising harris as well as getting somejabs in against donald trump. but i think that that combination certainly resonated well with the crowd. were you surprised at how personal some of those jibes at mr trump were? not necessarily. i mean, certainly donald trump's jibes at democrats have been much more pointed. but you do expect maybe in a setting like this for there to be just a bit more positivity and kind of a focus on the future. but at the same time, i think democrats really want to make this election a referendum on donald trump more than anything. they realise that donald trump has a ceiling on his support, even though he can galvanise a certain fraction of republicans, that there's still a lot of moderate voters who are turned off by sort of his morals, what he did as president the first time. so it's p

are tonight, you see this handoff that john kerry gave to barack obama and barack obama to joe bideno kamala harris. you >> you never know. >> the enormity of these decisions of who you are choosing as vice president and we have just seen it become so enormous in the biggest possible way in the choice barack obama made in the choice joe biden made. >> we sought in the way that joe biden credited vice president harris with some accomplishments of their time governing, talking about her role in the hostage negotiations and it is important stuff that they have shared in governing. >> he said in a tongue and cheek way that some of the presidents started as a vice president and it speaks about their legacy. member that joe biden was a president coming out of the financial crisis and knows he had to take action to solve big problems and he did that when he became president coming out of covid and he has passing the torch but to all the speakers we saw and aoc and here is the next generation of democratic leadership and it was invigorating. >> watching that, there is a lot he accomplished a

barack obama. momentos antes, otra figura igual de popular lo presentó su esposa, michelle obama. sí a kamala harris al son de fiesta para la primera mujer afroamericana de ascendencia asiática y caribeña que será presidenta de los estados unidos, kamala harris. viva kamala! también este martes hubo discursos del senador bernie sanders, chuck schumer y doug emhoff. el esposo de kamala harris, quien dijo que ella estaba lista para liderar, que traería alegría y firmeza a la presidencia y que sería una presidenta de la que todos estarían orgullosos. según el partido demócrata, unas 57 millones de personas sintonizaron para ver el primer día de la convención por televisión y en plataformas digitales. mañana miércoles le toca a tim walls, el compañero de fórmula de kamala harris y el gobernador de minnesota dar su discurso ante los delegados en chicago. randy serrano, telemundo. randy, muchas gracias y hablemos de lo que va a ocurrir dentro de pocas horas, ya que entraremos al tercer día de la convención nacional demócrata. en esta jornada, el nominado a la vicepresidencia y el ex pre

people want her to be the next barack obama? she has to be careful not to be the next hillary clinton, the obama's are wildly popular it's no question, is our third consecutive it convention. she's in it 16, 20 and 24 when michelle obama's coming here to attack donald trump, to warn everybody about him. it worked a little bit in 2020, very popular speaker. 2016 it was a misfire because you never saw what was happening in the country. and i think the obama's still can quite shake off donald trump because he's a nominee again. they will put him away by attacking or fire off on the campaign trail and help cole win big and think it is a delicate balance, surely there is support for lawmac would've her husband, if you're obama, how do you help her win without going too far to fill those policy holes and gaps everybody's wondering about? you can't man's plain her too much even if you're barack obama, has to be a delicate balance. >> to this a lot of feeling scared, a lot of tone categories as facts. policies pacific is, not a lot of th

obamas were in the building and there was effort to make sure kamala harris was not seen with barack obama michele obama because joe biden is still not happy with the obamas and how barack obama may have had behind the scenes dealing with getting him to drop out of the race. the quote is, we are in a tricky territory. what do yothk about that? >> we keep hearinghe word unprecedented in this race, everything on the democratic side continual ly changes. kamala harris not being there is f fi fiure hipart daunting for somnehaare to windle and need to wi arab american vote. this is not a ssofy: they alor debby dingell is a democrat, she made interesting comments about gaps in democratic coalition and brought up two groups, talked about seniors and the union vote. listen to this. >> we still have a union hall problem to be perfectly frank and how close the election is going to be and then the mideast continues to play out. new area that i'm paying attention to is seniors, i heard sen seniors, 89th birthday of social security, do we not matter, do they think we're irrelevant? we have work to do.

changed the whole rules of the party so barack obama, he walked so barack obama could fly.olor. and has had this wild character arc from being the party of the klan and racists to being this. we're not going back. the embrace of all of these communities, what does that mean to you, and do you think that is a message that can take this party over the finish line? >> you know, today, i'll try not to get emotional. today is a special day for a bunch of different reasons. my mom would have been 65 today. in 2016, it was the honor of my life, i got to introduce secretary clinton at a rally, and my mom got to meet her after. it was the goal of her life to see a woman become president. on the start of this convention to be on her 65th birthday, lord, i wish she was here, to see how far we have come. to see a party that recognizes every single one of us, not only deserves a place but that america is better when we're all included. you see this joy because we're all included. we're not saying, hey, there's not a spot for you because of what you look like, there's not a spot for you

chuck, barack obama knows how to time a line and it also felt a little bit like both he and michelle a had been waiting to get some of this stuff out. >> well you know, it is interesting. i would argue that obama is the only one that is affectively taken on trump and been effective about it. and in 2011 he did it at the white house correspondents dinner. >> but then he ran -- >> no doubt. but one of the most affective ends in just about all of those closing spots in 2012 with mitt romney was getting off the plane with the trump plane in the background and i remember talking to david plouffe about that and he said during focus groups, voters saw that right away and they wanted to tie romney to trump and the obama theory on trump has been to mock him. in some form or another. and, you know, the dramatic tone change offer the last few months, joe biden is a scary individual that you should be afraid of. all of a sudden now it is kamala harris, this is a small aging man, you know. and this is what essentially team obama is saying go after him this way. it is always been the way the obamas

former president barack obama and former first lady michelle obama, 2 of the party's most popular in celebrated figures will close out the night. >> and tonight will be a sort of full circle moment for both obama and vice president harris were told that barack obama actually highlight there 2 decade long friendship during his speech. some people may not know that. here is actually that door knocking for barack obama back in 2004 when he was running just for u.s. senate. we're now in chicago, raquel martin, back to you guys. just a quick question for you there. last night, they didn't get to president biden until late in the evening house. the schedule looking are they pretty much on time tonight? >> well, that's right. things ran extremely late yesterday. we're told that they started early and trying to keep a tight ship to keep this program moving along right now, like i said, the midst of the ceremonial process, we'll see if things pick back up with speakers after this. but of course, that it could be a challenge to stay on time. we know the headline speaker, for instance, obama is

i think folks remember she is as good or better than barack obama as a speaker. ryone in the room. i felt sorry for president obama that he had to follow her, honestly, because that is a hard job. >> everyone has said that, that she is everything he is and more. what he had on his face, it was like, thank you, honey, now everybody knows. now everybody knows. it was an exquisite series of just political events. joy reid, i'm so glad i got to talk to you today. i can't wait to see your entire conversation with those incredible women. thank you for making time for us. another break for us. we'll be right back. us another break for us we'll be right back. ok y'all we got ten orders coming in.. big orders! starting a business is never easy, but starting it eight months pregnant.. that's a different story. i couldn't slow down. we were starting a business from the ground up. people were showing up left and right. and so did our business needs. the chase ink card made it easy. when you go for something big like this, your kids see that. and they believe they can do the s
