the biden bernie condominium going to hold, everybody going to behave?re they a unified party. >> i think it is a unified party. they don't have everything they want and they will push for more but by and large, i think the entire party has coalesced around the ticket, it will be a controversial kind of convention. this campaign has so little controversy right now that maybe that's part of the problem. paul: i remember 2012 and mitt romney and stevens thought the voters had decided to fire barack obama and they could play it relatively safe. biden seems to be pursuing a strategy, he's not taking media questions and being very careful. are they being too safe and could be a problem? >> we used to call it the rose garden strategy. i've never seen a challenger do this but it's been working so far. the vote is largely determined by trumps satisfaction or approval rating on handling the virus. the virus is the number one issue, it overwhelms everything and affects every american life at the moment. the fact that his rating went from 51 to 41 on handling the v

number of reasons because they didn't like hillary because the democratic party didn't vote in joe biden bernie sanders is the nominee for a variety of reasons she's saying essentially this time you've got to put those divisions behind you get behind the democratic nominee joe biden and vote him into office getting rid of donald trump it was. a searing indictment of donald trump and i suspect if it been played in a hall in a normal convention there would have been a lot of applause lines but that was quite a damning assessment of the last 4 years from the former 1st lady a damning assessment of the last 4 years to a friend battle some days he was a little some real stinging criticism from him how do you think that's likely to pass. well the fact that barry sanders is criticizing donald trump isn't new but the fact that he was there and he delivered the speech in support of joe biden was significant because this is him saying essentially to all his supporters you have got to get behind the democratic nominee this time and he made a very interesting point in his speech he said joe biden from day

real energy. >> the only speaker with any real energy was bernie sanders because he really believes in something unlike the rest of the, joe biden is not anything. a machine politician. that is the danger. because bernie does have the energy. jillian: the first night of the convention was supposed to be about unity as ohio governor john kasich tried to win over independents and anti-trump republicans. >> america is at the crossroads today. the stakes in this election are greater than any in modern times. i'm a lifelong republican but that attachment is second place in my responsibility in normal time something like this would probably never happen but these are not normal times. we are being taken down the wrong road by a president who has pitted one against the other. todd: marianne rafferty has more on the unusual endorsement. >> reporter: several well-known republicans declaring their support for joe biden that included court governor john kasich who ran unsuccessfully for the republican presidential nomination in 2016. in his address to the dnc urging independent voters and undecided republicans to abandon trump attempting t

biden. he will be on one end and bernie sanders on the other end. oad,to showcase that anti-trump coalition joe biden is trying to signal. host: is it the strength of the speakers that will accomplish that? especially the technological hurdles that have to be crossed this time around. guest: one of the things i will be looking out for is if they can pull this off technologically. it will be a serious hurdle. i think the fact it has been this is down so much -- going to be an event with multiple hours every day where you can cram in every elected official and labor leader, activist, ordinary citizen, whatever. now they only have two hours of primetime programming every night. you are only getting basically the top democrat and top anti-trump republican speaking. have the best speakers the joe biden campaign is offering. host: if that is the case, how does the other business of the convention get conducted especially in this atmosphere? guest: the typical business of the convention, for instance, voting on the party platform, writing the party platform

i mean, the biden/bernie condominium going to hold? everybody going to behave? they a unified party now? >> i think this is a unified party. i think that, obviously, the sanders/warren wing doesn't have everything they want, and they're going to push for more at the convention. but, by and large, i think the entire party has a really coalesced, you know, around this ticket. this is not going to be a controversial, you know, kind of convention i don't think at all. in fact, you know, this campaign has so little controversy, you know, right now that maybe that's part of the problem. paul: well, and on that score i want to ask you because i remember 2012 and mitt romney and stuart stevens, they thought that the voters had -- a majority of the voters had decided too fire barack obama ad tithat they, you know, they coud play it relatively safe. biden seems, it seems to me he's pursuing a safe strategy. he's not taking a lot of media questions, being careful. are they being too safe, and could that be a problem? >> well, we used to call this rose garden strategy when

biden? would it be you or bernie? >> well, look, i think the thing about joe biden is it's his history. he's not, you know, a left winger, he just isn't. he's a moderate guy. you have to give bernie a lot of cred credit. the fact that he said we have one goal, and that is to make sure joe biden wins, and bernie is always going to have his ability to have his input. but biden at the end -- and think of the platform of what joe did. he rejected this whole medicare for all. he believes in trying to deal with this health care issue by giving opportunity for more people. he's rejected a number of things that the people who are more liberal than him favor, and joe has just got to be tough. he's got to demonstrate to people that he's a tough guy, and i said tonight, nobody pushes joe around. i think he understands that. so, look, what they're trying to do is get their act together and move in the same direction towards victory, but then after that you hash it out, and i guarantee you this. biden will have republicans at the table. i don't think it will be me, but he will have republicans at the

the democratic party coming together, including hearing from a former rival of joe biden, mr. bernie sanders, who pledged his solidarity with joe biden. the question is is there a price for the solidarity and does it come in a price of moving the entire party further to the left? to get a sense of that, we welcome someone with vast experience on wall street as well as in washington, he is ralph schlosstein, cochairman and co-ceo of evercore. great to have you with us as always. you've described yourself as a fiscal conservative but a social liberal. side, fiscal conservative are you concerned joe biden is tacking to the left to make sure he keeps the bernie brose with him? ralph: not really. if you look at vice president biden's record in the senate and when he was vice president to squarely obama, he is in the left center of the democratic party, the center of the democratic party. .e is a procapitalist his selection of kamala harris as a vice president, who while i also believe is pro-capitalism, sets of course which i believe is a right course for the country. commitment to privat

what she'll say later tonight about joe biden. bernie sanders on deck tonight.and the republicans who will also take part. and the president tonight and what he's doing as this convention begins. >>> also tonight, all of this with mounting concerns over the u.s. postal service. president trump now denying he's trying to slow down the u.s. postal service and mail-in voting. speaker nancy pelosi calling the

sanders is saying joe biden will be the most progressive candidates, we should take him at his word on this. why? the bernieocialist manifesto a policy, including amnesty for 11 million illegal immigrants, free health care for illegal immigrants but who is paying for the health care? oh, that's right the hard working taxpayers of the united states. those who are paying the taxes in the country. listen, democrats have made it clear where they want they want to have more money and more choice. they don't want opportunity. they want to ban fracking which would eliminate jobs. and the contrast on the green new deal, 10 million new jobs gone. what does joe biden think? he can't look at a teleprompter without an issue. anything -- they are delusional and wrong for america. >> jason: thank you for joining us tonight. it will be fascinating to see what happens next week. erin, tammy have a wonderful evening. coming up the second amendment is under attack and we will show you what democrats are doing to us plunge on your rights. dan ponte and jan ellis will join us plus a very scary report about an alleged who repor

number of reasons because they didn't like hillary because the democratic party didn't vote in joe biden bernie sanders is that their nominee for a variety of reasons she's saying essentially this time you've got to put those divisions behind you get behind the democratic nominee joe biden and vote him into office getting rid of donald trump it was. a searing indictment of donald trump and i suspect if it been played in the hall in a normal convention there would have been a lot of applause lines but that was quite a damning assessment of the last 4 years from the former for sleazy. well now the u.s. air force is investigating reports a drone a sitting near president trump's plane a report says said an object similar to a small drone was seen close to air force one as it came in to land in maryland the air force says the plane landed without incident. and moving on and a un back to course is jews issue its verdict in the case of the assassination of lebanon's hariri he was prime minister until his resignation in 2004 and was killed in a suicide car bombing months later the 4 men accused are kno

she and bernie and biden are the moderates. but, of course, their manifesto along with bernie sanders just puts the lie to that. you just have to look at the policies they are bringing, not the soothing words that they are going to be saying.

bernie sanders speaks with a gl of uniting democrats around joe biden speaking over eight minutes from back home in vermont an aid says bernie sander wills talk about uniting behind biden and remove the most dangerous president in history and elect joe biden. now, bernie sanders and joe biden haven't seen each other in person since that one on one debate in march but an aid says they do speak regularly as their two teams worked closely since april on policy and efforts trying to unite the democratic party. it a bit of a different approach for sanders who had that long drawn out fight with hillary clinton back in 2016. but tonight, sanders is ex 13ped to rally progressives and democrats around joe biden's candidacy speaking to those voters who voted for other candidates during the primary and maybe even voted for president trump back in 2016. sanders is expected to argue that the future of democracy and the economy is at stake and he will learn quote the price of failure is just too great to imagine. >> appreciate it. a lot to watch for. want to bring in david axelrod. you know michelle

activist i mean we had everyone tonight from former republican governor john kasich stumping for joe biden to bernie sanders on the complete ideological opposite from case it's making you know remember bernie sanders a fierce opponent of joe biden calling him basically a republican and democrats clothing for most of the campaign giving a long list of why you need to vote for joe biden for my you know for my far further left reasons and then of course you have michelle obama who we have a clip of making her case for for joe biden i know joe he is a profoundly decent man guided by faith he was a terrific vice president he knows what it takes to rescue an economy beat back a pandemic and lead our country and he doing this since he will tell the truth and trust science he will make smart plans and manage a good team and he will govern as someone who's lived a life that the rest of us can recognize. probably the most political and most emphatic that we've seen michelle obama ever be she did touch on the they go low we go high comment from to that 16 saying that democrats still need to stay high it's the

for the joe biden. bernie sanders and elizabeth warren talk about? if he wins, that will be the tug-of-war within the governing coalition, he's already moved left. the party becomes more. republicans continue to move right. and across to move left. that's what campaigns are about. if vice president biden can stay on his message, he will be fine. the campaign's test that instantly different ways. we will see where it goes. host: barack obama said it wasn't a red america or blue america, a red white and blue america. there seemed to be echoes of his entry into national politics in 2004. >> none of this should be controversial. these should not be republican principles or democrat principles. they are american principles. at this moment, this president and those who enable him have shown they don't believe in these things. tonight, i'm asking you to believe. their ability to lead this country out of the start times and build back better. host: where their echoes of boston from six years ago? was the year i was elected to congress. i was at that conventi

biden's brain. you are saying and environmentalist as he calls himself bernie sanders standing in front of a pile of timber talking about what a socialist vessel joe biden has become. launch our expert kasich standing in field talking about how he's a moderate. aoc trying to talk about how radical the party is going to be. this is the democrat party but remember, joe biden is radical socialist. he is pursuing the green new deal with kamala pairing up with aoc. let's be clear, radical socialism is what the democrat goal is. aoc staff said it over a year ago, the green new deal is about taking away capitalism and changing our economy to a socialist economy. that's what is at stake in november and president trump stands firmly for the ground in this country that our constitution is what we should be fighting for. >> yeah, joe biden may be the nominee they are going to choose but this is the party of bernie sanders. ari fleischer did a nice job breaking down what comrades come cortez said. to translate the social justice wokeness that she rammed into one minute, this is someone who absolutely loathes am

but mr biden needs the bernie sanders supporters, not all of whom are co mfortahat's right but i think that is why this speech from bernie sanders is important and he is going to say that this is the most consequential election in modern american history because of what he is going to say, the threat posed by donald trump. very powerful for democrats to have that message in prime time. he will be followed by michelle obama. her transformation from political spouse, wife of barack obama to bestselling author and political force in her bestselling author and politicalforce in her own right will be off tonight because she is the person who is headlining the coverage. so, a very important 20 minutes coming up here in the programming at the democratic national convention, virtual as it is. and as you say, getting very close to centre centres. michelle obama delivered what of the most memorable speeches 2016 convention. she did, she famously said that when they go low, we go higher. and in prepared remarks that we know she is going to deliver tonight, she pre— taped th

biden. there was a moment in the campaign that it looks like bernie sanders might well be the nominee and suddenly everything turned in the other direction. unlike four years ago, sanders and biden have been able to reach an accommodation -- not on all the issues, as he made clear last night can they have a difference on health care, medicare for all versus a public option -- there are other issues where they disagree. -- he was all in on defeating president trump that i think that was the sum of his message. whether that will persuade some of his supporters is another question. that will be part of what the biden campaign with the help of sanders and his folks will need to be able to do over the next 70-x days. jonathan: how many political conventions have you covered, dan? dan: well, 20, 21. my first one is a kid was 1968 in chicago, but then i went a long stretch before i hit another one. i have done every one since 1980. that questionk because just to set people's minds, you know the power of these conventions, what they are, the traditions and customs -- like everyone, this is how do youfirst

biden task force. that's one. and obviously bernietrue to his word from day one, he said i am going to get behind the nominee if i am not the nominee. he moved quickly. as a result, standing for joe biden in unifying democrats is particularly good. >> could you see bernie sanders serving in a biden cabinet? >> well, that's obviously a decision for joe biden to make. i would obviously argue and i respect bernie a hell of a lot, think he brings a lot to the table, i think he represents a hell of a lot of people out there that want kind of a bold direction for the working class of america. he represents millions of people who as you know came into the process, people of color, young people, where do they reside? they reside with the agenda of bernie sanders. if it were not bernie himself, certainly progressives that represent the direction of bernie sanders. my two cents of advice, they can obviously take it or leave it, the biden transition administration should think about not just a token but building them in from the top through the

biden deserve for that? some people think maybe joe to the left to embrace bernie sanders specifically. anne: i think he did and that's where i wanted to go. this is a credit to joe biden and the unity task force where he, unlike hillary clinton, obviously a different time and different people and campaigns, but joe biden did the work of bringing in the sanders campaign, the sanders folks, and you see the result of that work tonight. these conventions really do show how somebody is going to work when they get into the white house if they make it that far. i think joe biden has made a mark here and done himself some good work. david: we've heard from bernie sanders and were about to hear from michelle obama. before that, we want to check in on the markets. sophie kamaruddin has a full report. sophie: i want to start with the laggards in the region. huaweiway suppliers -- suppliers lighting in taiwan after there was more pressure. david: i'm so sorry, we wanted a full report that shall obama is up a bit -- michelle obama is up a bit early. i love this country with all my heart and it pains

biden secured the presidentialal nomination with 3558. for more, we are joined by darrick hamilton, a a former bernie sanders supporter who took part in theiden-sanders unity task force.. he is the incoming founding director of the newly created institute for the study of race, stratification and political economy at the new school. professor hamilton, welcome to democracy now! so this was very powerful, ady barkan speaking electronically, talking about his support -- although he did not use the word "medicare for all,"," he is well known as a medicare for all activist. and joe biden has promised he would veto any medicare for all if hehat came to his desk was president. can you talk about that difference and whether you think actually it is still possible there's a chance for change on if there was a president biden? theell, i guess counterfactual was donald trump. that helped to explain why ady barkan gave an ununequivocal endorsement for biden. donald trump d does -- represena threat to the nation. he strove wrot narcissism, for loopholes. i think the strategy is elect joe biden and on november 3, come with the full force to ensure tha

i don't know if you are. >> joe biden is so far from a marxist i don't know what to tell you and bernieknows it. shannon: let me bring steve in. clarify this. we hear joe biden is not progressive, not going to pull the party left, not taking orders from bernie and aoc but the other wing of the party saying he should be and that is the future in the we i just read that the party doesn't get it, shouldn't be hiding their progressive leanings or the fact that senator sanders has pulled things and the mainstream by his assessment. what you make of where democrats are tonight? >> it was clear to me the only speaker with real energy was bernie sanders and that is because he really believes in something unlike the rest of them. when you say biden, the trouble was joe biden is he is and anything. he is a machine politician, doesn't believe in anything, hasn't got any strong convictions and that is the danger because bernie does have the energy. as he was saying yesterday and the day after biden is elected he will be fighting for control of the party because biden doesn't believe anything and ka

we know and all know is waiting to be awakened again. >> we heard from bernie sanders, basically giving his full support to joe bidenrogressives. >> i think bernie carries a lot of weight and what he did well, one, he put it out there right up front. authoritarianism, do you want that as a president? he puts it right out there like nobody else and he said, we don't agree, but guess what i'm putting my support behind him because it's that important. i think bernie sandering can do it like no one else and i think a lot of progressives that follow him will do it and he did it before in 2016 and he went out and campaigned on behalf of hillary clinton. this time, progressives are looking to him to say, these are the policies that we don't necessarily agree on them, and i will work with joe to make sure we get there once he is elected. >> govern er, your response to kasich basically saying country over party. there were three other republicans that did the same. does that sway anybody, or bring them over? >> no. list, i have great respect for governor whitman and meg whitman, nobody knows who they are and nobody cares. as

as opposed to bernie sanders and hillary clinton. joe bidennd bernie sanders actually get along and can have conversations and the evidence is that they have been working since biden claimed the nomination to bring both factions of the party together. but tonight is not about placating any split within the party and crazy as i am because i am a democrat, the fact that john kasich, a republican foreign government or of ohio is speaking is evidence that this is not about placating the left, tonight is about michelle obama. that's what we will be talking about in the morning, michelle obama with her 37 million instagram followers, with her 67% approval rating, obviously bipartisan. you don't get those numbers unless women on both sides, and that's the point. of the audience are people who listen to michelle obama. >> dana: we have a previous thought of michelle obama. and then we will get to katy perry >> he is a profoundly decent man guided by faith. he was a terrific vice president. he knows what it takes to rescue and economy, beat back a pand

number of reasons because they didn't like hillary because the democratic party didn't vote in joe biden bernie sanders is that their nominee for a variety of reasons she's saying essentially this time you've got to put those divisions behind you get behind the democratic nominee joe biden and vote him into office getting rid of donald trump it was. a searing indictment of donald trump and i suspect if it been played in the hall in a normal convention there would have been a lot of applause lines but that was quite a damning assessment of the last 4 years from the former 1st lady now to some breaking news now in at least 5 rockets have struck different parts of the afghan capital some of those landed near the main diplomatic district in kabul there's that comes as afghanistan knocks its independent stand at least 3 people have been injured. and u.n. backed course is also due to issue its verdict on tuesday in the case of the assassination of lebanon's refuse hariri he was prime minister until his resignation in 2004 and was killed in a suicide car bombing a year later the accused men are no mem

former president made the comment during a new yorker interview, saying if you look at joe biden's goals and berniee not that different from a 40,000-foot level. he went on to say that sanders and biden want everyone to have access to healthcare, a living wage and good education. he suggested that biden may have moved to the left on some key issues. so will his comments help or hurt his former vice president? social media now weighing in. charlie on twitter says that obama is just saying whatever it takes for biden to get elected. jeff, though, says so much for being a moderate candidate. now, obama certainly trying to portray biden as something that both progressives and moderates can get excited about. you know that president trump is going to take those comments and run with them, guys. jillian: you guys know how there's that unwritten, unspoken language amongst jeep drivers where they do that wave. i wonder if first graders are going to be doing that. >> to be determined on that front, definitely, gil jillian. two first grade teachers in florida turn desks into little jeeps to make going back t

host: we saw the previous guest talk about this idea of where joe biden is on policy and you have bernie sanders will be speaking tonight, i guess maybe a clash of ideas on some of those things. when it comes to the youth vote rs, what are they? moderate, progressive? what's the breakdown as you see it? guest: it is fascinating. most importantly, young people, they do not align with either political party. they do not think of themselves as a capital d democrat or capital r republican. but on the issues, every single issue, whether it is economic policy, climate change, immigration, the legalization of marijuana, they are very much more progressive than the population writ large. i think it is one of those things that democrats really notice, whether it is a joe biden type or a bernie sanders type, they recognize that there is this huge generation, 70 million eligible voters, that hold these very progressive policy stances. and so if we can mobilize them, if we can motivate them to get out to the polls, it has the potential for a seachange in american politics, where all of a sudden the
