booker will deliver the platform for the democrats with his speech. he's one of the high profile speakers for next week. former president, jimmy carter, michelle obama gets her chance on the same day as carter. wednesday belongs to bill clinton. vice president biden goes on thursday right before president obama. one thing people will watch for is the post convention bump in the polls. look at the numbers. the bump has been nearly nonexistence. john mccain in 2008, john kerry in 2004 got nothing. the change coincides with the rise of cable news and the internet as news sources and the scheduling of the events. there used to be a month between the conventions, now just four days. >>> the conventions are a big show. are voters tuning in or tuning out? next hour, i'll talk to a couple young political leaders to take on the message and the messengers as well. >>> calling on a quarterback who happens to be a girl. how her history making play turned out. this country was built by working people. the economy needs manufacturing. machines, tools, people making
