00:00 2016 US presidential election. New slogan, you're being ridiculous. First night of
00:05 the Democratic National Convention was last night. What a party. Now this isn't
00:10 the RNC, so you shouldn't expect big stars like Scott Baio and the guy from
00:15 Duck Dynasty. What we did get were speeches by Elizabeth Warren, Bernie
00:19 Sanders, and Michelle Obama who brought down the f*cking house. I wake up every
00:24 morning in a house that was built by slaves.
00:30 And I watch my daughters, two beautiful intelligent black young women, playing
00:41 with their dogs on the White House lawn. Now that line about the White House
00:45 being built by slaves has stirred some controversy with some disputing the
00:50 claim. But as PolitiFact verified last night, the statement was true. Slaves
00:54 were heavily involved in the construction of the White House. The final
00:57 speaker of the night was Bernie Sanders and he strongly endorsed Hillary Clinton
01:01 in an effort to get Bernie or Busters to join the campaign. In these stressful
01:05 times for our country, this election must be about bringing our people together,
01:11 not dividing us up. A party divided is a party that... when you... the thing about the
01:20 Democrats are... I feel like people... Donald Trump... the thing that people are
01:27 thinking is that... The Bernie or Bust crowd was relatively small but vocal. They
01:33 chanted "Bernie" during other speakers. It went to the point where Sarah Silverman
01:37 had to shut them down. To the Bernie or Bust people, you're being ridiculous.
01:47 That being said, plenty of Bernie supporters couldn't hide their emotions.
01:53 Oh wait, nope, that's the Beatles. Here are the people that are crying because Bernie's not in the race anymore.
02:01 Hello darkness my old friend, I've come to talk with you again
02:13 because a vision softly creeping left its seeds while I was sleeping.
02:22 And here's a now famous gif of Susan Sarandon being bored out of her mind.
02:26 Finally, Bernie took a page out of Hillary's book on Twitter. When Donald
02:30 Trump tweeted, "Bernie Sanders totally sold out to crooked Hillary Clinton. All
02:34 of that work, energy, and money and nothing to show for it. Waste of time."
02:37 Bernie responded, "Never tweet." For more trends like these, visit us online at
