The Democratic Party made it official Tuesday, naming Hillary Clinton their candidate for president in 2016 – and making history by selecting the first woman to represent a major U.S. political party. Following the roll call vote, Tuesday's speakers included former President Bill Clinton as well as the Mothers of the Movement -- the mothers of Trayvon Martin, Eric Garner, Michael Brown, Sandra Bland and other young black victims of violence.
Bill Clinton is reciting Hillary Clinton's efforts in health and education for children and making it interesting by weaving in personal bits of their family life.
He tells the story of Hillary’s role in the 1997 Children’s Health Insurance Program (CHIP), which today covers roughly 8 million youngsters.
