President Obama gave a stirring speech for John Lewis eulogy
He was as fiery as I ever seen him. Amongst other things he made it clear we are in an existential crisis with democracy at stake.
He was blunt and said that in order to create a just society and achieve what rep Lewis fought all his life for, we should get rid of the senate filibuster. This is a big boost because some fellow democrats were hesitant about doing it fearing future backslash.
Obama's call to take bolt steps will make it happen and energize our base even further.
