First time I've watched a roll call

Not surprising, sitting here by the windswept waters of Bass Strait in Australia.

Loving the faces, the different accents of the delegates, the general joy and unity at the convention. Y'all can accuse me of having great hindsight but the moment Hillary announced, I knew she would be the next President.

This is a moment in a long life I'll always remember; watching the nomination of the first ever female President of the USA - Hillary Clinton!
