Emanuel Cleaver Speech At 2012 Democratic National Convention Fires Up Crowd

CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- Rep. Emanuel Cleaver (D-Mo.), chairman of the Congressional Black Caucus, went off-script and fired up the crowd at the Democratic National Convention on Wednesday, using his oratorical skills as a United Methodist pastor to urge the crowd to help reelect President Barack Obama.

In one of his most well-received moments, Cleaver passionately defended the Democratic Party and its ideals.

7. I could not be prouder of my Congressman, Emanuel Cleaver!

Dam-nation! That might have been the very best speech of the convention. Thank you so much for posting the video.

Not one word about himself, a total celebration of American freedoms, projection of our future in glowing positive terms, and an absolute call to action. Tears are streaming down my face.

Color Me Democrat!
I will March On, Brother Cleaver! I am right behind you!
