Cory Booker is being overlooked tonight

At least on MSNBC. They talked about Franken, Obama, Warren, Sanders, but not Booker. It's too bad because he gave a really strong speech and he's one of the brightest rising stars. Hopefully he was noticed at home.

And frankly, before tonight I was kind of underwhelmed by him.

People are talking about him being the SECOND black POTUS...so he's not being overlooked at all.

He had the crowd in my house on their FEET!
