Al Sharpton gave probably the best speech I've ever heard just a few minutes ago. There were times when I had to remind myself that he wasn't the nominee because he was so persuasive. The best line of his speech, and probably the soundbyte of the convention, is from Sharpton's speech. He said in regards the failed promise of 40 acres and a mule for each freed slave back in the 1860's: "We never got the mule so we decided to ride this donkey as far as it could take us." The donkey being the symbol of the Democratic Party. Hopefully, there will be a transcript of his speech available on the internet. I will keep a watch for it and if I can find it, I'll link to it.
