“For years, Donald Trump has done everything in his power to make people afraid of us. His limited, narrow-minded view of the world has led him to feel threatened by the existence of two hard-working, highly educated, successful people who happen to be black. I want to know who's going to tell them that? Who's going to tell him that? That the job he's pursuing right now might be one of those jobs for black people. He's relying on ugly, misogynistic, racist lies as a substitute for real ideas and solutions that will actually improve people's lives.”

“America's hope is making a comeback. I'm honored to introduce someone who knows a whole lot about hope, someone who has spent his life strengthening our democracy. And let me tell you, as someone who lives with him, he wakes up every day thinking about what's best for this country. Please welcome America's 44th President and the love of my life: Barack Obama.”
