The Tulsi Gabbard Presidential campaign thread

2004 Democratic National Convention keynote address: Reception

“That is an amazing moment in history right there. It is surely an amazing moment. A keynoter like I have never heard. […] I have seen the first black president there.” - Chris Matthews

“This is why you go to conventions, to watch a speech like this.” - David Brooks

“A star is born.” - Mark Shields

“If he wrote that speech, then he should be president, because it’s such a great speech. If he didn’t, he should be president because he found such a great speechwriter.” - Hendrik Hertzberg

“He is a star…For Barack, the sky’s the limit.” - Michael Madigan

“It was such a moving speech that I had tears in my eyes…It was electrifying. When I looked around the room, all across the people were so emotional, tears in their eyes. They’re crying.” - Emil Jones

“I thought that was one of the most electrifying moments that I can remember at any convention.” - Hillary Clinton

“When Obama runs for the White House, he will run not as a candidate for blacks. He has the capacity to run as a candidate for everyone.” - Artur Davis

If Tulsi Gabbard had a moment like this in 2016, I must have missed it.
