The heat outside this hall matched the palpable bern in the arena. It was a day that began with chaos and division but ended with Michelle Obama and Hillary Clintons main rival Bernie Sanders stemming the tide of turmoil. Calling for unity against republican opponent donald trump. Tonight on this the first night of the Democratic National convention, one first lady making the case for another like no one has before. I wake up every morning in a house that was built by slaves. And i watch my daughters, two beautiful, intelligent black young women, playing with their dogs on the white house lawn. Reporter an emotional plea. Tearing up as she described her journey. And because of Hillary Clinton, my daughters and all our sons and daughters now take for granted that a woman can be president of the United States. Reporter hillary, she says, is the leader we need for our children. In this election and every election is about who will have the power to shape our children for the next four or eight years of their lives. Reporter taking a straight shot at donald trump. When someone is cruel or acts like a bully, you dont stoop to their level. No, our motto is, when they go low, we go high. Reporter her words uniting the crowd in a standing ovation. After a fractious opening day as an email scandal at the dnc showed that operatives there worked to undermine the sanders campaign. But amid the controversy, Bernie Sanders, Hillary Clintons former rival, took the stage to a heros welcome. Thank you reporter thanking his supporters for their loyalty. Then pledging to continue the revolution. It is no secret that Hillary Clinton and i disagree on a number of issues. That is what this campaign has been about. That is what democracy is about. Reporter sanders redirecting his supporters to focus their passion instead on defeating donald trump. If you dont believe that this election is important, if you think you can sit it out, take a moment to think about the Supreme Court justices that donald trump would nominate. This election is not about and has never been about Hillary Clinton or donald trump or Bernie Sanders or any of the other candidates who sought the presidency, but the struggle of the people to create a government which represents all of us and not just the 1 . Reporter and finally, the moment the clinton camp had been waiting for. Hillary clinton must become the next president of the United States reporter sanders speech the culmination of a rousing first night at convention with music stars like demi lovato. Whats wrong with being powerful reporter paul simon. Like a bridge over troubled water reporter and a powerhouse slate of political heavy hitters like Elizabeth Warren wasting no time ripping into the gop nominee. A man who cares only for himself. Reporter shes been one of the partys most effective attack dogs against donald trump. Last week, donald trump spoke for more than an hour on the biggest stage hes ever had. But other than talking about building a stupid wall, which will never get built [ applause ] other than that wall, did you hear any actual ideas . Reporter but there were real fears that sanders supporters would disrupt the convention. The tension of the day perhaps diffused by laughter courtesy of senator al franken and comedienne Sarah Silverman. Im senator al franken and this past year, ive been hash tag im with her. Im Sarah Silverman and this past year ive been feeling the bern. Relax, i put some cream on it. Reporter silverman, a vocal sanders supporter, made a compelling case for democrats to join team hillary. Hillary is our democratic nominee, and i will proudly vote for her reporter also dishing out some tough love. To the bernie or bust people, youre being ridiculous. Reporter earlier today, probernie anger spilling onto the streets of philadelphia. We wont vote for hillary reporter at a raucous meeting with his delegates, the crowd booing when he told them to vote for Hillary Clinton. We have got to elect Hillary Clinton and tim kaine [ boos ] reporter their bitterness from the primary exacerbated after wikileaks released nearly 20,000 internal emails hacked from the dnc server. In some, highranking officials appear to mock sanders, seeming to conspire against his campaign. One message from a dnc staffer proposed using sanders faith against him writing, my Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a jew and an atheist. This was supposed to be the moment of party unity, what is going on . This is the opposite of party unity, this is exactly the start you dont want if youre Hillary Clinton. Reporter throughout the primary sanders and his supporters accused the Democratic National committee of working against them. When we talk about a rigged system, its also important to understand how the Democratic Convention works. Reporter how angry are the bernie supporters about whats in those emails . That lit a fuse on a powder keg. They were finally getting to a point where they were almost united, then this blew up. Reporter while clinton won both the primary battle in both total votes and pledged delegates, the email leak is reigniting the residual anger that many sanders supporters still feel. Debbie Wasserman Schultz reporter the day was all about damage control. Dnc chairwoman debbie Wasserman Schultz announcing shed resign after the convention. But after being heckled and booed by her own florida delegates the congresswoman giving up her slot to gavel in the convention saying she wanted it to start out on a positive note. But that wasnt enough to appease wrathful bernie supporters. I cant support her. You cant support Hillary Clinton . I cant say right now. Its going to be very hard to support her. Reporter some even repeating the antihillary slogan heard at the republican convention. Lock her up. Lock her up Reporter NationalSecurity Officials believe russian operatives hacked into the dnc server. This absolutely was not an amateur operation. Reporter and passed their emails on to wikileaks in an attempt to influence the elections. The republican nominee on the campaign trail today mocking the disarray among democrats. She just got fired. They said, debbie, youre fired. Get out, debbie. Out, boom. Reporter his attacks may soon have an impact. Polls out today show donald trump is benefiting from a convention bounce. Tied in one National Poll and leading clinton by 3 points in another. Like the republicans, day one for the democrats had moments of chaos. As the night came to a close, the message of party unity and good will seemed to be shining through. Hillary clinton will make an outstanding president , and i am proud to stand with her tonight. Thank you all very much. Up next, after decades in the withering spotlight, scandal after scandal, how do people see Hillary Clinton . Later, at the convention theres a delegate for almost every age.

Shes established an impressive resume as first lady, senator, and secretary of state. But the ride to democratic president ial nominee has been anything but smooth. And that includes tonight. Heres abcs david wright. Reporter tonight that opening gavel brought her convention to order . Bernie, bernie reporter no such luck. Hillary clintons road to the white house was always bound to be bumpy. This is not her first rodeo. And yet its not like shes ever managed to make it look easy. Well, this isnt exactly the party id planned. Reporter back in 1992, her First National convention, opened to an entirely different mood. The crowd now on the floor welcoming their nominee for president. Reporter back in the day, bill clinton was the new democrat, promising not just a change of parties after 12 years of reagan and bush, but promising to change the Democratic Party itself. Its time to change america. Reporter she and bill clinton walked to Madison Square garden from macys, triumphant. That was the night they introduced him to america as the man from hope. It was a wonderful little small town where it seemed that everybody knew everybody else. I mean, my grandfather had a grade school education. And my grandmother had graduated from high school from a tiny Little School out in arkansas. His grandmother valued education above all else. Reporter a lifetime ago, right . Both so freshfaced. The baby boom coming into its own. Now, Hillary Clinton is older and battlescarred. The ultimate insider. Or as the Trump Campaign likes to put it, she embodies the status quo. Her ambition, never a secret. Im not just starting a campaign, though, im beginning a conversation. Reporter her willingness to work hard never in doubt. Yet she has struggled to get even this far. Overshadowed by obama in 2008. What can you say to the voters who seem to like barack obama more . Well, that hurts my feelings. Youre likeable enough, hillary. Thank you. Reporter under siege from sanders this primary season. And i question her judgment. Reporter the insurgency apparently not over yet. Bernie, bernie the party is the most important thing that she has to do. This is hopeful for voters, i think. Theyre not large but theyre large enough. They dont like trump, they dont like clinton, theyre about to have a chance to see a straightup comparison between the two of them week to week. Theyre the ones she has to appeal to. Reporter her husband, like him or not, was a natural politician. Instinctively able to connect. Ive been governor of a small state for 12 years. Ill tell you how its affected me. Reporter Hillary Clinton has struggled with that. Rarely has she shown real vulnerability. When she has, its paid off. Just dont want to see us fall backwards. You know . Reporter so clinton is slogging it out, campaigning today in the swing state of north carolina. Today we met one woman who voted for bill clinton but isnt yet convinced on hillary. I was a bernie supporter. And i want to hear what hillary has to say. Reporter objectively, she is much more qualified than her husband was when he ran. Over the past 30 years, shes checked all the boxes. Globetrotting first lady. Superstar senator. Secretary of state. Logging nearly 1 million miles, visiting 112 countries. I ask you to vote for her because shes got the best record, because shes the most qualified to be commander in chief. But more important than anything else, shes identified the problems, proposed solutions, her numbers add up, and shes the singlebest changemaker ive ever met. Reporter shes been scandalprone, largely through no fault of her own. I did not have sexual relations with that woman, miss lewinski. Reporter partly because shes made matters worse for herself. Remember that trip to bosnia when she supposedly came under sniper fire . There was no greeting ceremony. And we basically were told to run to our cars. Now, that is what happened. Reporter the pictures and the other people on that trip made it clear there was no such threat. More recently, shes had to contend with benghazi. Her ties to wall street. And why she chose to use that personal email server in violation of state department rules. There is evidence that they were extremely careless in their handling of very sensitive, highly classified information. Reporter and more recently in an interview with 60 minutes she talked about the hillary standard. I often feel like theres the hillary standard and then theres the standard for everybody else. Whats the hillary standard . Well, it is unfounded, inaccurate, meanspirited attacks with no basis in truth, reality, which take on a life of their own. Reporter policy positions too have evolved over the years. All of which hadnt exactly reassured voters that she can be trusted. Crooked hillary, right . Crooked hillary. Reporter recent polls show that thats a huge achilles heel for her. Two out of three voters dont think shes honest and trustworthy, in fact Voters Trust Trump more than they trust her. One plus for clinton, a generation of young voters who have no firsthand memory of those scandals from the 90s. We met two of them today. The Rose Law Firm . Do you know about the Rose Law Firm . Ive heard about it but at this moment i dont who is vince foster . To be honest, i do not know. Monica lewinski . Does that name ring a bell . Yes, i did not have relations with that woman. Along those lines, yes. Reporter the trouble is, many of those Younger Voters were more excited about Bernie Sanders. One of the real problems with Hillary Clinton is that shes sort of a hostage of her history. People who came of age under obama and for who obama is kind of starting point rather than a political miracle, they just see the compromises. You know . They dont see the circumstances in which she had to make those compromises. Reporter convention this week in philadelphia is clintons best opportunity to turn that around. To highlight the fact that shes the first first lady to transform herself into a credible candidate for the west wing. First woman to win her partys nomination. By getting even this far, shes made history. Hillary, hillary reporter the question is, can she get this convention back on the rails . Her hopes of winning the white house may depend on it. Im david wright for nightline in charlotte, north carolina. Up next, a delegate whos in it for the long haul. And why she thinks this convention is so special. If you love crab and who doesnt then seize the day already. Crabfest is back at red lobster with so many kinds of crab and the most crab dishes of the year. So dive into whatever floats your crabloving boat. Like crab lovers dream. Crack open tender snow and king crab legs, and twirl creamy crab alfredo. Or try the new alaska bairdi crab dinner. Sweet and straight from the icy waters of alaska, youve gotta get it. To really get it. But it wont last forever, so hurry in. Built a sandcastle . Id . Ha, no, i switched to geico and got more. More . 24 7 access online, on the phone or with the geico app. That is more. Go get some mud. All that more has to be why theyre the secondlargest auto insurer. Everybody likes more. Mhm, i think so. Geico. Expect great savings and a whole lot more. So guys with ed can. Take viagra when they need it. Ask your doctor if your heart is healthy enough for sex. Do not take viagra if you take nitrates for chest pain or adempas® for pulmonary hypertension. Your Blood Pressure could drop to an unsafe level. To avoid longterm injury, seek immediate medical help for an erection lasting more than four hours. Stop taking viagra and call your doctor right away if you experience a sudden decrease or loss in vision or hearing. Ask your doctor about viagra single packs. Shes the oldest delegate here at the convention. After decades of democratic pride, she helped launch the dnc today by leading her party in the pledge of allegiance. Im here to nominate Hillary Clinton for president. Reporter at 93 years old, ruby gilliam is proudly representing the state of ohio, a delegate for the eighth time. I watched a lot of conventions and i thought, well, if im going to convention, im just going to have a hat made. Reporter shes seen 16 different president s, even served in the navy during world war ii. And if gilliam has her way, shell have a frontrow seat to history. There could actually be a female candidate for president and an actual woman in the white house. Yeah. What does that mean to you historically . What goes through your mind . I never thought i would live to see the day. Reporter also here today, 17yearold delegate trevor dwyron, eligible because hell turn 18 before election day in november. He is among the youngest at the dnc. I want to introduce you to the youngest delegate here. Since you have the distinction of being the oldest delegate. Oh, my, hello. Hi, ruby. Ive been looking forward to meeting you. Im trevor dwyron from maine, how are you . Im fine. So great to meet you. Reporter although the pair may be 76 years apart, theres no age gap when it comes to their passion for politics. And she tells us shell see us in four years. Thanks for watching abc news.
