A jewish suburb. Reporter we were talking about Sarah Silverman during the commercial break also. What did you make of that moment . She had that bernie or bust comment.

Right now in charlotte, North Carolina, a day of action by protesters who are calling for the release of police video in the Fatal Police Shooting of keith scott. The widow of keith scott has released cell phone video she recorded of the encounter between her husband and police. Nbcs Tammy Leitner is in charlotte. What kind of response is the release of that cell phone video getting there . Reporter you know, francis, i think most of the people we spoke to, they have seen that video, but it raises more questions than answers for people. And therefore, people are still demanding to see the release of the police video. Were talking about the body cam and the dash cam. Now about 600 to 700 protesters showed up last night for the fourth night. We were there marching with them the entire time. It was peaceful, there was no violence. They marched from the city center to the police depart
Hes selling the American People short. Were not a fragile people. Were not a frightful people. Our power doesnt come from some selfdeclared savior promising that he alone can restore order as long as we do things his way. We dont look to be ruled. Our power our power comes from those immortal declarations first put to paper right here in philadelphia all those years ago, we hold these truths to be selfevident, that all men are created equal, that we, the people, can form a more perfect union. Thats who we are. Thats our birth right. The capacity to shape our own destiny. Weve got all the highlights coming up. Plus the host of saturday night lives weekend update. Lets bring back chris hayes, joy reid, Michael Steele. Lets talk about a guy who gets overlooked too damn many times, joe biden. Yeah.

United states. Lets not forget the history as we talk about the news and the scuttlebutt, if you will. And the rumors. Anyway, that woman is Hillary Clinton. Her husband former president bill clinton gave the nights big speech, delivering a Strong Defense of her history of public service. He threw that in on top of their romance which i think he talked about with great embroidering. Anyway, hillary came off tonight as the former president put it as the real game changer. The real change maker, challenging certainly donald trump to that fight. Here he is. If you believe in making change from the bottom up, if you believe the measure of bet hard and some people think its boring. Speeches like this are fun. Actually, doing the work is hard. Some people say well, we need a change. Shes been around a long time. She sure has, and shes sure been worth every single year shes put into making peoples lives better. And as i said earlier in the night, the democrats made it official, Hillary Clinto
It was a historic day where today Hillary Clinton, this is the news, became the first woman to be nominated. Has a plausible route from here to the white house. Everything else is just scuttle butt as they said in the navy which i was never in. That history was not lost on the person who knows her best, former president bill clinton who tonight made a case as to why his wave wife is the best and only choice for this countrys future. Heres what he said in his very emotional closing appeal tonight. I hope you will do it. I hope youll elect her. Those of us who have more yesterdays than tomorrows tend to care more about our children and grandchildren. The reason you should elect her is that in the greatest country on earth, we have always been about tomorrow. Your children and grandchildren will bless you forever if you do. God bless you. Thank you. I can tell you out there working that hall, i saw so many people gleaming at every word that president said. This hour ill tell you what i th
