'Let's get to work': Read the full text of Barack Obama's speech to the Democratic National Convention

Kamala Harris : "I'm feeling hopeful because this convention has always been pretty good to kids with funny names who believe in a country where anything is possible" Hillary Clinton : "We have the chance to elect someone who’s spent her whole life trying to give people the same chances America gave her".

Kamala Harris has spent her life fighting on behalf of people who need a voice and a champion.

As a prosecutor, Kamala stood up for children who had been victims of sexual abuse.

As Attorney General of the most populous state in the country, she fought big banks and for-profit colleges, securing billions of dollars for the people they had scammed.

She’s running for president with real plans to lower costs even more, protect Medicare and Social Security .

Julian Zelizer : Kamala Harris and Tim Walz understand that when everybody gets a fair shot, we’re all better off.

He says Harris-Walz can help us move past some of the tired old debates that keep stifling progress.

We need a president who actually cares about the millions of people all across this country who wake up every day to do the essential, often thankless work to care for our sick and clean our streets and deliver our packages.
