Watching Bernie be nominated was a cathartic moment for me

It was heartwarming to hear him nominated and to hear all the cheers for him. Hopefully some of the Bernie delegates in the room feel the same way.

I really, really hope my fellow Bernie supporters don't ruin that moment for Hillary supporters when she is nominated.

And he should be. I am proud of the fact that he did so much better than anyone could have predicted. I am really glad they are giving him his due. Hopefully his delegates will feel the same way and will respect the process.

The cheers drowned out anyone who booed. I hope that seeing Bernie get his due will ease some of the tension.
