I just realized that I've watched 19 DNCs in my lifetime.

6. I just came across my old Denver DNC 2008 cap. I helped to plan public health and emergency response for that.

I "met" a lot of people-- including the Obamas and Bidens if you count handshakes and a smile. But I actually engaged a bit with Howard Dean--both in his role as DNC Chair and his previous life as a physician--but mainly just a pleasant guy with a great sense of humor! (So you can add him to the list of those to have a beer with... )

Because of my involvement, it being held in Denver, (and Obama-Biden winning, of course) that one holds a special place in my memories, though I do remember some of the earlier ones. 1968 --more so from tv news of the violence and all the Vietnam related controversy. I think my Mom might have been watching it.
