15. I was there in Denver in 2008 when Hillary put Obama over the top in delegates

Not only could you feel the surge when she said it, the whole place actually shook with the effect of about 40,000 pair of feet thumping the ground. We were one on that day.

I don't think we'd have any trouble getting Hillary or O'Malley elected. Bernie would be an uphill (though winnable) battle--not because so many Americans realize what he means by "socialist," but, rather, because they don't.
