Related: Editorials & Other Articles, Issue Forums, Alliance Forums, Region ForumsThe stark difference between a trump rally and a democratic rally is no better highlighted than what
happened in 2008.
1000s of people attended the obama rally in Springfield where he introduced joe biden. I and about 15 other friends went over to attend. We stood in line for hours to get a great position just 15-20 feet off the main stage. As obama and biden were talking, the noticed people in distress in the crowd that were in front of them and asked for bottle water to be handed out.
that is what separates democrats from republicans

This is what we've been missing in our leadership for the last almost 4 years that feels like 40 years.
