The energy was high and with this mess it would be a way to keep the energy going and not sink into despair. Have it be our rock stars, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, Adam Shiff, Josh Shapiro, Steve Beshear, Jasmine Crockett, Elizabeth Warren, Gavin Newsome, Sherrod Brown, Hillary Clinton, Barack and Michelle Obama and Bernie Sanders. Others not listed. Democratic values and when closer to primaries the individual policies. Hold press conferences non stop.
