I had such a good time four years ago at the Democratic National Convention 2012 in Charlotte, North Carolina in September 2012 (my blog posts):
- My 2012 Democratic National Convention Experience (Video – 6:08 minutes)
- My 2012 Democratic National Convention Experience – Day 1

- 8Asians At The Democratic National Convention: Exclusive Interview With Jay Chen for Congress

- 8Asians At The DNC: Asian American & Pacific Islander (AAPI) DNC Caucus
- 8Asians At The Democratic National Convention: Exclusive Interview With Chris Lu, Advisor to Obama
I decided if I could at a reasonable cost covered on my own dime, on my own vacation time, I’d attend the convention again. Well, I made it to Philadelphia again and have attended numerous events, which I’ll follow-up on more. But here’s a sample from:
Day 1 – Monday, July 25th:
California Delegates Breakfast
Where I got to see California State Treasurer John Chiang speak, among other elected Californian Asian Americans.
Which included Congressman Mike Honda and Congresswoman Judy Chu (both from California).
And at the reception, got to see:
Fresh Off the Boat’s Constance Wu speak about her interest and involvement in politics.
And that was only during the first day! More to come!
