The 2016 Democratic National Convention started off with a bang during Night 1 (July 25, 2016), which featured primetime speeches by Senator Cory Booker, First Lady Michelle Obama, Senator Elizabeth Warren and Senator Bernie Sanders.

If you missed any of these speeches or want to re-watch them, then check out the videos below, along with a few of my Twitter comments during the speeches.

Cory Booker:

Cory Booker was fantastic! It was like a mix between Obama's 2004 DNC speech & Lin-Manuel's Tonys acceptance speech. #DemsInPhilly

President Obama shared his thoughts on Michelle's speech on Twitter:

Incredible speech by an incredible woman. Couldn't be more proud & our country has been blessed to have her as FLOTUS. I love you, Michelle.

Elizabeth Warren:


Bernie Sanders:

I had issues with @BernieSanders during primary. I thank him for his passionate speech urging everyone to vote for Hillary. #DemsInPhilly

To me, the two best speeches of the night were from Michelle Obama and Cory Booker! #DemsInPhilly

Night 1 of the #DemsInPhilly #DemConvention is over! Such a positive night, the exact opposite of the #RNCinCLE!

There were some fantastic speeches throughout the first day of the Democratic National Convention.

I'm looking forward to the next three days, where we'll get speeches from former President Bill Clinton on Tuesday (along with the roll call, when Hillary will officially become the nominee); President Obama, Vice President Joe Biden and Hillary's running mate Senator Tim Kaine on Wednesday; and Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton and her daughter Chelsea on Thursday.
