It was democracy in action.

And then she pivoted and said, "how proud" she was to vote for Hillary Clinton. She made it clear that for the Bernie movement to continue, Hillary Clinton must be elected as the next president.

She preached party unity and also after had a few words to the Bernie or Bust people after she was chanting "Unity"

"For the Bernie, can I just say, for Bernie or Bust people, "you're being ridiculous!"

The crowd went wild and Al Franken said, "Listen to that, listen to what you did. This is a comedian."
