Minnesota Governor Tim Walz accepted the Democratic party's nomination for vice president, stating it was the "honor of my life" to be selected as Kamala Harris's running mate. Walz shared stories about his upbringing in Nebraska, his service in the National Guard, and his experience as a teacher and football coach. He emphasized his commitment to the country and his party, saying "We love this country." Walz's speech was notable for being a big moment for him, as he acknowledged he hadn't given many big speeches before. He also criticized President Donald Trump, accusing him of benefiting the "richest and most extreme amongst us." The Democratic National Convention, where Walz accepted the nomination, featured other notable speakers, including former President Bill Clinton and Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg.

1. His classroom was a lot louder than mine but I could hear how engaged his students were.

1. In 2024, we have a clear choice: 'We The People' versus 'Me, Myself, and I,'

1. But not everyone has that same sense of responsibility. Some folks just don't understand what it takes to be a good neighbor. Take Donald Trump and JD Vance.
2. Their Project 2025 will make things much, much harder for people who are just trying to live their lives. They spent a lot of time pretending they know nothing about this. But look, I coached high school football long enough to know and trust me on this. When somebody takes the time to draw up a playbook, they're going to use it.
3. They saw in me what I had hoped to instill in them: a commitment to the common good, an understanding that we're all in this together, and the belief that a single person can make a real difference for their neighbors.
4. That's how we'll build a country where workers come first, healthcare and housing are human rights, and the government stays the hell out of your bedroom.
5. We respect our neighbours and the personal choices that they make.
6. I learned how to work across the aisle on issues like growing the rural economies and taking care of veterans.
7. It's the honour of my life to accept your nomination for vice president of the United States.
8. I haven't given a lot of speeches like this but I've given a lot of pep talks.
9. I grew up in Butte, Nebraska, a town of 400 people. I had 24 kids in my high school class, and none of them went to Yale.

1. Project 2025 has nothing to do with this campaign.

1. Are y'all ready to reach a higher ground? Because you know we need Kamala Harris.
