Democrats Set Stage to Nominate Biden at Virtual Convention

Ken Bredemeier

   WASHINGTON - Top U.S. Democrats, including former President Barack
   Obama and 2016 presidential nominee Hillary Clinton, are among a host
   of party leaders planning to speak at next week's Democratic National
   Convention to boost the candidacy of former Vice President Joe Biden in
   November's presidential election.

   The convention will be a first in American political history, conducted
   entirely in virtual electronic reality from around the country. Four
   nights of speeches start Monday and culminate with Biden's presidential
   nomination acceptance speech on August 20 delivered from his home state
   of Delaware.
