You're right, this was a night to celebrate history, political issues were not on the menu.

Anybody who pays $250 - $1,000 to protest is an idiot, anyway. The money still does to the campaign.

against various speakers, especially when they heckled John Lewis. It was sickening.
If those protesters think they are helping their cause, it is doing just the opposite for me. People came to an historical event to listen to three Presidents.

And this was also a historic event, three presidents on one stage - and Stephen Colbert to supply the humor!

Having been something of a chronic protester decades ago; Some of these protests are astroturfed and I suspect those who don't condemn hamas are probably of that nature.
