By far the moment that resonated the most from the Democratic National Convention last night was the speech by Khizr Khan. Khizr Khan is the father of Captain Humayun Khan, a Muslim-American Soldier killed in the War in Iraq. I guarantee Khizr Khan knows more about the Constitution of the United States than most of us... including Donald Trump!

I spent four and a half years of my life looking out the window of my office at the house where Gabby Giffords grew up in Tucson. I lived and voted in Gabby's former Congressional district. Gabby was one of the truly amazing, young, energetic and up and coming members of Congress when she was shot while meeting constituents. Tonight she came out on stage at the Democratic National Convention after years of recovery from that traumatic brain injury. Gabby has had to learn to walk and talk all over again.... watching her tonight was one of the saddest and most inspiring scenes I have ever witnessed.
Tonight, instead of being a pool of sweat balled up on the floor after my Olympic lift training session, I actually wrote down the workout.

Have a Great Day!!
