I find a LOT of substance in his plan of action for the state of illinois. Sorry, I cannot give it to you verbatim. I have seen him debate with other canidates and he is just what our state and country need.
My comment about you not living in Illinois means that since you don't see anything spectacular about him you don't have to voting for or against him.

The page you showed me was just a platform that stated a few Democratic platform issues. Nothing of substance. Just BS from what I've seen so far.
I haven't said there's anything wrong with him. Please don't get me wrong. I'm just trying to see what makes him so special that he's the Democratic keynote speaker. He's a relatively new face to the party. I thought his speach was relatively entertaining, but so what?
I'm glad you see the substance in him though. I will tell you that most people don't. These days, folks are elected more on charisma and a great smile than they are on real issues. I think the major networks starting to show less and less of politicians will be a big help in that area actually.
