GREENSBORO, N.C. -- When Chip Hagan decided to apply to be a delegate for the Democratic National Convention it was before there was a decided nominee. He was concerned there would be a brokered convention.
"I’m pretty good at bringing people together, and I really thought that if we had a brokered convention that I could help to bring people together behind one candidate or another,” Hagan says.
A longtime friend of Joe Biden, he's excited that the party and some Republicans have united behind the Democrat's nominee.
He also thinks his wife, the late U.S. Senator Kay Hagan, would be pleased with the pick of Kamala Harris as Biden's running mate.
“I think she’d be very excited. John Kasich’s comments last night were right on point, that you’ve got to look at the individual, and this is a time when the individual in Joe Biden is such a superior choice over the individual in Donald trump, that it’s important for our country to look not only at party but people," Hagan explains.
Hagan is impressed with the presentation so far, even though the convention is far from the 2012 Charlotte convention that he last attended with Kay, who was a superdelegate.
