I shouldn't have been surprised, but I was surprised by the negative reception of the convention from journalists. I don't think there's enough credit given for how much more this convention is speaking to the public instead of just talking to convention goers.

@Janie Dusenberry If the people you're talking to are Bernie supporters and admirers, I'd consider pointing out that Bernie is a man of integrity -- likely one of the reasons they admire him -- and it's a little demeaning to suggest he could be taken "hostage." Depending on your relationship with each person, you should probably take a more diplomatic, less patronizing tone, but that's the general idea.
