In addition to naming a presidential nominee, national political conventions are designed to bring out the spirit of the parties through debate, fellowship...and lots of confetti-throwing. As the Democrats get ready to head to Denver and the Republicans gear up for Minneapolis, host Frank Stasio gets a preview of both national political conventions from four North Carolina delegates: Democrats Graig Meyer and Grace Liem and Republicans Jimmy Bention, Sr. and Jeanne Smoot.
