Neil Kinnock tried, with hilarious results.Yeah, I know, it's pretty ridiculous when you think that this is the more moderate, sensible of the two main parties.Very good speech admittedly, but one that could only ever work in an American election. Imagine someone like Tony Blair or George Osborne delivering a speech like that!

This Trump university thing is all very sob story, propaganda-esque.
He may well, but it just came across as Obama 2004.
That was a good ending line though.
I think Michelle has the bright future. I hope she goes for it.
Wonder if Michelle will roast Melania stealing her speech?
But hasn't spent 8 years as VP (not to mention losing his son). That kinda stress ages people.
Read my mind. Responded to Grinner before reading this
Bill totally wants to nail her!
Yep. While being a celebrity/villain can be less stressful when one is enjoying much of the limelight (Trump).
Yeah but #2timeWWchamps and all that jazz
Yeah, Beau's death was what made me sure he wouldn't run.
Interesting hypothetical I read the other day though - if Obama had plumped for Kaine as his running mate in 08, he could've had a very decent chance of being the nominee right now, given everything.
Michelle 
Michelle should run for President
She's killin it. Best speech so far.
Tough act for Warren to follow.
Not sure the former wife of a President would ever stand a chance at becoming President.
Not in our lifetimes at least.
"Greatest country on Earth" says Michelle Obama. Rest of you can suck it!
I think the Dominican Republic is the greatest country on earth
Van Jones is crying on CNN.
Van Jones crying.... what a drama queen.On a serious note though, that was an excellent speech from Michelle. Got real potential as a politician if she gets more into it. And looks great for 52.
"Greatest country on Earth" says Michelle Obama. The rest of you can suck it!
I don't think she, or others, really believe that. But you get so much shit over here if you don't proclaim it every now and then that it's just not worth not doing it.
Take a shot every time you hear America.
"Not the classically beautiful woman"
This man as POTUS firing off tweets hourly. I'll be embarrassed to wear the uniform with him in office. I reached my 20 in May with about 13 active so maybe I'll throw in the towel if he wins the GE.
I was moved to tears and I'm not American and do not have a daughter who is black
It's a meaningless statement anyway. Best in what way? At being powerful? At caring for citizens? At being decent people? It's a statement that can't be defined as such, but voters love to hear it nevertheless.
Warren time!
I was moved to tears and I'm not American and do not have a daughter who is black
Indeed, don't knock the black experience.
Alright, go Liz..
Have you seen Jeff Daniels in Newsroom?
Liz about to skewer Drumpf
