    "For people who have not watched the primaries, this is the man who... won the primary."

    Thanks for the in-depth coverage, CNN.

    Finally.

    That article I read was worth it.

    Filled with the air of high schoolers who hate him.

    Isn't the customary close for this kind of thing "and God bless the United States of America?"

    it wasn't just him, seems like all the speeches ended with 'God bless you' instead. struck me as weird since i figured 'God bless the USA' would be like a reflex for at least most of the speakers if not all of them.
