And in a slap at the riotous, murderous Black Lives Matter movement, the in gov. then said, “We will always stand for those who stand on the thin blue line of law enforcement in America”. Dan Coats and Lt. Gov Eric Holcomb officially nominated Pence as the vice presidential nominee.

Pence also sad that Trump will “never turn his back on those who serve and protect us at home and overseas”.
Pence has the temperament critics say Trump lacks. “And I am convinced what begins in Cleveland will end in the White House”. “I’m a Christian, a Conservative, and a Republican, in that order”, Pence said after his long introduction by House Speaker Paul Ryan.
Mike Pence is now the vice presidential nominee for the Republican Party.
That night Pence gave the biggest speech of his political career thus far when accepting the vice presidential nomination. As governor, Pence set a goal of getting 100,000 more IN students IN high-quality schools by 2020. Pence’s team is already building out an active fundraising schedule for him, including phone time with donors – something Trump dislikes doing – and high-dollar finance events across the country. Explaining why Mr. Trump chose him, Mr. Pence said: “You know, he’s a man known for his large personality, a colourful style, and lots of charisma, and so, well, I guess he was looking for someone to balance the ticket”, Mr. Pence said.
The convention itself was more upbeat Thursday night than on the first three evenings, with delegates hoping that miscues like a non-endorsement speech from Texas Sen.
MEANWHILE, Cruz saw his relentless pursuit of the presidency squashed by Trump, while also getting pelted by the billionaire ex-reality TV star and real estate mogul’s coarse, below-the-belt insults.
That’s exactly the contrast that Republicans should want to make, as the IN governor aptly put it, “at the very moment when America is crying out for something new and different”.
So not a ideal night for Mike Pence, but still a good one. “And they’re all being bombarded”.
Late July 20, Trump made another appearance at the Republican National Convention, taking a seat to hear his son, Eric, address the crowd. That whole story means that Melania Trump knew when she was reading the speech where the original ideas had come from.
Congressman Todd Rokita and state Sen. On the way to breakfast Thursday morning, delegates received pamphlets from the Brooks campaign. I believe Susan Brooks provides the best chance to continue that great tradition. The central committee is scheduled to make a decision Tuesday.
On foreign policy, Pence, whose son is a Marine, said Obama and Clinton’s policies have America “leading from behind” and Clinton’s dishonesty on Benghazi should disqualify from holding office.
