You might have forgotten all about it, but the 2020 Democratic National Convention kicks off Monday. I would have been among the thousands of delegates, politicians, activists from both major parties, members of the media, and others arriving in Milwaukee this week to watch former Vice President Joe Biden accept the Democratic nomination.

The convention will be largely virtual as the coronavirus pandemic enters its sixth month.
