The second day of the Democratic National Convention kicks off Tuesday, with the theme of "Leadership Matters."
In describing the theme, the DNC explains, "Tonight's focus is on the leaders and the experts, the veterans, the activists, and all those who seek to unite and not divide, and who step up—and don't back down—from a fight over what's right."
