LIVE BLOG: Obama, Kaine, Biden Make the Case for Hillary Clinton as President

update

The theme for the third day of the Democratic National Convention is "Working Together." Previous speakers included Vice President Joe Biden and Michael Bloomberg.

Bloomberg says, "Now, I know Hillary Clinton is not flawless; no candidate is. But she is the right choice — and the responsible choice — in this election."

The crowd gives a muted cheer.

Bloomberg says, "I understand the appeal of a businessman president. But Trump's business plan is a disaster in the making."

The crowd cheers at Bloomberg saying, "The bottom line is: Trump is a risky, reckless, and radical choice. And we can't afford to make that choice!"

"Truth be told, the richest thing about Donald Trump is his hypocrisy," Bloomberg says.

Former President Bill Clinton is shown in the crowd, laughing.

Bloomberg refers to Trump's several bankruptcies. "Trump says he wants to run the country like a business, God help us," which elicits cheers from the crowd.
