Hutson is stymied by the crowd, which is chanting something that he can't understand.
He soldiers on, telling a story about when he invited all the presidential candidates to speak at the New Hampshire School of Law and Hillary Clinton was the most knowledgeable.
Hutson, who taught law school for 11 years, said: You know, you can tell a lot about a person by whom they admire. Eleanor Roosevelt, Nelson Mandela, Dorothy Rodham – these are Hillary Clinton's heroes. Donald Trump admires Donald Trump and Saddam Hussein and Kim Jong-un. And of Vladimir Putin, he said, and I quote, "in terms of leadership he's getting an 'A.'"
I taught national security law. Praising dictators is an automatic "F" in my class.
The comment brings cheers from the delegates.
Kristen Kavanaugh, a graduate of the United States Naval Academy and a former Marine Corps Captain who deployed to Iraq, tells a story of how as a young Marine Corps lieutenant "I trusted that my commanders had the right strategy. I trusted that we were abiding by the rules of engagement -- even when our enemy chose not to. That trust starts at the top of the chain of command."
Kavanaugh says that by Donald Trump saying he would force the military to kill family members of terrorists "he is defying the values we risk our lives to defend."
"This election isn't just about Donald Trump's judgment, it's about our own," she says.
