Editor's Note: As we dig through thousands of hours of old videotapes in preparation for our move to a new building, we've come across some real treasures in our vault. We're sharing them here on NewsOn6.com.

With the Republican National Convention in Tampa having wrapped up Thursday night, the Democrats are set to hold their convention in Charlotte, North Carolina next week.
