Four Rabbis To Address Democratic Convention

From Haaretz:

David Saperstein, a high-profile Reform rabbi from Washington, D.C., will address some 70,000 spectators at Denver's stadium, just before Obama is scheduled to speak.

Mark Schneier, a highly-regarded Orthodox rabbi from New York and founding director of the Jewish-Muslim Foundation for Ethnic Understanding, will also take part in the opening ceremony, alongside Amy Schwartzman, a Reform rabbi from Virginia.

"The Democrats have always been, are, and will continue to be people of faith, and the convention will demonstrate that in an unprecedented way," Convention CEO Leah Daughtry said.
