During Tuesday's roll call at the Democratic National Convention in Philadelphia, British Green Party politician Larry Sanders spoke on behalf of Democrats Abroad.

Sanders took the opportunity to speak about his parents and how proud they would be of their son, his brother, Bernie Sanders.

"They loved the New Deal of Franklin Roosevelt, and would be especially proud that Bernard is renewing that vision," he said. "It is with enormous pride that I cast my vote for Bernie Sanders."
