The DNC is off to a raucous start as Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders supporters clash on the first day of the convention.

Wellington Webb, the former mayor of Denver, already tried to use LeBron and Steph to ask for party unity. After Webb, Maine state representative and Sanders supporter Diane Russell quoted the greatest wizard of all time, Albus Dumbledore, when asking people to just get along for once.

You know, Dumbledore from Harry Potter once said, it takes great courage to stand up to your enemies. It takes even greater courage to stand up to your friends. Obviously, we’ve had a real family disagreement over the role of superdelegates in our party’s nominating process. Working to get a president elected is supposed to be hard work, but we can definitely do more as a party to ensure a fairer, more open process that places everyday voters at the center.

Of course, Harry Potter fans know that Dumbledore says this right before he awards Neville Longbottom ten points to Gryffindor for standing up to the triumvirate power structure of Harry, Ron and Hermione.

So I guess that makes Sanders and his supporters Neville Longbottom in this scenario?

Harry Potter fans also know that Neville turns out to be an unlikely hero and (spoiler alert) plays a crucial role in defeating Voldemort.
