The 2008 Democratic National Convention will be held in Denver, Colorado this August and is fast approaching despite the party's lack of a presidential nominee, yet.
The 2004 Democratic National Convention was hosted by the city of Boston, Massachusetts. Police presence and protests were significant during the July 26-29 event where keynote speakers included John Edwards, current Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama and then Democratic presidential nominee John Kerry.
In 2004, a free speech zone was established at the Boston site for political activists, but others sought more public areas to exercise their freedom of speech. The photograph below captures protesters demonstrating in Boston's Faneuil Hall.
