DENVER (AP) - Democrats announced the nightly themes for their Denver convention today, stressing unity, security and change.

Kansas Governor Kathleen Sebelius, co-chair of the convention, said the theme for the August 25th opening night will be "One Nation," with a speech by Michelle Obama.

The August 26th theme is "Renewing America's Promise" with a speech by Sen. Hillary Clinton, Barack Obama's chief rival for the presidential nomination.

On August 27th, the theme is "Securing America's Future" with an acceptance speech by Obama's still-unannounced vice presidential candidate.

The theme for August 28th, the night Obama formally accepts the nomination at the Denver Broncos' football stadium, is "Change You Can Believe In."

Party officials also said elected leaders, policy experts and convention speakers will respond to voter questions during an "America's Town Hall" segment on each of the convention's first three nights.

Text and video questions can be submitted online at http://www.DemConvention.com/townhall through August 27th.

Residents of Atlanta, Columbus, Ohio, Denver, Detroit, Philadelphia, Raleigh, North Carolina, Richmond, Virginia, and Tampa, Florida, will be able to record questions or individual stories during "open call" sessions. Times and locations for the recording sessions have not been announced.
