If you watch the live stream of the convention, you will see the stadium is packed, even more packed than the Hitler rallies of bygone days.
I suspect the reason for the "Greek" facade of the stage is Obama is trying to recreate the columns of the Lincoln Memorial, the site of Martin Luther King, Jr's famous "March on Washington" keynote address, which he gave 45 years ago today. At least from a distance.
Close up it looks like a cheap ripoff of Tara.
Actually I think it's a cheap facade of the White House. The "windows" give the damned thing away.
