How Fast the Election Seemed to Move in this Documentary ***
7 November 2009
Warning: Spoilers
This interesting documentary brought the story of Obama's election down to a more personal level. You really get the idea that the people associated with his successful win were all quite young with the exception of a middle-aged David Axelrod.

More of the differences between Hillary Clinton and our 44th Chief Executive should have been shown.

Interesting to see how the mock debates were held in preparation for debating Sen. McCain.

Sarah Palin was depicted in the way that she deserved to be highlighted.

The election of President Obama, while certainly a grass roots effort, was more than that. It occurred due to the failings of the Bush Administration.

However, during the next 3 years, we need more action rather than Change We Can Believe In. After all, Mr. Obama is now the incumbent. If we don't get this, Barack shall join Taft, Hoover, Ford, Carter and G.H.W. Bush as one-term presidents since 1900.

Nice to see that the race issue was played down in this documentary despite the Rev. Wright controversy.

As always, it was the economy again!!!
