On TV part1

To coincide with the one year anniversary of Obama's election HBO Aired a documentary produced by Edward Norton recorded over a two year period leading up to Nov. 4, 2008. The access granted to the filmmakers, especially in the early stages of the campaign, is extraordinary. Though Norton has claimed that he took a non-partisan archivists approach, at least the timing of this documentary surely has some political intentions. Its hard to deny the power of reliving these moments which surely will seem even more powerful in retrospect.
