The People’s President

It’s been almost a year since Barack Obama was elected president. Last night HBO Films aired the documentary By the People: the Election of Barak Obama across the U.S. The documentary, from Edward Norton’s production company has been following Obama since his 2004 DNC speech, and has received an unprecedented response in celebration of Obama’s first year in office.

MercuryMedia title Barack Obama: The Peoples President is a treasured keepsake of this historic campaign. The Documentary goes inside the official and unofficial 2008 campaign to show how Obama was turned into a political brand, opening up to social media outlets and digital domains to engage with communities.
