A year before the election, Newsweek assigns reporters to get inside the campaigns of the Republican and Democratic candidates. Newsweek promises not to publish any information until after the votes are cast, and in exchange, the reporters receive remarkable access. They travel with the candidates, are there at crucial turning points and confidential meetings, and uncover stories not covered in day-to-day reporting. In this book, a compelling narrative by Evan Thomas, Newsweek shares the inside stories from one of the most exciting elections in recent history, illuminating the personalities and events that influenced the outcome, and taking stock of the key players and key issues for the new administration. This will be an absorbing read for anyone interested in American politics. 650 0 $a Presidents $z United States $x Election $y 2008. 650 0 $a Political campaigns $z United States. 600 10 $a Obama, Barack. 600 17 $a Obama, Barack. $2 swd 650 07 $a Wahlkampf. $2 swd 650 07 $a PraÌsidentenwahl. $2 swd 730 0 $a Newsweek. 941 $a 14 952 $l UBPC631 $d 20231228011650.0 952 $l PQAX094 $d 20231214022043.0 952 $l CEAX572 $d 20200508014718.0 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20180124061546.0 952 $l GDPF771 $d 20170418070441.0 952 $l USUX851 $d 20160824082813.0 952 $l BYPB851 $d 20150214023823.0 952 $l JLPF081 $d 20150213092827.0 952 $l HWAX074 $d 20140415021408.0 952 $l UQAX771 $d 20090806113132.0 952 $l S1PD771 $d 20090708133753.0 952 $l PNAX964 $d 20090708133753.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20090806113132.0 952 $l O3AX572 $d 20100201083435.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=C6EC10B66BFD11DEA13FF332A8D7520A 994 $a 02 $b UIIInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
