I just had to recommend the new documentary by Edward Norton called "By The People: The Election of Barack Obama". It was very well done and totally made me cry, again. (Seriously, I never used to cry, what is up with this??)
Edward Norton and his crew were given unprecedented access to the entire campaign, it shows the behind the scenes stuff we have never seen before. I especially loved the vigor and emotion from all of his young staffers around the country. Another cool moment? A glimpse into Obama's hotel room when the election was called for him and the reactions of all of his staff at that moment as well. (Including Plouffe, Axelrod, Favreau ect.)
It premiered on HBO last night, so catch it on re-runs if you didn't see it the first time around. Well worth it.
