An Election to Remember: Obama, Clinton and the Never Ending Primary of 2008 is a look at the historic race between Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton from the perspective of a political blogger. Full of analysis, statistics and facts, An Election to Remember balances facts with partisan opinions. This e-book captures the intensity of the 2008 Democratic primary as it happened.
It is almost an intrinsic part of American life to go to the polls on the first Tuesday after the first Monday of November. Election Day is a time when all of the rhetoric, tracking polls, campaign events, television commercials and speeches are set aside. It is a time when Americans decide the future of their country and ultimately steer the course of history.
Elections are the driving force of a democracy. They give us confidence in our government, establish legitimacy for our leaders and provide a voice to every citizen that chooses to engage in their right. In a world full of oppression and corruption, our democratic process is something that we take for granted. Until the recent presidential election cycles of 2004 and 2008, participation was at historic lows.
That began to change dramatically, particularly with young voters, as two heavyweights in the Democratic Party scrapped with one another over the first half of 2008. The election of 2008 is one that had unexpected twists and turns seemingly every week. The outcome, though, was fairly clear early on. Only a few short days in early September did it seem possible that the Republicans could win. The rest of the campaign was a seemingly destined Democratic tidal wave on Washington.
