The Elections of 2008

by Michael Nelson

Book Overview

President Obama comes into office on a wave of history--the first African-American President, recipient of more votes than any other candidate in American history, and among the youngest to hold the office. His election is the extraordinary final act of a dramatic election season, which saw Democrats further strengthen their majorities in Congress and the conventional wisdom turned on its ear more than once.
