The War Room

This is a relatively interesting documentary which details the campaign for Bill Clinton's election in 1992. It is a little dated now, but it is still a good look at what happens behind the scenes on the campaign trail. I love The West Wing so it is easy to see how the writers of that show probably used documentaries like this for their inspiration. The whole US electoral system, and particularly the party endorsement process of a presidential candidate, is pretty hard to get used to for a non-American like myself but it is fascinating anyway.
