The presidential election of 2008 is unique in a history of
memorable campaigns for the highest office in the U.S. Never before
has an African American captured the nomination of a major
political party. Never before have the Republicans nominated a
woman for vice president. Never before has a woman come so close to
capturing the nomination of a major party. And with at once one of
the oldest and youngest candidates contending for the office, never
before has the campaign been stretched over such a range of voters
and issues. Add to that the multiple threats to the U.S. economy
and the longest war the country has ever waged and the electoral
context is set. This book is the first to describe and assess these
monumental developments with original analysis by an all-star cast
of contributors. No other book captures both the range and depth of
this one in its early look at the meaning of the most significant
election in years-one with unprecedented institutional,
constitutional, and policy consequences for all of us.
