Editorial Reviews

The summer of 2008 saw the culmination of perhaps the most brutal Democratic presidential race in modern America history. Up until December of the previous year, New York Senator Hillary Clinton had been considered a virtual shoe-in for not only the Democratic presidential nomination, but for a November victory as well. In the wake of the unprecedented May 31 Rules and Bylaws Committee division of Florida and Michigan delegates between Clinton and rival Junior Senator Barack Obama, angry Clinton supporters stepped into an already ultra-hot battle with a no-holds-barred frontal assault. The most visible of these, P.U.M.A. (People United Means Action) PAC, took their battle to the streets of Washington, D.C., New York City and, ultimately, Denver for the Democratic Convention itself. This is the inside story of P.U.M.A. - its members and leaders. Starring P.U.M.A. PAC leader and founder Darragh Murphy and super-blogger Kim "Riverdaughter" Haas, and featuring dozens of other colorful characters, "The Audacity of Democracy" is at turns fascinating, infuriating, heart-breaking, and celebratory. Special 2-Disc Edition with Bonus Interviews and other material.

5.0 out of 5 stars I enjoyed the truthfulness of this film!, March 17, 2009

This review is from: The Audacity of Democracy (A Film by Brad Mays) (Special 2 Disc Set) (2009) (DVD)

What Brad Mays has accomplished here is a truthful reflection of the chaotic primaries. The caucus frauds, the rush to hold the D.N.C. accountable and the many problems that came up in the first seven weeks of PUMA. This story is important, much of it was not covered truthfully by the MSM and there was much to tell. The film does a good job of observing the dedication of average American's to the voting process during this over the top extraordinary year. I am so relieved to see an accounting warts and all of this story. This film is an important document. You will not see this accurate a portrayal anywhere else! Do not miss this!!!
