Frontline Investigative Reports Presents "The Choice"

Frontline has been running a program online and on-air documenting the paths of the two Presidential candidates, Senator John McCain, and Senator Barack Obama. The Choice is one of more than 45 full-lenth Frontline reports available, with no commercials, at pbs.org/frontline.

The Choice takes a long look into the lives of the candidates and offers interviews with former personalities such as Senate Majority Leader Tom Daschle, David Axelrod, and journalist Matt Bai.

Heres a snippet for your consideration: The Choice 2008 draws on in-depth interviews with the advisers, friends and those closest to these unlikely candidates, as well as with seasoned observers of American politics, who together tell the definitive story of these men and their ascent to their party's nominations.

When FRONTLINE first aired a profile of presidential candidates during the 1988 election, The Choice redefined political journalism on television. Now, in an unprecedented election year, veteran FRONTLINE producer Michael Kirk (Bush's War, Cheney's Law) goes behind the headlines to tell a deeper political story about the candidates, the decisions they made, and why their nominations may indicate a historic change in American politics.
