The First-Class Barack Obama Campaign If you want to see this movie played out to its full effect on a national stage, look no further than the Barack Obama campaign.

How They Run Their Campaign... In fact, I think the way Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama are running their respective campaigns is a snapshot into how they would each run the country. Obama's campaign is exciting and extremely well organized and he reaches across political, gender and ethnic lines. His campaign is a well-oiled machine.
