The films below document 2008 election rhetorics, covering everything from the relationship between
church and state to the influence of race and gender on party politics. While some films address national and
international issues—immigration, gay marriage, candidates' war policies—other films investigate local issues,
including Knoxvillians' attitudes toward the election and the effects of the economy on individuals and
individual businesses.
