American Crossroads: Obama Years II
A documentary-style, first-person political thriller covering Obama's second term: surveillance debates, foreign crises, justice movements, and the 2016 election. Your choices set the handoff into the next administration.
Opening Chapter
January 2013 felt like a sequel that no one had time to outline. The second inauguration was colder, quieter, and more complicated than the first. The crowd still filled the Mall, but the mood was less about possibility and more about endurance. The new term opened with a fiscal cliff deal, sequester threats, and a Congress that had learned how to turn gridlock into strategy. Hope was still in the air. It was just thinner now, mixed with exhaustion.
