Crashing the Party: The Behind-the-Curtains Story of Bill Clinton’s 1992 Presidential Election.
After three crushing defeats in the presidential campaigns of the 1980s, then-Governor Bill Clinton and a band of rebels in the Democratic Leadership Council challenged the sacred cows of the Democratic Party. Crashing the Party, directed by David Sigal, features exclusive interviews with President Clinton, Al From, Rev. Jesse Jackson, Haley Barbour, Dick Gephardt, Tom Brokaw, Paul Begala, and many others. The film is the riveting inside story of the exceptional people and transformative ideas that revived the Democratic Party and originated the Clinton legend.
Based on political strategist Al From’s 2013 book, The New Democrats and the Return to Power. Mr. From is a former member of the Board of Visitors at the U.S. Naval Academy and lives in Annapolis.
Q & A following the firm with Al From, Founder/CEO, Democratic Leadership Council and author of the 2013 book The New Democrats and the Return to Power, Crashing The Party.
