PBS's Frontline team explore the formative experiences, decisive moments and divergent worldviews of Barack Obama and Mitt Romney.

Go behind the slogans and political spin...

Barack Obama and Mitt Romney have spent years crafting their campaign narratives. This documentary takes you behind the slogans and political spin to present definitive portraits of the two men competing to lead the US.

Frontline’s top political reporting team spent the last year probing the core character of each candidate by interviewing over 100 friends, family, authors and journalists.

The film begins with an experience the candidates shared: a bruising early political defeat. Both candidates went on to learn from their losses, applying lessons that would help them chart political courses that have led them to face off against one another today.
