03. Howard Dean with Heath Eiden Class of '03
-
- Society & Culture
During the summer and fall of '03, leading up to the 2004 presidential race, there was one candidate who emerged as the unlikely frontrunner: Vermont governor Howard Dean. Dean is remembered today for an unfortunate audio gaffe we now know as the "Dean Scream," but before that fateful night in Iowa, he was the One To Beat because his campaign harnessed the power of the early Internet to out-fundraise his opponents and organize all over the country. Helen speaks with Heath Eiden, a documentary director whose film Dean and Me: Lessons From An American Primary is a fascinating time-capsule into 2003 politics, the Dean campaign, and Heath's own endeavor to enmesh himself within the Dean political machine.
