As Barack Obama grilled burgers and hot dogs in Butte, Mont. this Fourth of July, Davis Guggenheim, the director of An Inconvenient Truth and his film crew were tailing the presidential candidate, filming for a project about Obama and Democrats in the West.
Jeff Zeleny has the tidbit on The New York Times The Caucus blog, reporting that the filming happened all day, at the picnic in front of the World Mining Museum and during Obama’s trip to the “richest hill on earth.”
The film will be shown in August at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.

your comments remind me of a scared little kid i once knew in grade school. he threw rocks at other kids on the playground and then ran away giggling to himself.
that immature little rock thrower just did it to get attention.
but then, he was only about 8 years old and probably outgrew it.
