DESCRIPTION:
(from CNN's press release, January 2020) It's a night full of power, prestige and politics as CNN Original Series debuts the second season of Race for the White House at 9 p.m. (ET/PT) and the series premiere of The Windsors: Inside the Royal Dynasty at 10 p.m. (ET/PT) on Sunday, February 16. Race for the White House is a six-part CNN Original Series narrated by Academy Award winner Mahershala Ali. Using rare archival footage, interviews, and stylized dramatizations, each episode of the docuseries tells the story of one iconic campaign for the Presidency of the United States. From powerful speeches to dirty tricks and Machiavellian schemes, Race for the White House captures the tension and drama of high-stakes presidential elections and reflects on their impact. The six elections covered are: 1912 Wilson vs. Roosevelt vs. Taft; 1952 Eisenhower vs. Stevenson; 1964 Johnson vs. Goldwater; 1976 Carter vs. Ford; 1980 Reagan vs. Carter; 2008 Obama vs. McCain.
