In Summer 2009, something stirred in America. After Barack Obama and a Democratic congress swept to power promising a new era of hope and change, out of nowhere a citizens protest movement emerged that threatened to derail their agenda.

Astroturf: get it?) groups, designed to put corporate messages in the mouths of seemingly independent citizens.
