GuardianFilms puts the rubber to the road

Comedian and Air America Media host Marc Maron joins the team that brought you the New Hampshire primary and Super Tuesday documentary series as we hit the highway for a new election road show, this one stretching from coast to coast.

We'll be travelling, in true American style, in two RVs. Packed inside, along with Marc Maron, will be veteran investigative journalist James Ridgeway, who'll be blogging from the road, and a team of film-makers and editors headed by Patrick Farrelly and Kate O'Callaghan, producing daily short videos from the cities and farms, truck stops and mega-churches, country clubs and soup kitchens of the United States. We'll be joined by Guardian correspondents, politicians, and assorted opinion-makers as we try to understand the forces shaping the US vote in 2008

From Los Angeles to Washington, DC - via the battleground states of Nevada, New Mexico, Colorado, Missouri, Indiana, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Virginia - we'll be looking at the key issues and inviting ordinary citizens into our "Truth Booth" to tell us which candidate can snatch a divided and demoralised nation back from the jaws of disaster.
