This weekend title is about the mad election campaign in the United States. The Europeans find it difficult to understand the hardness with which election campaign is managed in America. But this is the same mentality behind it with which the USA has risen to the economic superpower. The title is written by our US correspondents, merged by author Jens Münchrath, who was traveling to the Swing States for weeks. The great cover comes from Samson Goetze, which otherwise illustrates the posters of the Karl May Festival.
