AKPD Message and Media is an American political and media consulting firm catering to Democratic candidates and related causes. Formerly Axelrod and Associates, it is named after its four original partners: David Axelrod, John Kupper, David Plouffe, and John Del Cecato. All four were members of Barack Obama's 2008 presidential campaign, with Plouffe serving as campaign manager, Axelrod as senior strategist, and Del Cecato as media advisor. Axelrod, who is personally close to Obama, left AKPD to serve as Senior Advisor to the President in the Obama Administration and sold the firm to Kupper, Del Cecato and Larry Grisolano. AKPD's advertising and strategy have been widely credited for significantly altering elections in their clients favor.〔http://talkingpointsmemo.com/dc/branding-bill-de-blasio-inside-the-message-machine-that-made-nyc-s-next-mayor〕 TIME has praised one of their most talked about ads, "Dante," as "The Ad that Won the New York Mayor's Race.".〔http://nation.time.com/2013/09/11/the-ad-that-won-the-new-york-mayors-race/>〕 AKPD's offices are located in Chicago, Washington DC, and New York where it has recently expanded its presence by partnering with Bully Pulpit Interactive and Analytics Media Group.〔http://www.bpimedia.com/one-year-after-helping-re-elect-president-obama-political-firms-expand-presence-in-new-york/〕 ==Notable clients== *Barack Obama during the United States presidential election, 2008 and the United States presidential election, 2012〔 *Bill de Blasio during the New York City Mayoral Election, 2013〔(The Best Ad of 2013 ), Official AKPD website (December 11, 2013)〕 *Rahm Emanuel during the Chicago mayoral election, 2011〔 *Deval Patrick during the Massachusetts gubernatorial election, 2010〔 *John Edwards during the John Edwards presidential campaign, 2004〔 *Herb Kohl during the United States Senate election in Wisconsin, 2006 *Yulia Tymoshenko during the Ukrainian presidential election, 2010〔(Firm With Obama Ties Cashes in Overseas ), Newsweek (October 19, 2009)〕 *Francisco de Narváez and Republican Proposal during the Argentine legislative election, 2009〔(AKPD Congratulates Francisco de Narváez and the Union-PRO list for Stunning Victory ), Official AKP&D website (July 8, 2009)〕 *Paul M.
