Eagle: The Making of an Asian-American President
is a political seinen manga by Kaiji Kawaguchi serialized in ''Big Comic'', a manga magazine published by Shogakukan. Its plot, following a Japanese American senator as he runs for president of the United States, was thoroughly researched by Kawaguchi during several weeks of travel in the U.S. during the campaigns for the 2000 election.
==Plot==
''Eagle'' takes place during the 2000 presidential election. Some of the characters are entirely original, such as Senator Kenneth Yamaoka (D-NY) (ケネス・ヤマオカ ''Kenesu Yamaoka'') and the series protagonist, Japanese journalist Takashi Jo (城 鷹志 ''Jō Takashi''). Others are fictionalized depictions of real people, such as campaign advisor George Tuck (based on Dick Tuck), Democratic Vice-President Al Nore (based on Al Gore), and the current president Bill Clayton (ビル・クライトン ''Biru Kuraiton'', based on Bill Clinton), who hails from Arkansas, has faced multiple scandals, and has a politically ambitious wife named Ellery Clayton (エラリー・クライトン ''Erarī Kuraiton''). Kawaguchi was reported inspired to create the manga after watching the 1992 documentary ''The War Room''.
''Eagle'' was nominated for five Eisner Awards, including Best New Series, Best Continuing Series, Best Writer/Artist, and Best U.S. Edition of Foreign Material in 2001, and again in 2002 for Best U.S. Edition of Foreign Material. Writer Warren Ellis called it "A wild tangle of sex and secrets and hate and Machiavellian intrigue. It's ''Primary Colors'' in a really bad mood."
